Now in Korea

by Maringue » Mon Mar 14, 2011 6:19 am

I was flipping channels and found a station that has live broadcast of a professional StarCraft match. Apparently there is a whole league here and they make a lot of money. The announcers were freaking intense towards the end of the match.

Oh, and getting drunk here is super cheap. A 3 liter pitcher of beer (normal US pitchers are 2 L) costs about 8 bucks. A bottle of Soju (google it) costs something like $2 or $2.50. The tab of 4 people getting hammered plus a bunch of snack food came to about 65 bucks. Such a nice change from Singapore where a pint was $10 when you found it for cheap.

GSL (Starcraft 2)

I'm definitely bringing Soju back home, but you have to come visit me to have some.

Oh, and just checked the converted amount for my dentist bill (they are way cheaper in Korea). it turned out to be 1337 dollars.

You can probably get some at an import store. They have them all over the place where I live.

Good luck with that; I can guarantee that Customs won't let you bring it in by yourself.
I'd suggest that you should have some shipped to your house, but apparently you can't ship alcohol internationally unless you're a business, so I guess you're out of luck.

P.S. you misspelled "meringue."
