Weekend trip to Gunsan and simultaneously pics of my shaved head...

I took a brief weekend trip to Gunsan (a nice coastal town) to meet up with Joanna. We eat at "Dasarang" a delicous chiken and pizza place. I ate cheese pizza, fries and an interesting fruit salad. I stayed in a hotel for 45 bucks. It was super swank and apparently it was one of those "urban" hotels where one goes to take care of business. I learned this because of the goody bag I received upon checking in. It had special gels for men and women and of course protection...




This is the fruit salad we ordered...the bananas were covered in a special mayonnaise dressing (we learned this upon tasting it)



I'll try it


I convince myself that if I apply the dressing to my lips, like lip gloss, I may convince myself that I have been eating this stuff for ages and in fact enjoy it and will not let it go to waste.

Same piece

Yeah I'm done with the fruit salad... and profile shot of my new hairshave

Joanna and I goof wherever we go but in this shot its all her


We killed the pizza and fried deliciousness but you can still see the fruit salad in the background

My swank hotel bed

The room came with a soft soft robe, computer with internet access, flat screen t.v., water cooler, free juice...all for $45. (no breakfast though)

Mega bathroom...my blog may be filled with tons of bathroom shots

That is not my t.v. that is the skylight

Sleeping...Maybe

Joanna made me wait in the cab while she went to her place to get what I have yearned for

Waiting...

Waiting and posing a la 6 year old Lola

That is genuine happiness on my face
