Bling & Platoon Flea Market

Platoon are holding a special cold-weather themed flea market on Saturday, just in time for winter.  I love this flea market and it just so happens that it lands on Bonfire Night this month, meaning I can get some toasty second-hand knits to wrap up warm in ready for burning a fake man on a bonfire. #yay.

Koreans have limited or no knowledge of Guy Fawkes Night (they never got to part of our lovely Commonwealth) so I feel like I’m going to have to introduce it to the country in a big way.  I can't decide between dropping a load of sparklers off of Namsan Tower or shooting fireworks out of my bra (Haiii Katy Perry!)

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag?

Guilty Pleasures

I had a low-culture night yesterday, where I caught up on all the trashy TV shows I've missed while doing intelligently important or importantly intelligent things (like trying, really trying, to read Schindler's List).  I also indulged in some hard-hitting journalism during the mandatory ad breaks, like this article about Karoline Kurkova having no belly button. AND, I found an intriguing flashing picture of Katy Perry before and after photoshop on some random website.

In short, I acted like the ultimate stereotype of a teenager.  But whatevs, it felt decadent and dreamy and it made me zone out of reality for a period of time.  You know you're having the time of your life when you're watching 90210 and your most pressing thought is which fictional character is the hottest (Liam) and which one has the best dress sense (Ivy).

Other life-altering thoughts that crossed my mind last night:

1. Ivy has a slightly better dress sense than Gillian Zinser, who plays her.
2. They both wear a lot of hats.
3. I think I like hats.
4. Katy Perry looks alright without being photoshopped.
5. I probably 'would'.
6. For such a crap pop song, I really love Teenage Dream.
7. I would prefer no belly button to an outy belly button.
8. Schindler's List is like, really hard to read.

THE END.
