Noraebang is the greatest thing ever!

I was in a foul mood at work yesterday because of something. MJ (the really cute Korean I teach) sent me a text saying I needed cheering up so we went out for a couple of drinks. At about ten o'clock Mike joined us and a couple of beers turned into a few soju cocktail shots and more beer and MJ brought her sister out. Then we decided to hit the Noraebang! A Noraebang is basically a Korean karaoke place. You rent a room for an hour and can have drinks served to you in that room. We decided it was Mike and I versus the girls. I think we were the winners with such wonderful songs as Wake me up before you go go, Africa, Obladi oblida,Sweet Caroline, Hey Jude and Boxer. It was great fun and we finished up eating some lovely gogi mandu. The best part is this all happened only two blocks from my apartment building so we didn't have far to go!!
Not sure what I'm going to do this weekend. I'm thinking of buying a Korean cookery book and trying out some stuff! We have football training on Sunday and I think my leg is finally ok to play, that's exciting!

Factoid: There are more than 15,000 kinds of rice.
