Korean Walnut Cake Love.
I was recently introduced to Korean walnut cake. Just west of me is Korea Town, and since moving to my new apartment, Korea Town and I have really hit it off. We are still in our honeymoon faze, I know, but really it's like they took all the great things about China Town and left out the horrible overcrowding, terrible smell, rotting produce and questionable animals hanging in the window.
I love lists so here we go:
1. Walnut cake - these things are delicious! you get 6 for $1.50 at Hodo Kwaja. I'm pretty you can only find this place by looking in the window because no signs in Korea Town are in english.
2. No english? Au
thentic stuff? Maybe.. but more importantly everywhere has pictures! And really who rather read and speak then look and point.3. Karaoke bars - there are two that I know of in Korean Town and I haven't been to one yet but I can't effing wait!
4. Cheap quality produce from independent grocers. With tofu! These little places make China Town look like a cheap hooker.

Drunk Dialing/Texting
3:59am... I just got into bed. I chugged a glass of water and took my contacts out, which are the two best things I can do at this moment. I forgot to grab my glass which makes this post very difficult to do but I think its time for a... wait for it... DRUNK POST.
I've been thinking about this for a while. Will the true hidden posting feeling come out, scream at the world "here I am!!". Watch out internet, babycakes.
Okay no
What I"m really trying to get at is drunk dialing and drunk texting. The two worst things you can do. I don't get it. I've never ever been one of these people. And trust me, it gets to the point where I feel left out. I have in the past made a conscious effort to call a friend when I'm drunk (because the world tells me this is funny and awesome) and every time I have failed. Every single time. In fact, there have only been two times in the memory of my drinking history that I have successfully drunk dialed and both times where to the same person, my grandma.
As much as I would like to be kidding right now, I'm not. Luckily (or maybe not) I've gotten the answering machine when I called (yes, answering machines still exist, my grandparents have one to prove this) and I was happy enough to leave a message.
I never got a reply on these messages. My hopes were that they receive them, thought it was nice I called and thought nothing else of it, but really who am I kidding? C'mon Diamond.
Drunk dialing should never be attempted. Sure it's a good story the next day. Sure it has the possibility of reminding an old friend you still think about them. Sure there might be a small opportunity to get laid (I have yet to hear of a successful story). But bottom line: chances are you have regrets.

Introducing: The "List"
This is a List I made last August before I knew I was going back to school. All the great books I want to read and all the movie's I haven't got around to watching. Of course once I went back to school in September my list got delayed. Well now school is almost finished so the list is BACK. Here's my amazing list and as you can see I checked a few items off. (click on the list to see it BIGGER)
Since I am leaving Toronto in September for exchange to Edinburgh, Scotland for 9 months (more on this to come) I have a deadline. Can I finish the list in four and a half months?
