SOONDAE TRUCK

2015/07/03 / Nic / 7 Comments

Twice a week the Soondae Ahjussi visits nearby with his soondae truck. Now I’ve mentioned before that I don’t like soondae, but I’ve had a change of heart and now I quite like it! I don’t like eating it at open markets where it can have a strong smell and looks like it’s been sitting there for a while…haha, I can still be picky. I only started liking it after trying it at this soondae truck because it’s so fresh and there are different flavours. Hugh has always loved it though and it’s one of his favourite foods.

Soondae can also be romanised as “sundae” but I think that spelling can cause some problems for foreigners who are expecting ice cream…

Highschool Boys

So while I was thinking that those boys shouldn’t be drinking like that (must have forgotten I was in Korea! haha) Hugh had only thought about bribing them so they wouldn’t call him ahjussi. He doesn’t like to be faced with the reality of his age and how the younger generation now view him. I understand it, I hate being called ahjumma…. but he’s going a lot further to still feel young!

Remember Number

You know when someone is trying to count or memorize a number and it’s really obnoxious to yell random numbers to make them lose track or forget? That’s what I was doing but my Korean number skills are atrocious so it sounded ridiculous. Korea has 2 numbering systems which can be confusing if you are bad at even the single numbering system in English… like me… I have maths phobia.

Thank you everyone who is subscribed to our YouTube channel!

It was great to see so many people at SeoulTube, it’s just that the weather is unfortunate. Hugh had a great time there, and I did as well, but due to health problems and finding those situations overwhelming, I disappeared a lot and left Hugh to do the talking. He is the social butterfly and I’m the introvert. Shout out to the small group of people that kindly hung out with me in a quieter coffee shop for a while! We filmed this video today and edited luckily before I ended up bedridden with pain again. The pain has eased enough for me to sit up and type this, so that’s good. I was trying to vlog as well today, but had to give that up. I’ll continue that vlog later in the week.

Thank you Aimee for sending all that lovely stuff!

Don’t Step On

I like frogs but I have this paranoia about accidentally kill them. The feeling of stepping on a frog and crushing it is a big fear of mine. Unfortunately there are lots of frogs at the moment because the rice has been planted so many of the fields have water on them. Great habitat for frogs, but makes for terrifying walking at night.

Wonderful married life conversation there…

Lesson

He has so little faith in me… haha.

Actually I’ve had insomnia lately so he knew I was sleep deprived and likely to dissolve into tears at anytime. But the lesson was fine! It’s all in Korean so of course it’s hard for me to understand everything the teacher is saying, but it wasn’t a traumatic experience.
