So I left off last with dinner at Dong Il Jang. After dinner, we went to Dit Gol Mok in Koreatown. It's this ghetto little drinking place which literally translates to "back alley." It's a shithole, but we love it here.
After a few bottles of soju, I brought out the Christmas crackers I brought from London. I love those things. I bought two boxes at M&S and I've been handing them out to everyone in LA.
We look fantastic!
Connie really liked her present.
Ta-dah! She finished!
Judy rocked her comb ghetto-style.
And then Sara and her friend Stone joined us. I swear, that's really his name...Stone. Weird huh?
And then so did Judy's brother Min Oppa aka the Sexiest Man Alive. That's my cousin Julie behind him. Korean girls do this thing of standing behind people so their face looks smaller.
The next day, we were MAD hungover. I went home and spent the rest of the day sleeping off the alcohol. I haven't been this drunk in a LONG time. These days with all my traveling, I hang out with people that I knew for like a week? I mean, you can't get all jacked up and expect them to take care of you. Unlike chilling with my cousin who I've known since the day I was born and know when I'm with her, I'm always safe. Also, when you're drunk you miss out on so much. When I used to be an accountant, I really needed that escape from reality, whereas these days, my reality's pretty good. So I don't drink as much anymore. My dad's really happy. Money well spent.
So on Friday, I took the train into Los Angeles. Yes, Los Angelenos, there is public transportation in Southern California, only no one uses it! I took the Metroline from Fullerton to Union Station and then from there, you take the Red Line to Hollywood and Highland. When I got up from Metro, I was HOME! I love Hollywood.
Hollywood Blvd.
I did some shopping. I went to Fredrick's of Hollywood this lingerie store, and I saw this guy who was so fat he was wheelchair bound watching some little Asian girlfriend (or some chic he's paying) with implant boobs trying on lingerie. ONLY in Hollywood does this kind of stuff happen. So seedy, so gross, so Hollywood.
Then my friend Miss Daisy picked me up and we went to Sushiya on Sunset Plaza for dinner. My sister works here as a waitress and the sushi guys are all Korean and they love me so they hook it up! This place is YUM. Get the spicy tunu chips. That's the busboy Jose posing behind us in the picture.
Me, Daisy, my sister Elaine, busboy Jose, and some other girl who waitresses at Sushiya.
Then me and Daisy went to Pinkberry...again. Pinkberry is the theme of my trip home.
I forgot my camera thing in London so I can't upload any of my other pictures. Next entry, will fill you in on my fabulous Christmas with my familia as well as on my trip to Paris.
I wish you all a safe and happy New Year's. Bonne Annee!
