Day 259, 260 - First Snow This Winter

Yesterdaaaay....
What did I do? I can't really remember exactly
I just know supposedly we had this party in 라선생님's house but I didn't go.
I guess I practically just stayed behind and do some homework.
At night after 언니 came back from the party though, we watched Friends with some ice cream... just had some laid back time...
and around 1.30 I guess... it started snowing...
BEAUTIFUL!!!!



I love snow no matter how often I've played with it
Snow is magical ^^

It was big snow, yet so short
So we could not play with it this morning as we planned

Today, we had normal and slow day....
and at night, we got sooo hungry after dinner (this is a correct sentence... we did get hungry after eating) so 언니 decided to make this yogurt +apple+ waffle+ cookies
It's really good though the look is not really appealing



You can have whatever imagination of whatever they are doing in my room during our crazy time ㅋㅋㅋ

Day 257, 258 - Movie Days

Yesterday, after class, of course we went to Daejeon...
The usual troops: 승연, 언니, 시타
It was very cold that day, but these little fellas did magic...
You shake them, and they keep you warm

and what too bad was, I already vowed not to shop... but what happened?
My boot was falling apart

So I had to buy new ones... I hope this one lasts longer




At night, we watched Toy Story 3

Today I woke up really really late since I stayed up until late, talking to 언니 yesterday night
But then I had time to curl my hair that I haven't done for sooo long

Then 언니 and I went to 향미원 to make our 찜질방 and watched I Am Sam...

Dinner...
Laundry...

Time for Friends in 향미원 again..

Went back to the room, and watched Taken @Sitta's

To quote 언니: We cried, we laughed, and we screamed

Day 255, 256 - War War... Go Away

It's been bad between North and South lately.
But yesterday, our teacher specifically told us not to worry about it too much.
Anyway... please war... goo awaaaaay !!!

시타 and I went to Nonsan yesterday.
We ate good food, we shopped and we went back with the craziest bus ride ever!
The 40 min away destination was reached within 30 minutes.
I held unto the rails. yet I almost fall for 3 times.
The 2nd was onto the lap of a high school boy...
crazzzyyyy
Even on the walk back to school, we were surprised for seeing a racoon...
See how weird that day was???

Today though... everything seems slow... we have no big thing planned and really just staying around.
언니 and I had some hot chocolate drink with chocolate snacks at night.
And that's the most activity I've done today other than standing around in the corridor for almost 15 minutes and some night sightseeing ^^
I finally cut my bang... if that even a big deal
And the weather is getting colder... hmmmm....

Day 254 - 양미경

양미경...
My Korean name... ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
So since everyone here has Korean name diverted from their Chinese character, during my Korean partnership today, I had 승연 to read my Chinese name in Korean... and there I got my name... 양미경 (Yang Mi Kyeong)
according to him it's quite a common Korean name... so I am happy... ㅋㅋㅋ
Why? because 신시아 is not a Korean name. It's only a Koreanized version of my English name.

Afterwards I went to the gym with 언니, got a quick shower and went down for an awful dinner.
Since we are soooo hungry after dinner, we went to 옹기촌... just us 2... and met the kind 아저씨 and cute 할머니... and had a marvelous dinner of 삼겹살

Afterwards, I had some quite surprising drama... but other than that, it's just a usual Geumgang life for 양미경 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Day 252, 253 - Blank...

I am blank... I cannot remember what I did yesterday the whole afternoon.
I just remember meeting the girls around lunch time, then we had the awful lunch and went to my room for some hanging around until 언니 had to go to 대전.

I guess it was yesterday that I went down to 향미원to study with 승연 but I cant be really sure... or probably I did it 2 days in a row? urgh! my poor memory is totally failing me!

But I remembered 언니came back from 대전 and we helped her a bit on the resume...
then we went down for some ice cream though we couldnt find the big bucket... so we ended up with the personal ice creams...
less fun, but still ice cream.
Where we ate it? 향미원's little hidden room of course. It's not really hidden. Just none is there other than us.
So it's once again 오빠, 언니, 승연, 시타 and I. This time with nothing to watch. So just ice cream and some fooling around

Today our little secret chamber is closed with 출입금지 written there... saaaaad....
anyway since the guys are either busy or away, only us girls hang around in each other rooms, and did some 산책..
At night, once again we went to 향미원 to study... in the crowd... huhuhuh bring my lil chamber baaaack ㅠ_ㅠ

