Some recent pictures!





Ok the Mega mac and big mac where taken in Japan. And let me tell you this...of the 9 times I have been to Nippon....they do fast food right!!! Korea tends to Koreanize, and I have yet to see what India does....Mumbai....perhaps I will get a chance then. Another thing to note  about India and fast food.....no beef offends Hindus, no pork offends Muslims, but chicken is ok. 

It is a good thing that I love chichen, and fish burgers. I do miss that massive Mega Mac.....ofcourse when I ate it I counldnt eat anything for hours afterwards. 

You can see George playing with his cousin! Boy is he cute! 

In Japan Yogita and I saw a parking garage.....it was like ...expensive I forgot how much. I do miss the orderliness that you can find in abundance in Japan, and....and in Korea you get a really strange hybrid of what Japan has (Koreans hate the Japanese ALOT, but copy them in so many ways!!!!!). India....chaos rules the day on roadways....it is an orderly chaos when you have stayed here long enough, but...it is chaotic just the same. Omorro, if you drive here the way you would in the States.....your car would get damaged. If you drive like you would in the States in Korea....you could save your life.....I speak from experience. Most fatalities that I have heard that are traffic related seem to mostly larger vechicles hitting peds, or rickshaws (might as well be the same as a ped).

Ok we have more work today, all in all, I love this crazy place!!!!!!! I'm actually 90% over the culture shock now......

tata....oh and Sun and Rira...your phones SUCK!!!!!!!!

Oh Jemal, My respectable teacher. How are you doing? I am still alive and feel sorry that I haven't been posting a comment on your blog. As I said, I traveled East coast. NYC is so hot. After I finished my journey, I felt like Seattle is cold. A lot of buildings, people, cars cause hot temperature. I stayed in NYC for 6nights 7days. You know? I love harlem. I stayed in Harlem for A half of my journey. Harlem was so different than I thought. There are a lot of African immigrant people who really work hard for better future. I can notice that they have little bit different English accent. If I go into deep inside, it could be dangerous, but I think people don't neccesarily need to explain Harlem as a dangerous place. I really enjoyed a Jazz bar in Harlem. I couldn't find any h2o performances. I guess you are a philly so that you have been in NYC so many times, but If you have a chance to go to Harlem, I recommend Enjoying Jazz performances in harlem.

I also went to philly. I am so sorry that I didn't take any pictures in Philly. Hmm..... My friend moved out to philly for school before I went to. I just met my friend in Philly then just took a rest at my friend's house. Do you know intersection of 69th St and Market St?? ,which is the final destination of Philly subway. Honestly, I was shocked when I went to a bar to buy a pack of beer, which is near 69th St. People smoked inside of the bar. It could be ok in Korea, but I had not seen any bars, which inside smoking is allowed. Philly is so different than another state. I was so surprised that I couldn't buy any liquors at a Market. I needed to go to a BAR OR a LIQUOR SHOP TO GET A PACK OF BEER.

Hey, Jemal. How are you doing?? It is pretty good to see George on your blog. Most guys, who you know would love George just like me. George looks pretty good. You are right, Lotteria is particulary Koreanized fast-food. Do you like that?? Well, I love McDonald in the state. I don't really go to Burgerking even though Burgerking is the nearest shop from my home. McDonald's french fry is the best!!!

It was really good to be on the financial district in NYC before a lot of news magazines started talking about Financial disaster. I actually don't know much about Economy becuase I don't really interested in, but if I turn on TV, I mostly can watch News about the financial crisis. I am Hoping Every U.S citizen gets through it. The crisis doesn't only affect US economy. Can you vote for the presidential election?? I am sure if you can vote, your choice should be great. My teacher gave me homework, which is watching the presidential debate, then write a few sentences. I am really confused about what I am supposed to write down.

You should go to the financial district in NYC, then touch the balls. I heard that it is normal saying that touch the bull's ball before you buy stock. You will be success. HHAHAAA.

Then people must be touching those balls! LOL
