Marko, Alisa, Justin, Donna and Melody went out for Korean bbq. Melody: "It was hilarious because none of us could speak Chinese despite the fact Donna, Alisa, and I look like we should."

"So the way it works is there is a grill in the middle of the table and the waitress cooks the food for you, but we
didn't think the food was cooked enough so we started putting back on the grill. she grilled this onion for me 3 times
before she noticed."

Melody: "On july 6th the sky was inordinately blue and we realized for the first time there were mountains..."