Anyway, here's some baby's clothes that are tooo cute not to buy...
the lil cute vest is for baby Alicia


And some other Seoul's pics credit to 시타씨





















캔터키 하우스
Crazy moody nails
Pizza party



And btw here's my nails today... using the nail polishes that K left for me ^^

Day 250, 251 - Well... all well... at least to me ^^

Yesterday, we had class as always but didn't go to Daejeon like always... I had to work on some stuff and finished quite late afternoon...
I hung out with Sitta and 승연 for a while... but afterwards Sitta suddenly didn't feel like it, so I went to 노래방 with 승연 and skipped dinner in the end...
I listened more than I sang yesterday... I didnt have much enough energy to sing like usual... but I did sing 아파, the song I've been wanting to sing for sooo long...

afterwards, we just talked in 향미원... I actually put on some nail polish on 승연's nails for fun =p
and afterwards we went to Kentucky House with 언니, 승연 and Sitta where I let myself drank only a lil bit more than I usually did... I actually wanted to have more, but I still needed to take the car back to school and I know alcohol and Korean transportation is not a good combination in my case... but I just felt like it... 자유럽게 하고싶다... dunno if it bothered others... even if I did, I am quite careless =p 내 마음에 들어 할거야 ^^

We went back around 2AM... the calmest time of the day (JYP, do thank me for promoting ur group =p) that 승연 had to call the 아저씨to let us into the dorm since the door is locked by 12.

Today though, I had to wake up quite early again because we had class.
We watched the first 15 minutes part of a movie called 내사랑 and talked about the script for the rest of the class... but in the end, the teacher ordered some chickens and pizza... I only had the pizza since I am quite bored with chickens already...

I then did my laundry, and started doing some homework... far from done, but at least some improvements from my nothingness.

After dinner, 언니, 시타, 오빠, 승연 and I went to 향미원 again, this time in this little room to watched a movie called 'The Switch' if I am not mistaken.
We laid down in the somewhat dark room, on the heated floor with pillows under us and laptop in front of us. It was very very very comfortable.
I slept and woke up for the last half an hour of the movie only.
We continued talking and having leisure for some more time. I enjoyed such time... I can't guarantee about the others since I dont read minds and I dont wanna try. 네 마음에 들어 생각해라^^ I love this expression lately

Day 242 - 249 - Seoul with Maria (and the lil one =p)

My honey is here in Korea....
I was soooo excited...
so on 101111, Ppeppero Day, I took off quite early from school. Lucky 승연 accompanied me on the bus to Nonsan, until I actually got on the bus to Seoul because I was quite out that morning.
The bus ride was comfy but forgettable since I just slept the whole way... but I took this to remember the 빼빼로데이


Mar called me around 10 minutes before I arrived to tell that they moved to Grand Ambassador Hotel instead. It wasn't hard to find and on the way, we found one of the best 계란빵, and I also got them some 빼빼로 to celebrate the day.
Once I saw her, I was sooo ecstatic. We talked and gossip and everything... I can even tell her my Korean drama with body gestures which made everything more exciting =p
On this first day, both Mar and Mba Suci are free... so we can go wherever we wanted to.

Soooo first destination is 경복궁. We didn't get inside and instead continued to 명동...




We had a very very nice 삼겹살 dinner



and I just wanna show this fine men from SPAO =p


The next day: 101112
Mba Suci had to work. So I had time to spend just with Mar... we woke up a lil late and found some kimbab to eat around the hotel. it was quite complicated to find, but we managed... I love that she loves kimbab and Cheese ramyun because I do ^^...
and this cheese ramyun is very very good...

Afternoon, we moved to Shilla Hotel...
AFter Mba Suci had to go back to a meeting, we had time to explore Seoul more...
so 이대 is next... one of my fave spots it is...
some pictures time before it's time to shop







The 한간공원@여의나루 my other fave spot









But we got some duty call there
Soooo we had to go back...
we met the doctors and Sitta also made her way to see us...
with the group, we went to 남대문. I actually aimed to buy some baby's stuff... but some situation came up and we were tooo late for that...
anyway we got them to shop for souvenirs. Sitta and I worked hard to translate for everyone... and in the end, the ahjumma gave us some lil wallet as presents... I might not use it... but it's just cute ^^

101113
Mar had to start working... so Sitta and I were left...
since it's us, we decided to go to 명동 for sure....
Btw here's Shilla's hotel stairway
My new TMoney which I can have now since I already have cellphone

The winter jacket that is soooo warm, with fur and with great colors... too bad I couldn't buy it ㅠ__ㅠ

and as I mentioned once that Christmas weakened my will, it happen again... I went to Starbucks and went crazy again... this time for tumbler...








