La laaa. Went to LA this weekend for Phil and Jo's chinese banquet reception thing. Man, LA is fun.... but traffic there seriously kills any desire I might have to live there. It's just atrocious. Anyways, on Friday night we went to Manna for all you can eat kalbi. It was so tasty delicious. But during the meal, we kept seeing these firemen walking around. We figured it was a surprise fire inspection. Well, after a while more and more firemen were walking around, people stopped coming in, and then they started kicking people out. The place had that many fire code violations. I guess all these violations would be bad in the case of a fire... but part of me thinks the food is worth it. Yum.

Saturday night was the chinese banquet. It was a nine course meal, and I ate a lot. My sister and I also finished off a bottle of BonnyDoone riesling between the two of us. Needless to say, Minsoo had two sisters in very good moods last night. It was good seeing Hyun and Brian, and Jo's family, and meeting so many of Jo's family friends.

Minsoo and Jo live in west LA, where they have their own grown up apartment. They have this cute, cozy little life together. I'm excited to see what the future holds for them. Congrats Phil and Jo! Wedding stuff is over, real married life has officially begun!

And now for me, fun times are coming to a close. Orientation starts Wednesday. RIP Summer of Weddings and Fun. It was great knowing ya.
