So I went up to visit Rachel for the weekend because she was a little lonely up in Ulsan but after getting up there i dont understand this sentiment. Ulsan is awesome! However the 6 hour bus ride to get there was not! But I did the tourist thing for the first day and it was cool but the second day was really awesome. We went to a foreignor bar called tombstone which was a little lame and dead but we hung out and it was cool for that. But we met some random guy there and he brought us to a cool place called benchwarmers. It was hopping. There was a foreignor band there and I shit you not...they played the HIP! Seriously now...Tragically Hip! It was wicked...I met a shit ton of cool canadians and it was awesome. Actually the bartender/owner was from Niagara Falls and went to McMaster! He gave me free shots all night...it was a sloppy night lol...drank WAY too much. What are the chances you meet someone from your home town in a small bar in Korea. It was really awesome!

seriously now...Tragically Hip!
