7th Day - Nonsan and New Roomate

Probably you'll get tired hearing the word Nonsan... it's because that's the closest entertainment source right now...

We went in the afternoon, and I had the green pancake like the one I had the last time... I really like it...

We once again visited the 'all 1000' shop even though in practice they have stuff priced more than 1000...
I noticed this apron... sooo Korean right?? I wanted to get my mom and sis, but really, who cooks with apron nowadays?
From this store, I bought the bowl (if one day I wanna cook noodles), hooks for my clothes and towel, and the notebook (which turns out to be squared books... now I really have to take Chinese...)
I got 2 more colors from Faceshop... someone, close the store already so I won't keep on wasting money.
I got my pictures done... it's pretty weird, really... the guy took like 5 pics, but he didn't let me choose... so what he will print out basically will base on his personal taste... and he kept on telling me to lift my chin up... I look kinda arrogant now
We got lunch @Mister Pizza...


This is what we ordered... it's like shrimp covered by noodle-like potato, with lemon dipping
The pizza is with crab on top... nice...
The cute thing is, they have kkokkoma (sweet potato) inside... instead of cheese... but it tastes really good.

The last destination was the market. I bought like 4 random types of instant noodles and 1 biscuit... oooh.... and toilet paper
Since they sell everything in big party, K and I split the toilet paper... each of us still get a dozen... hmmm.... look at the design... pretty sweet but pretty useless on toilet paper
Oh, I also have bought the very famous banana milk all Korean seems to be drinking
If you happen to notice, the route was totally similar to my previous trip there... entertainment much?
When we were walking back home, it was soooo cold... aaaaah... I didn't even feel like talking as walking itself took too much will and energy

So, when I arrived home, I was informed that the new roommate had arrived and was so excited to meet me... which got me excited as well.
I went inside the room, and the other bed was already covered in Hello Kity bedsheet... seems she's fond with pink as well, eh?
Anyway, I finally met this sweet Ahn Ji Hyun... she went in with her 2 other friends... really... they are very cute and nice and sweet... Ji Hyun doesn't really speak English, but I also don't speak Korean... so probably my dictionary will be much used around the room... which is good... supposedly I'll learn faster that way...
but I got to throw some simple Korean phrases to her which she acknowledged the meaning... aaah... that's a relief, isn't it?

She's not going to stay the night tonight since she's meeting friends in Daejeon... that means I get to have webcam conversation on MSN and do weird stuff again... YAAAAY!!!!
SHe'll freak if she sees what I've been doing with webcam on.

I've tried pasting the hooks... looks good, eh? I did them myself ^^


Here's my Korean dining set (though the bowl is a lil Japanese??)

One more thing I forgot mentioning and I think is fascinating enough to be mentioned here is the temperature check... presumably it's due to H1N1 virus (btw I really wish a certain salted fish to recover soon from this), everyone here gets their temperature checked everynight... it's quite uncomfortable since the thermometer travels from one ear to another without being cleaned. Anyway... what's very fascinating is that you get to see everyone in their ready-for-bed state... that translates to facial cream, hair rolls and everything else you usually apply at night so you'll look good the next day...
They usually knock from one door to another around 11:30... blame my late nights on that!
