Just picked up a Canon 1000D from the Yongsan electrics market. Dollar to Won rate is sick.

 

how much?

 

$450 with a standard 18-55 lens. I have no idea how to work this thing btw. lamo lots to learn.

 

^cool deal! well, i'd start out by taking pictures of small items under different types of lights/lighting. i use a wireless flash setup as my new standard: http://www.strobist.blogspot.com/ <~~~~learn from this

saturday was pretty chill... the movie was too complicated and of course the most badass dude had to... well, you guys know. best quote:

"You all don't understand. I'm not trapped in here with you... you're all trapped in here with me!!"

 

Yes Epic quote.

 

What do you think of the Challenger parked outside the PX?

I'm thinking about buying it.

 

I dont really know too much about the car. It does look really good. But I do know that you will be the first one on post to be driving it.

 

as long as it has a lot of seats... that way, you can drive us around. hah!

 

Thanks Cliff and Andrew for coming out. but yeah the movie was long but it wasn't boring thats for sure.

Lee- do you know any Silver Z's with rims, exhaust, and the small rear side windows? They look like the ones that are usually on Mustangs...(Gone in 60 Seconds GT500). Sorry for the vague details but I was walking to the store and I just heard vrooom vroooom vroooom and he just kept hitting the gas on and off down the whole street. Maybe he just got his exhaust and was enjoying it? He wasn't speeding or anything either. it came from the 서빙고 underpass down 이촌동 towards yongsan.

 

Ahhh man sometimes I just hate regulations.

Hey I have some questions for the military members. Its late right now and I cant go to someone to find the answer.

Anway

There was an investigation going on that was carried out by my unit on my best friend here. Since I was her best friend I was their number one person to interview.

After everyone was interviewed they made their decision and she just got read her second reading for a company grade Art 15. My question is, she was able to read everyones interview, and pretty much mine was the one who probably put the creamy icing on the cake. Is that allowed? Is the unit allowed to have her look at all the investigation paperwork and interview papers? I think this is total ****ing ********. Now she wont ****ing speak to me. Absolutely bs ****

 

Hahah!! I know the owner of that Z.. I met him at one of our club Z meets. I believe you saw this Z..

 

Cliff: WTF? i've never heard of anything like that... i don't think anyone besides the legal people have access to interview files. maybe she works in admin and got hooked up? that's the only logical explanation that i can think of... but that is messed up. that's what you get for being a snitch... i keed!

Jay: wow, where is that shop at? i've been meaning to hit up a tuner shop and maybe pick up a new set of wheels while the WON rate is up. anything new going on with you?

All: i'm thinking about a dinner outing on the 21st... it's my brithday weekend and it is also Cliff's last weekend on the ROK. i'm thinking about something small like TGIFridays at Gangnam or something similar. Is it possible to have some car guys show up as well? (Jay?) maybe even turn it into a photoshoot-all nighter kinda thing too... that would be the ultimate weekend right there. it's all still open for suggestions and we don't have to do FRIDAYS or Gangnam... give me some input!

Plan A
1. Meet up at TGIFRIDAYS (Food, etc.)
2. Goto Hyatt parking lot and take photos w/ cars + Group Photos (Hopefully we ride in the cars ^^)
3. Night is still young... anything else goes

Plan B
1. ?
2. ?
3. ...

 

As far as that girl reading all the statements. Legally, she has a right to see all evidence used against her. How else could she establish a defense during her trial? Imagine that was you standing tall and getting blind sided with evidence during your trial. That would break the constitutional right of having a fair trial pimpin....

 

hmmm... you have a point there. i guess i'm just use to getting screwed over =P

guess the Navy is a little different.

actually, i remember a case when someone said something that offended someone else... then they called in all the witnesses and asked them questions of the event. i was actually a witness and they called me in and told me that whatever i said will be kept confidential. also that the person accused would not hear my testimony... did they tell you that cliff? but this was all under a navy command and i have documented a lot of NJPs in my last command (it was my collateral duty). what happened to the documents? i don't know... i just gave them to the legal officer and they took care of the rest. but i know that my friends accused never was able to hear/read statements from witnesses.

now i understand, "what if that was you up there"... all the cases that i've been to: stuff really went down. so if i'm up there, then i probably deserved it. (or i didn't keep my nose clean enough) however, i do not agree with conclusions some COs come up with -_-

oh and NJP isn't a real trial. it's when you appeal and go against the COs decision... that's when the real game begins. Judge and all. am i right? oh and mpact, i'm not saying that you're wrong or anything... i'm actually curious myself. this is just what i've experienced... =)

 

Cliff: either way, sorry about you and your friend not talking... but your argument isn't worth anything without photos of the girl.

you know how we roll...

 

I posted that in the Heat of the moment. I was furious that she started doing that. I called up legal and asked them and they told me exactly what mpact said. I do understand that.

As for the 21st, I wont be able to make it, i have been given hints that my section is throwing a big party for me. I really cant miss it.

A requested here are some pics. She was soldier of the year in Korea, and pretty high speed. Oh well at least I had my fun while she was here

 

heh... well, the army surprises me yet again. oh well, i hope you at least did hit that. if not, just lie.... it's okay.

damn, so no go for the 21st eh? how about 20th or 22nd?

 

Hit it lots of times

20th or 22nd would be fine for me!

Oh yeah here is a photo that I took with the new camera. I love photography. Played around with it a little in PS3. HDR photo. I love the colors of the tank, I think it makes the whole photo.

 

Set the date and let me know. I'm going golfing on 20th, but I should be back by dinner time.. like 7... If you set the date, I'll try to setup a local meet. Let me know about the date ASAP. Also, that shop is the one that I go to for minor tuning and maintenance. Owner of the shop is one of the DKs(Drift Kings) in Korea that I told you about at Kraze burger. Name of the shop is "Super Drift". He used to drift with S15 Silvia, but he sold it and he just bought Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0 turbo which you see in the second pic.

 

Jay- f-ing awesome you were able to know which car it was that I saw...I think it was the mustang side vents that helped out, no? hahah either way, the exhaust sounded sweet! Also, you mentioned a S15...it wasn't a lime green type of color was it? I remember seeing one drive by while getting a late night snack @ the McD's by G-LUX.

Cliff- that really does blow about the whole situation you're in but hey, you're going back to the states where many a lovely women will be all over you. Buttt since you guys aren't talking...how bout a hook up! nah, jp imnot that much of a dick However, that tank shot looks sweet indeed and I'm still debating on what camera to get! its driving me nuttttts

As for the party weekend, as Jay said, post up date and time and I'll be there!
