A Giant Captain

Saturday I didn’t wake up early because I wanted to relax. I pretty much watched Captain America in theatres and enjoyed some caramel popcorn with Chris and Nav. For 4900 wons, it’s well worth the popcorn. I need to find out if they allow refills because I would have totally done that. It was that addicting. The movie itself was great and after the credits we saw the Avenger’s trailer with Hulk, Ironman, Thor and Captain America! Along with Hawkeye! An epic 2012 movie to watch and it will be released on May 4th (two days before my birthday). It’s a must see. I believe there is a reboot of Spiderman and Batman movie around that time as well. After the movie, we hung out played some intense darts games and mingled with people who we knew. We also hung out at KSU with Victoria and her friends who we met for the first time. One of Victoria's friend came to Korea a day before we did (June 24th) and he's from South Africa! Great time overall but I came home super late and slept right away because I was that tired.
On Sunday, I went to my first ever Busan Lotte Giants Game. The ticket price was 7000 wons for the outfield and we get to sit wherever we want to. It’s based on first come first serve and the seats were wonderful. Just look at the pictures for yourself to experience the view that I had. The Sajik Stadium is supposed to be the best stadium in all of Korea, the fans were engaging and active the whole time, and the fans are allowed to bring food from outside! People brought pizza boxes and chicken wings and ate inside the stadium. No premium prices for food like in Toronto. The drinks were the exact same prices outside as the inside so no real profits. The experience was amazing even though we lost 3-1 to the Samsung Lions (the best team in the league). I am already looking forward to catching another game, and this time I will be more prepared.



One more week of summer camp before I am on vacation! Jeju Island and Seoul are the top two destinations but I’ll keep you posted about my plans. Well, technically I get off on Tuesday, August 16th because I had to make up a day and I couldn’t make it up on the Monday because it is a national holiday here – Independence Day from Japan.
