Fabric Shopping

Went shopping for bulk fabric to make curtains, and to help some friends create a giant projection surface. Got a recommendation from my friend Jamie to check out Dondaemun Shopoing Town. I had been before to do yarn shopping in the basement with some people, but I didn't know about the other five floors! They have every type of textile available. Too much. Some stalls will sew up your curtains or whatever, right on the spot. In addition to yarn and fabric, they also have buttons, zippers, and anything else you need to construct clothing, knits and curtains.
Go to Dongdaemun station (line 1 and 4) and go out exit 9. Building is right there, between exits 9 and 8. signs will confirm the identity. See location of this post for a map. Good luck.

D Cube City

D Cube city had a grand opening today! It's pretty fancy and big; not too useful yet. No movie theater, either. But it's right across the street and we're excited! More photos after the jump:

Autumn's coming back soon! I do love the summer and swimming ever so much, but Autumn is always the season I "fall" for.

One more




I am trying to use an app called "Blog Press" but it seems quite useless. This is from the helipad (really!) on top of my new apartment building.

It's always a party at the fried chicken place, and the Family Mart outside our apartment!
