It was a pretty uneventful day today. I went to Dongdaemun Market finally but it took me two hours to find it. I had gone into some other 8 floor building stores and looked around before actually finding the market. When I did get there I was to tired to really look around so I decided to go back home. Plus I'm sick so it wasn't all the great. I love shopping and yet I hate it as well.
I went to a different jimjabang tonight at the Hotel Prima. It was okay but not worth the $16.50. I had gone into the sauna and then into a cold tub then a hot one. Towards the end I wasn't feeling very well and figured I needed water stat. Well once I actually got to the water cooler I was starting to feel dizzy and my hands and feet went numb. I took one drink and went down to the floor. I've never fainted or passed out before but I'm sure this was close to it. I would close my eyes for a few seconds and then make myself open my eyes to drink more water. The Korean ladies where all, "Are you alright" and I pretty much just said I needed water. Kind of embarressing sitting on the floor naked by the water cooler but what are you going to do.
I made it home fine. I figure it's probably a combination of eating like crap today, not drinking enough water and being sick. I wanted to get a salad but opted to just eat some cereal. It has vitamins in it. . . Hopefully sight seeing will be okay tomorrow. Maybe I should just stay home and lay in bed.

So did you make it inside this time?
I'm sorry you have been sick. It's so great you get to be with your Korean family. Are you able to communicate with them. I can't imagine being in another country, you are so brave.
Love grandama
hi ashley i can post comments now
(this is rachael typing)
it looks like your not digesting food well.. you need to take some tums or rolaid.. you can go to drug store and buy hwalmeoungsu.. for your stomach if you feel like you need to throw up.. ask and hopefully will sell to you without perscription.. you can ask when you go say your stomach is uncomfortable with dizziness :)
hopefully you will feel better
love you mom
I bet you felt really sick since your body kept changing temperatures so fast. The whole going from hot, to cold to whatever. Water was a good idea. It's good you decided to take it easy. Do they have propel there? If you feel like you need some nutrients,but don't want to eat you can drink that or even pedialite... however you spell it. It's that kid stuff that is a liquid filled with vitamins. They probably have something like that there.
I hope you are feeling better :)
