I guess a couple of weeks have passed since the philippines. Seems like such a long time ago! I miss it. The weekend after we got back we had to blow up the pool (by we, I mean I) and go up to the roof to pretend we were back on the beach.

It was a relaxing weekend. We went to see Toy Story 3...such a cute movie. My eyes got a little misty at the end.
This past weekend, we made plans to go to a Smashing Pumpkins concert. It started at 7, so after having a yummy lunch Kristina's mom cooked for us, we went to Myeong dong to go shopping. We were in no rush at all. We figured there would be an opening band so we didn't have to be there right at 7. Well, we kinda lost track of time...we got there around 8:20. Turns out there was no opening band. When we went to buy tickets, they told us there was only 10 minutes left. We weren't about to spend $100 on 10 minutes so we just went to listen by the door. Kristina was really upset and on the verge of tears. She begged them to let us in for the last few minutes, and they eventually gave in! They played for 20-30 more minutes.



After the concert we were supposed to meet some friends at a casino nearby. Hey, we just saved $100 on concert tickets! haha We played roulette pretty much the whole time. We wanted to play blackjack but the people at the $5 table weren't moving. I had a good system worked out and I was doing pretty well at one point, but in the end I ended up breaking even, plus making $50 that some random guy gave Abby, Kristina, and I each! We were really excited about the free food. We ordered ice cream, sandwiches, cereal, etc. Of course we were there until 7:00 in the morning. Kristina finally got a chair at the blackjack table and she didn't want to leave. hahaha Needless to say, I didn't do much of anything sunday with the exception of an emart run because hello was out of food.
