- In case you hadn't noticed, I've added some pictures and videos to the blog, finally. I managed to find a usb cable downtown. Hopefully this adds some flair to this already ostentatious memoir.
See, someone told me that Blackberry hadn't made it to Korea yet, and therefore usb cables that fit smart phones are impossible to find. I was skeptical, because this place has wireless internet in the butthole of the country, HD tv's in grocery stores and nine of ten preschoolers at our academy have more expensive cell phones than we teachers do. Can't find a usb cable, you say? Pffft.
I visited Technomart. The clerk climbed a ladder to the attic, dusted off an old wooden box, cracked the lid and pulled out an ancient-looking, long-forgotten technology in Korea, known as the USB 2.0 cable. Then he laughed with his buddies over his Bluetooth Jawbone headset and played dominos with PC motherboards while watching his 3D television playing pirated movies that haven't even left the theatre yet. - I promised I'd provide some proof about the whacky pricing of groceries here.

These are ten dollar grapes. - This is me afraid to die.
This orange costs 3 and a half dollars.
Enjoy your eleven dollar watermelon.
Five apples? Sixteen dollars. Nineteen if you want green ones.