Me getting bored of waiting

Mar getting bored of waiting

Evening, we took the doctors back to 명동 to have some dinner at quite a high class restaurant


then we continued to Doota @동대문 where they literally shopped till dropped

By the way, this day, we received bad news from Onnie about Prof Dee's accident... I was sooo worried and scared for his safety... I cant imagine if I was in school... would I go with them? If so, Im afraid I would be haunted... but not being with them making me feel sooo useless... anyway I just pray that the guy gets better soon...

101114
we are being naughty today =p
So we once again 명동... don't even try to ask why... we had some magnetic force with this place =p
We shopped for a short while and went back to get the doctors since they finished earlier this day
So I took them to Hangang for some pictures... they seemed to have so much fun here as we did


The huge gloves kept me warm and ruined the pic =p




We continued to 경복궁 and 세정로
For dinner, we had some 삼계탕


My nerdy look @ night

101115
동대문... to look for 교촌 치킨 which happened to be located in totally different area... so we walked for like an hour to 정로.... it better be good, really...
and it was quite good for me... at least I ate well ^^
and I enjoyed the atmosphere of this area... so they are totally forgiven
Some poop monuments ㅋㅋㅋ




A Christmasy Starbucks once again... they need to be sued... they make me weak =p

Teddy Bear Cafe nearby



Kyochon







Then we went to 안국 to get Onnie's shoes... really cute streets





We ended up@명동 again... nothing really special though

This is my dinner: Snickers dark thought the chocolate tastes too sweet for a dark one... anyway it's Snickers... my love ^^


101116
Mar and Mba Suci finished early today... so Sitta and I also didn't go anywhere in the morning... just stayed in the hotel, slept alot until it was time for us to go...

We went to 동대문 for a last time shopping... and of course 명동 again...
Dinner @유가네

101117
We actually got up early in the morning to hunt for our fave cheese ramyun near Ambassador hotel...

and finally... time to say goodbye ㅠ__ㅠ





Minutes after they left, 승연arrived... we went to 고속버스 터미날 to put our bags and got some lunch for the starving guy...
Sitta and I had ice cream... mine is the Halloween special... I loooove it... it's mint, dark choco with some poprock
will they have Christmas special??? ㅋㅋㅋ

We bought the bus ticket for 4.30 but had something to do...
so around 3.30, we were still soooo far from the terminal...
what happened was we needed to rush for everything...
but some 'miracle' happens... well I know I have to thank my God and I do ^^
we were always in time for the train which was ready to leave and we were even in time for the express train which skipped like 6 stops... it helped alot....
we only had like 5 minutes before the bus to Nonsan depart...
if we didn't got on the express train, we would have missed our bus

We were sooo tired and slept for the whole way to Nonsan...
we arrived around 6.30 while the bus to school was supposed to come @7.30
So we went to a chicken house named Cob...
it's cozy but taking too long to serve the food
We talked about 징크스, which was a random word I found on my dictionary... it meant jinx... and dunno how I've been saying what if we missed the bus, then we had to wait for the last bus which would come @9

Then we went out to wait for the bus, to find that I really had 징크스-ed it... we missed the buuuus... so we had to wait for the last bus...
we waited in Baskin Robbin where I had my 2nd cup of ice cream within the same day...
we then decided to hold a lil late bday party for Oppa since it was last Sunday and we weren't there to celebrate for him...

We got on the latest bus, and prepared the party...
My 3rd Baskin Robbin feast... and we also gave him the present we bought in Seoul






101118
As expected, I was soooo tired today in class.... hard to keep my eyes opened, but I managed afterall...
after class, with Sitta, Onnie and 승연 we watched Orphan...
goooosh it was a very tiring movie... I felt unhealthy afterwards... there were to many heartbeat skipping moments... though Onnie's reactions during the movie kept my fear stable and slightly more hidden from the others =p
We then did major laundry and cleaning...
after dinner, we had some tea time with peanuts, raisins, and dark choco all sent from Onnie's parents... ^^

Tiring weeek... but I had sooo much fun...
Can I hold the time please???
