    Life in Korea sounds luxurious.
    I worked a double today. I didn't clean the gutters or pick up the sticks in the yard like I intended. Had some pizza rolls and waffle fries for lunch. I don't really eat breakfast and idk probs eat a cup ramen for dinner if I get hungrly later before bed. Fuck, I forgot I still need to gas. I'ma go do that on the way home from work tonight.
    So, yeah, that's life in America.

    AAHHHH!! I am so excited you mentioned itaewon!! I lived there for some time to teach English! I remember the Air Force Base and I remember a restaurant called The American! We were craving cheeseburgers, so we went there for some! Not very good as I remember!

    Cute outfits! Good to know about the shoulders. Helps me know to make sure to bring light cardigans or something for over there. I've seen another content creator in Japan coming into similar problems with her cute tank top outfits.

    Revealing your arms/ shoulders in Korea is definitely not scandalous as you call it. just saying, not starting an argument here

    Thank you very much for sharing this. You are so pretty. May I ask how can I meet some girls to hang out with me when I will travel alone to Seoul? Because not sure if it is dangerous to go to the nightclub alone.
