Girl's Glam Night Out

In Korea there's a strange holiday called White Day. As you know Valentines Day falls on February 14. White Day is like Valentines Day but a month later. So it falls on March 14. In Asia, women give men chocolate on Valentines Day. They must wait one month until it is reciprocated. That's right! Men give the women candy on White Day!
Well, as a foreigner in Korea, White Day is a foreign concept. So I'm not sure that I like this particular Asian holiday. It's just another day to feel alone and single. Or so I thought. Thank God for Amy Berezowski-Kim! She is the founder of Flipside Fitness. It's the best gym in Cheonan. In the past, she has arranged for women from her gym to get together for a White Day celebration. She reserves a room at a five star restaurant and then we all go there to eat together. Of course being Amy it's not just showing up to eat. Amy had christened it Girls' Glam Night. So Glam means that we gotta dress up. So I ordered a dress. I did my makeup. I did my hair...50's style. But I still wore my converse shoes. I gotta remain true to myself somehow. The night was a blast. Part of the fun was that we had to bring a date. A female date. Well, my date was a blind date. She was a fun gal named Lee Ellen Johnson. She was so much fun! I was seated next to Eve and Jocelyn. We had a blast bonding, eating and becoming better friends. I am so grateful that Amy gave me the opportunity to be a part of this fun night. Thank God for Flipside Fitness!
