So my previous blog, I was at Atlanta, Georgia and then I went down to Savannah and let me tell you, savannah is not that great. Atlanta was so much better, koreans were everywhere, it was cool because asians were the majority and the whites and blacks were the minorities.

When I was down there, I stayed for only 1 night but it was very fun. We went to the H Mart, some huge oriental market with a mini restaurant, I ate a bowl of 짜짱면 for 5 bucks, I have never seen that kind of food so cheap but so good! I hung out there with my family, bought some stuff and then went to Jeju, a 찜질방, which is a type of sauna/public bathtub like place. Now, I havent been to korea or anything like Korea in 5-6 years, when I went to korea in 2002, Korea was so tight in the world cup btw, but anyway those 찜질방's are pretty new. In there, its pretty normal to go sleep there and so our family did for 25 bucks. But as I stepped in the men's locker, the first thing I see is a man naked and I'm like WTFFFF. Then I see alot of other koreans doing the same and even another man drying his pubs with a blowdryer yeah like wtheck? I hesitate to take my clothes off and go in the room with showers and the tubs and saunas but I do. When I went in, naked koreans everywhere and even a couple of white people, they were talking in german or something and looked sorta gay. My eyesight isnt very good but for once I was glad I played so much starcraft so I didnt have to see everybody's thingies hanging out. Getting out was the best part, but it was a new, different experience and I hope to never do it again.

That's pretty standard for all old guys, I'm not sure why though. >< You can go to a gym in the US and every old man in the locker room will do everything possible including shaving or brushing their teeth before putting on their underwear. :X It's just more noticable in Korea and Japan cause there's alot more old people in changing rooms to spas/baths. :x

The Jimmy Carter Satellite Blvd/Pleasant Hill area is like new Korean yuppie central.
There are small pockets of pretty thorough korean in there. Of course he spent his time within a 2 mile radius pretty much, but It's the "new korea town" supposedly.

I still like my ghetto buford -_-;;
