That is how my day has been, which I find very frustrating.
My friend suddenly decided last night that she wanted to go in to Seoul today. I asked if I could tag along and she told me yes. Then, she suddenly decided to change her mind. I didn't mind that she wanted to go alone. What I minded was her telling me yes, then changing it to no. That really bugs me. Then, to top it all off, she was sending me messages that seemed rather condescending to me. She was telling me I could go to Seoul by myself and meet up with a friend. It seemed to me like she felt the need to tell me what I already knew, and give me her permission. She said that she wasn't being condescending when I told her that is how her messages came across. Then she told me that I was just annoyed and taking everything she said the wrong way. My response? Okay. I was over the conversation. Her final message about the topic was a snarky comment about me being condescending and she was finished with this conversation and was shutting off her phone.
I did go to Seoul by myself and I had a really nice time. I went to Changgyecheon, which is a beautiful man-made stream that runs through part of Seoul. Then I went to Namdaemun market followed by Myeongdong. Visiting all of those places was really nice. I just meandered at my own pace. I hardly spoke a word all day, unless I was purchasing something, and it was awesome.
Now for the ending bad part. I took the bus in, so I had to take the bus back and we got stuck in traffic. So, the trip that should have taken an hour took an hour and a half, and I was going nuts by the end! It didn't help that I wanted to glomp the guy sitting next to me. He was not distractingly attractive. I wanted to glomp him because he was a warm, living, breathing guy. I have not been on a date in over 5 years, and I am rather lonely. It doesn't help that I am a very physically affectionate person and I have no one to show that affection to. My family is half a world away and I don't have any friends really close to where I live in Korea. But enough of the pity party.
I had a fun drive from Hongcheon, where the bus dropped me off, to my home out in the countryside. I had the windows rolled down and the music blasting. It was great.
Now, I should probably go meditate so that I can calm down enough to actually sleep tonight. I just needed to rant about my day. ^^ So, how was your day? Feel free to share. I made you read through my day, the least I can do is return the favor.
Final note I will leave you with, I found a really good song on the way home tonight. I didn't realize it was on my Zune until it played. It is called Unmistakable by the Backstreet Boys. It perfectly describes how I am feeling about love right now. What is your favorite song of the moment?
