Casinos
Thursday, January 15, 2009
Yesterday, my Korean friend Eunmee Oh left the Philippines for good. She’s going back to Busan, South Korea. The pretty and timid girl don’t know what lies ahead of her when she go home…the only thing that she need is to let her pale feet touch her mother ground. Hyejin tried talking to her and at least convinced her to finish her 2nd year study in Ateneo (ADDU). I asked her what’s bothering her here but she seems at loss of words when I stared at her teary eyes. We talked about some stuff on her last night at Hyejin’s room while dabbling on a poster for a Literature report and even laughed about some silly jokes to make the place less dreary.
Then, we came up with our long lost casino topic. She told me she always had this aching for casinos in Busan, and told us that back in middle school, she and her friends play on slot machines like those in casinos before going home.
Her father goes to casinos most of the time in Seoul, because there’s only one casino in Busan which is open for 24 hours. Playing in those casinos’s a form of stress management for her father and for her as well. She’ll surely have her hands full on those fancy slot machines once she enters those casino territories of Korea.

I miss her. Hyejin misses her a lot. She lost her cellphone in Manila before boarding the plane and her baggage exceeded to 14kilograms. phew! That’s 14K wahaha!
Moi moi!!!
See you in Helsinki!
