I just got to Seoul, actually I got to a city a little west of it and checked into a best western. The flight was about 14 hours long (the detroit to tokyo flight) and it was definatly rough. I was up for around 24 hours and when I finally got out of the seoul airport, I found out the place I was going to stay was full. So I finally caved in a rode a bus to the best western which gouged me with their steep prices.

When I got to the room in the BW, I couldn't figure it out. It was pitch black in the room and the only light that would work was in the hallway. Unluckily, it was a motion sensor light so it would stay on for about 15 seconds which was just long enough to get me lost in the room looking for other light switches. Mix that with being so incredibly tired and I was having a hard time. I spent about 7 minuets going back and forth unil I finally figured it out.

I had to put my door keycard into a slot that was beside the door in the room. This allowed all the lights/tvs/ect to be powered when I was in the room....man

So I found this big touch pad that controls the entire room (lights/tvs/etc) and without it, I'd be sunk. Next, I got ready to take a shower....to bad the toilet has about a foot clearance from the wall which would only let a 4 year old pass by. Oh, yeah and also the toilet paper dispense cut off another 4 inches from you clearance to get to the shower.

After a shower I passed out on the bed...then I sleep walked. Great! Nothing like sleepwalking in the middle of the night when you're incredibly tired. Once I realized I was sleep walking, I took the blanked back from the front door (yeah i know... i do strange things when I sleep walk) and went to sleep.

This morning, I packed my bookbag and arranged all my other junk into my suitcases. Then went off to find breakfast. After a ton of walking, I decided on a little grocery store since I saw a guy drinking a little milk that would you have when you're in grade school. So I got that and a muffin, ate it and got ready to go.

Now I'm going to try to see if I can fit all my junk into the 602 bus that heads for Ewha so I can drop off my luggage.

Until then!
