My week in pictures March 2012

26 Mar

Sunday night at Nocturna with Jinjoo! Asian glasses!

Drinking practice for my upcoming birthday party this weekend….

Lunch at Sushi Sasabune! They remodeled the place since the last time I’ve been there. I love the tree decoration and wall panels.

Of course, I had to get the Omakase! Here’s some of the courses.

Ahi and hamachi! It’s so fresh that it melts in your mouth.

Salmon with ikura and Aji!

3 kinds of oysters: with Ikura, with ponzu sauce, and one baked.

Lobster!

The main event, Toro!!! It’s like heaven in every bite. Actually it’s so soft you don’t even need to chew, it just melts like butter.

We had 2 kinds of sake: The specially made Sasabune sake and Kubota Manju.

The Sasabune sake is full bodied with lots of flavor. It’s best served at room temperature.

While the Kubota Manju is very light, smooth, and served chilled.

Sake jelly for dessert. Light and refreshing!

On Thursday I went to Crazy, Sexy, Standard at The Standard. It’s a huge networking party event. My table that I shared with my friend Toby was in a good spot on the dance floor.

On Saturday, I went to a Karaoke house party at my friend Gerald’s friends house up on Tantalus. I don’t really go up there much so I took a picture of the really nice view.

It was a potluck party so there was lots of yummy food. Lots of Korean food!

I swear the bar area had more alcohol than most real bars.

Gerald’s famous chocolate shots.

Cheers!

Today I ate lunch at a restaurant called Hyungjae. I ordered one of my favorite Korean dish — soondubu jjigae (순두부찌게). It contained a lot of clams and squid, but was lacking a bit in flavor.

Now i’m going to edit videos and practice singing! I want to sing this song the next time I go Karaoke. I like reading the translation to Korean songs so that I can improve my Korean comprehension.

It’s not love
This isn’t love
It’s just your obsession
Wherever
Whatever I do
It’s frightening
The you who watches me

I follow in your shadow
I make a phone call
I become thrilled at the sound of your shaking breath
My heart runs after your increasingly quick steps
I think I’ll go crazy
The long night gets darker
Under the dead streetlamp in front of your house
I’m watching you through the crack in your window
Until the night ends
Come on and find me
You keep playing a suffocating game of hide-and-seek with me
You, you, you
You’re inseparable from me

Have you gone crazy?
Why are you like this?
Please just leave me alone now
Seeing you is suffocating
Please disappear from my sight

You can never break away from me
You have no one to love but me
Try to escape
Wherever you are
I can see you
You know deeply
You can never break away from me
You have no one to love but me
Look at me now
I don’t wanna cry no more, more

Get lost
Just back off
I really can’t breathe
Wherever I go
Wherever I am
It’s frightening
The you who follows me

A hundred times
Tens of thousands of times
I’ve called you
But why, why is there no answer?
Did you forget?
It’s already been a thousand days since we met
I prepared a gift you’d like
I sit on the street you frequently travel
I’m waiting for you
I know my love
Don’t call it obsession, you don’t know love
Don’t say I’ve gone crazy
You don’t know my heart
You can never be separated from me

Have you gone crazy?
Why are you like this?
Please just leave me alone now
Seeing you is suffocating
Please disappear from my sight

You know you want me too
You know you love me
Don’t run away from me
Cut the crap~
Get ahold of yourself and stop it
Let go of me now

This ain’t right
This isn’t love
It’s just hurts me, don’t be like this
I loved you
But I don’t now
Erase me from your memory

I don’t wanna cry no more, more

사랑이 아냐 이건 사랑이 아냐
너의 집착일 뿐이야
어디 있든지 내가 무얼 하든지
무서워 나를 바라보는 넌

[Rap]
너의 그림자를 따라 밟다
난 전화를 걸어
네 떨리는 숨소리에 짜릿해져버려
빨라지는 네 발걸음 따라 뛰는 내 심장
미칠 것만 같아
어두워지는 긴 밤
너의 집 앞 불 꺼진 가로등 밑에서
너를 본다 네 방 창문 틈에서
밤이 끝날 때까지
날 찾아봐 어서
나와 숨 막히는 숨바꼭질을 계속해
넌 넌 넌
넌 절대 내게서 떨어질 수 없어

[*]
미친거니 왜 그러니
이제 그만 나 좀 내버려둬
네가 보여 숨이 막혀
내 눈 앞에서 좀 사라져줘

[Rap]
넌 날 절대 벗어날 수 없어
넌 날 사랑 할 수밖에 없어
도망쳐봐 (I don’t wanna see you)
네가 어디에 있든지
난 볼 수 있으니
널 알지 깊숙이
넌 날 절대 벗어날 수 없어
넌 날 사랑 할 수밖에 없어
이제 날 봐
I Don’t Wanna Cry No More more

사라져 버려 그만 좀 꺼져 버려
정말 숨도 못 쉬겠어
어딜 가든지 내가 어디 있든지
무서워 나를 따라오는 너

[Rap]
수백 번이고 수만 번이고
전화를 걸었는데
왜 왜 넌 대답이 없어
잊었니
우리 만난 지 벌써 천일이 됐어
네가 좋아하는 선물을 준비했어
네가 자주 가는 거리에 앉아
널 기다리고 있어
내 사랑을 알아
집착이라 말하지마 사랑을 몰라 넌
미쳤다고 말하지 마
내 맘을 몰라 넌
넌 넌 넌
넌 절대 내게서 떨어질 수 없어
[*]
미친거니 왜 그러니
이제 그만 나 좀 내버려둬
네가 보여 숨이 막혀
내 눈 앞에서 좀 사라져줘

너도 날 원하잖아
나를 사랑하잖아~
나를 도망치지마
헛소리 좀 집어 치워
정신 차려 그만 좀 해
이제 나를 놓아줘

이건 아냐 사랑이 아니야
내게 상처뿐이야 이러지마
널 사랑 했지만
이제는 아니야
너의 기억에서 날 잊어줘

I don’t wanna cry no more, more

Mini photowalk

6 Sep

Today I went on a walk to reflect and contemplate life (haha lame attempt to sound poetic).

But really, walking is meditative. Usually, I walk up the mountain near my house to watch the sunset and get fresh air. There are lots of beautiful things to see and I constantly regret not bringing my camera. So this time, I brought my phone and snapped as many pictures as possible before my phone died (it was at 10%).

I climbed to the top of the mountain as fast as I could to sit and enjoy the view. It’s so beautiful watching the sunset from the same spot, yet it is always different. Different clouds, different lights, and different colors – it’s amazing what nature can create.

I also took pictures of my favorite garden up there. It has many different flowers and colors. My favorite is the lavender. Lavender feels romantic and has a fairytale feel. It also smells really good. I bought some recently for my garden. I want to try cooking chicken with it because it seems like a lighter version of rosemary. If it turns out well I’ll be sure to post pictures!
