St. Patrick's Day in Seoul:
Well it's now Saturday morning around 1:30 and I got back from Seoul not too long ago. I decided to go with the group of people to Itaewon for dinner at an Irish pub and I'm glad I went. The group was small, only Imane, Kelsey, April, and myself. Many people stayed near campus this evening because it was cold and rainy. Kelsey is American but of Irish decent and she researched the place for us and will actually be going there all day tomorrow again for music and dancing. Tonight was merely the pre-St. Patrick's Day party but it was nice and I'm glad I did something since I won't be going to Seoul again tomorrow. Since it was in Itaewon, the patrons in the restaurant were 80% foreigners like myself and I even heard the English teachers next to us at the bar talking about living in Austin, Texas. Upstairs there was a live band playing but we just ate at the bar and I had a really good chicken burger. Itaewon seems like the place to go for good or "normal" Western food. As well, we all did our celebrating with some Guinness. All in all, we basically just went to Seoul for dinner but it was well worth it, anytime we discover new places we all agree that we love it even more here.
