Last Night me and Andrew met up with Mike K, Michelle and Kathy to grab Korean food. For me to get Korean food is rare, but I have to make that concession when I have guests in the city. It's just something you got to do here. Besides, the place I picked has food I actually like. It's spicy as hell and I usually end up drinking a ton of water, but I still love eating it. Oddly, Andrew was the only person NOT complaining about the spicy food. However, he's also from New Orleans so there's a good chance he's used to spicy stuff. If not for the abudance of pork, he's fit right in with Koreans and their love for hot food.
Me and Drew also got a chance to hit up a few game stores while we were downtown. He was amazed at the stuff the stores here carry (much like I was. . . I shudder to think what will happen when I visit Japan.) and we both ended up getting stuff here. I found a Hori arcade style fighting stick for the PS2/PSone. Because it was used and an older item, it was cheap (about $9.75 American). I got a converter for it and it now works on my PS3. Drew grabbed a PSP game for himself and then he got a few items for the crew back home.
I got to say it's nice to have part of the crew here. I have made some good friends here, but I can't replace the crew back home.
I'm supposed to go see "Watchmen" tonight. I have been looking forward to it. Despite the mixed reviews, I am curious as to how well the movie will translate the dense source material. I might post a mini-review about it, especially considering that I'm watching it over here instead back home. In the states, I would be watching it with a group of comic book heads who more than likely know it front to back. Here, I'm just curious.
