Part 1 of 2

It's been a while since my last blog, so here's a quick update of what has happened in no particular order:

I dated a Irish girl, Aideen, for roughly 2 months. We're not dating any longer but we are still friends.

I saw a bullfight in Cheongdo, which is in the middle of nowhere. It wasn't like a Spanish bullfight. Bulls weren't fighting matadors, nor were they killed. Instead, they fought each other, like two giants facing off in the ultimate battle for honor and glory. It reminded me of what it must've been like to see a gladatorial battle, but without humans, and much less blood. It was in a round stadium that all focused on a single circular dirt pit.

Bulls that weren't fit to fight could be found outside the stadium.

I also went to a cherry blossom festival, which was cool except for the fact that the trees hadn't blossomed yet. However, there were a bunch of vendors, like a minicarnival of shops. That part was cool, as was the view. Apparently it was really beautiful the next weekend, but it was enough to go there once.


More to follow later.
