I'm having so much FUN here with my sweetheart, I can't even begin to explain it! Everywhere I look, I see things Ive never seen before, and we get to laugh, and wonder over it together.

Like yesterday we were on the train, and it's full of typical teenagers with ipods or cel phones plugged into their ears, eyes glued to the screens. ( just like here in the U.S.)

But then we'd see something we WOULDN'T see but once in a blue moon back home.

EVERY SINGLE TIME an elderly person, pregnant person,or a mom with a toddler would step on board, the teens would stand up, eyes never leaving the screen of the ipod, and give up their seat. I mean INSTANTLY. Not one eyeball roll, not a "hey do you REALLY want my seat? * sigh.. if I HAVE TOooo....*etc, it was a beautiful site.

Something else I notice here is that everything is pleasing to the eye. All the things are displayed like art! The window of an ice cream place had a vase full of cones stacked up and arranged like flowers!

In the grocery stores, the produce sections are FULL of extremely FRESH produce, and almost ALL of it is organic and has TONS of displays cut up to look like works of art. Flowers, faces, you name it! I could look at it for DAYS! yes I need to tak pics dont I?? again I was just so in awe I forgot to whip out my camera. damnit.

I also enjoy how CLEAN the places are here! the trains are IMMACULATE! AND you dont see the people snacking or eating on the run like we do. ( probably why Americans are a lot 'fluffier' and Koreans are so stick thin huh?) No trash lying around, no graffiti, no gum stuck on the floors or seats.

BUT you WILL get run the hell over while your walking on the sidewalk, in the shops etc. And they arent being rude. Its just how they are. I've never been plowed down by so many little old ladies in my LIFE! lol

Today we're planning on goind to this neat show were some cooks do this cool show with drums, knives and food. They throw food around and slice it up. Sounds cool!! Probably more shopping, but NO MORE HEAVY ASS MINK BLANKETS!!
