epik girls hit the town

friday was the first time that kat and deb were in gimhae at the same time since my first weekend here, way back in september. that weekend was rather uneventful, since i didn't even know where i was, so i had to show them a good time... and i think i did.

they arrived around 9 and after some small exchange of gifts, and some chatter we headed out to the OB Camp to meet the other ex-pats of gimhae. - on a side note, kat had been to costco last week and picked up some cheese (two pounds of it!!!), a giant kilo bucket of salsa, and some yucatan guacamole!!!! thanks kat! Deb brought me some pepperoni, blackberry jam, and lemon juice from the american army base that she visited.

kat at the OB...
Cecily, me, and Emma (a couple of my gimhae girlies)
Doug (i named him that) and Rob... drunk before they arrived
Kim and Bill
the proof that Scott FINALLY came out with us... been trying to get him out since september.

After hanging at the OB, we headed to norae-bang! i love norae-bang. if you haven't read previous posts on it, it's basically karaoke... except you get your own private room for you and your friends - think 'Lost in Translation'. at first it was just Abbey, Scott, Kat, Deb, and I... then at around 3 am the rest of the gang showed up... it was quite the spectacle... around 15 waegooks (foreigners) singing up a storm of foreign songs... ie. loads of fun.

Abbey and me singing "Piano Man" by Billy Joel. (sorry it's a little out of focus...)
Bohemian Rhapsody... need i say more?

it was a great night, and for the first time in a long time, i was out until 4:30 AM. i probably could have stayed longer, but this cold has been lingering and i was starting to get tired... my throat was killing me, and the waegooks were getting out of control! but i had a great time, and managed to show deb and kat that gimhae is actually pretty cool... thanks to everyone for a great night!
