Summer Means the Beach

Summer is here once again. Unless I am on the beach, I do not think I like the summer season very much. Of course, I am still getting used to summer in July and August instead of March and April, like in the Philippines. It is so hot outside and climbing the hill to the dorm is really a sacrifice. If we did not need to save our money for the trip to Japan, I would have asked my friends to go to the East Sea and spend some days in a cottage near the beach. I wish I were one of those people who own Myrtle beach vacation rentals so that I can spend some part of the summer on the beach and when I get tired of the heat, I can have it rented and earn some money to travel to a colder place. It would be like having the best of both worlds.

Full Again

I am so full again. A friend treated us to Todai’s, a Japanese restaurant in Myeongdong. Wendy and I were “casing” out CGV and Lotte Cinema for the Chungmuro International Film Festival so that we would know where to go when we will watch the film entries. The first time we ate at Todai’s was in the COEX branch. It is really hard to resist eating when you are in a buffet restaurant. I ate a lot again because the food was great and we had to get Bob’s money’s worth (it was a treat, as usual). Unfortunately, I was not able to get the crème brulee dessert but at least I was able to taste Wendy’s share. After tasting it, I missed leche flan. Waaahhh! Now I really need appetite suppressants. I just love to eat. It is really bad for the figure.
