One of My Last Days In Seoul

Today I went:

-to the fortune teller. He was a fail, he says I was born at 6:06 Am based on my life events but I'm pretty sure it wasn't 6:06. Also he didn't say I would be a millionaire also fail. Then he said starting when I am 40 I will be rich and I would have $20,000 in the bank a year. I was like um I'm from NYC, you do realize that $20K will buy you nothing! So basically you are saying I'm going to be poor. He also said my peak career wise is going to be at 40-50 and I was like what? I'm still going to be working when I'm 50? Ugh where is my mega millions? So basically he told me the worst fortune ever. He also said I'm getting married when I'm 34 which is just way too old for me. OK I just sound like a lazy girl who wants to get rich quick and I suppose I am. I just think Im too American to buy into these fortune teller, future in the stars nonsense that Asians believe in. I might as well believe in predestination and be a Calvinist.

-The hair salon- My hair is super fobbed out now. Dyed, side bangs, girlish. I am so Korean.

-to my optometrist to say bye, sad. They were amazing. Def going back on every Seoul trip.

-to citibank to close my account. This was the saddest of all. Citibank in Apgujeong is amazing. I highly recommend if you live here. All the employees know me because my Korean sucks but they are always so sweet and helpful, unlike any bank in NYC. In the summer they have ice cream. I was sold. They gave me a teddy bear to say goodbye, a teddy bear dressed in a green santa suit? I guess leftovers from Christmas?? Um, thanks I guess? I dont get it, do they think I'm 12 or do they think I'm old enough to have a kid?

-dinner with cousins, ugh I guess I have to pay for all 4 of them? I hate this oldest person pays thing. I am not cheap its just that I am ALWAYS the oldest cousin here out of all my family, so I always pay. I suppose I do make the most money. But what is this socialism? Ok fine I am cheap.

-Clubbing later. my last party here in Seoul.
