The 38 hour day: two planes to seoulfood

I arrive at the airport 2 hours early because neither my aunt or myself could sleep. Since I was just sitting around watching episodes of Bam's spring break and drinking heinekins... I thought my myself "let's do this".

I check my bags and head to gate 12 with the only inconvenience being that the detector lady took my deodarant, I think she mistook it for a pipe bomb. So now I have a 30 hour adventure across the globe smelling like Richard Simmons after videotaping "sweating to the oldies". Still I manage to save a sexy middle-aged woman's day by assuring her she was about to get on the wrong plane, and that her flight to chicago was boarding as we speak. So she left and i put on my headphones and began to watch The Best of Borat and laughed histarically to myself in the airport before boarding the plane.

This might have just been the smallest plane I had ever just seen. It looked like a toothpick in Rosie O'donells mouth. It was so small we had to go outside to board the plane, because it couldnt reach the loading dock.

So I sat next a Peurto Rican family and listened to Dark Side of the Moon before arriving in Washington D.C, Dulles International Airport. I make my way to B32 where I try to sleep, but something caught my eye.... you will never guess what it was. It was two times better than gold, 3 times better than diamonds, and almost better than sex... It was a Chevy Chase Bank Machine! YES, I thought the same thing... is this really happening!

So after making a scene I returned back to my seat and slept for an hour before boarding the plane. This plane was something out of the future South Korean Air 747, it actually had a driving range, spa, rock climbing wall and to scale size monument of Rosie O'donell... thats how big it was!

Each seat had a t.v. that had an array of built in movies which included blockbuster hits such as; Talledega Nights, Click and Doctor Zhivago, but I opted to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and You, Me and Dupree ( I cant say no to Owen Wilson... im sorry its to damn hard.. it's to hard).
This t.v. also had built in games like TETRIS, golf and blackjack.

I opted for more leg room and took the aisle seat and I sat next to a Korean girl, which i forget her name (not off to a good start) who goes to Penn State taking microbiology, so obviously i brought up my thoughts on the direction chemistry is headed in relationship to.... im sorry i cant even finish this sentence i have no clue. Though she helped me gain a better understanding of the language and how it is formed.

The stewardess came around with drinks and I got milk and a spoon so I could mix my box of Peanut Butter Captain Crunch that I had been craving all year. Lunch came shortly after and I decided to try the korean meal which consisted of bulgogi babim (still not to sure what was in it), sea weed soup, with rice and fruit. I slept some more watched anoter movie and then dinner came, american style... a shrimp pasta, buns, coleslaw, chocolate cake and more buns.
The flight was right on time and She, Me and Dupree got off and i headed to immigration to check in.

My bags were the last to come off, literally my bag was the only and last one rotating on the belt and i left the station, with my korean friend she was kind enough to wait around with me. I went outside to look around for a unknown face holding a sign with my name on it... but no dice!
The girls family came and i made a few phone calls and finally reached my man Alex who was about 20 minutes away finally heard my name on the announcement to meet him at a desk. AHhh what a beautiful sight...

Alex and i started chatting as we waited for a bus ride, he set me up with a place to stay at the camp directors apartment, to which im writing this message right now. They have an amazing family, cute kids Chrisina and Joshua and I finally had a tradional Korean meal. This one was a lot better than the one on the plane. I had a 5 dish meal, bulgogi, rice, taap tyae (is how you would pronounce it), an egg and kim chi (koreas staple).

I am now in a rush to eat breakfast and dress before i take my trip cross country to Busan, I hear good things and apparently am living next to a mountain! I guess ill find out soon!

here's to The Mom and Pops, thanks for my life
