Korea Travelogue - Part 1

So.. We booked our tickets and 6 months later, we were on our way to Korea!
We waited so long for this day to come! But it left too quickly! ):
Let's hit the replay button! 

Anyway, this is the first trip with my #lupsupkidz and we had a total of 288 hours in Korea!! 

Departure day - 23 May 2014 

Took half day leave because I wasn't sure if I can make it if I end at 5 hahhaha I'm kiasu like that! So I went home to.. TAKE A NAP! 

Met the girls at the airport at ard 1930hrs to check in before we part again to have dinner with our parents! 

At departure!  

While strolling to the gate! 

My mates on the plane! 

All going to sleep and nua then the hair so nice -.-

Joyce, Ah Smelly, and Mel

First glimpse of light!!! :D 

Wake up first thing in the morning.. force ppl to take picture hahahahah! 

 Day 1 - 24 May 2014 - Arrived at Incheon Airport! 

On the train to Seoul Station! 

On the train to MyeongDong!

At our first lunch place! 

Lunch was pork cutlet kimbab x cold noodle x cheese ramen x tteokbokki

T MONEYYY

And then we checked in while Carmen and Fer went to buy EXO concert merchandise! 

Initial plan was to check in and then go out again to explore a little of Myeong Dong. But tiredness got the better of us so.. we decided to nua a little in the guesthouse. Ohh our home for the 11 nights was at Namsan Guesthouse 4! All the reviews was sooooo good but when we reached.... /: Idk, maybe their review was for the other guesthouse 2/3. We even wanted to cancel, get a refund and move to other guesthouse! Hahaha but all was fully booked sooooo, we just made do with this! There was a private bathroom, BUT IT WASN'T ATTACHED TO THE ROOM. It was just... across the "living room". What.....

Lucky the 2nd room we moved into was better but.. onto the last 2 nights, the air con started leaking. WTS...

Pictures looks ok right.... 

We nua alllll the way until Carmen and Fer came back then we head out for dinner! We decided to just roam ard Myeong Dong because we were all tired from the flight. Only person who slept very well on the plane was Carmen. Fer and I tossed and turned like mad! Hhahaha! 

Streets of Myeong Dong! 

Spicy steamed chicken with seafood! Which was damn good!!

Then we split up to roam ard a little! So we crossed over to Young Plaza! & we had Gong Cha! Like as if SG don't have right~ 

While walking home, we stopped by for this!! SOOOOO GOOD AS WELL! 

Ended day 1 early as all of us was super tired!

Day 2 - 25 May 2014

To Yeongdeungpo for underground shopping because weather forecast say it's gonna rain! 

No idea what to have for breakfast so we just bought this to share before we look for real food! 

Morning faces hahahahaha~  

Best is to let Fer do it! 

Brunch was at a foodcourt!!

Bibimbap!

Jajangmyun & Tang Su Yuk! 

They call this mee hoon kueh hahahaha. 

EVEN FOODCOURT FOOD WAS DAMN GOOD! Hahahah everything in Korea is good! IDW TO COME HOME ):

After lunch, we walked ard Times Square! Then we chanced upon this cafe! 

Mix and Bake!  

Strawberry Tart x Tiramisu Tart x Mango Bingsoo x Green Tea Latte x Chocolate x Early Grey Tea x Coffee

Joyce and I wanted 3 more slices of cakes but Fer, our mum in Korea says no ): Hahahahah! & lucky she said no because we were kinda full after these!

Headed on to Dong Dae Mun to look for shoes!! Because I didn't bring a pair to wear with my dress heheheh!

While waiting for train, TAKE PICTURES!

Ah Mel! :D

Then they kidnapped my camera to take more pictures!

Infamous awkward smile which everyone is so good at it now!

Omg we meet in Seoul. Not that close but let's take a picture! HAHAHA.

We alighted at the wrong station and once we stepped out of the train, LOOK WHAT GREETED US! :D

 But too bad the concert's longgg over ):

........

Awkward smile all day all night

Dong Dae Mun shoe street

The long long stream which is linked from... City Hall?

#lupsupkidz on the streets of Dong Dae Mun

Walked around and I finally bought a pair of shoe!! Hahaha! Then we decided to head back home to drop off our things and to let Carmen change out of her contacts before heading out for BBQ dinner, just below our guesthouse!

Our loots from underground shopping!!

 BBQ DINNER!!!

Went to walk around at Myeong Dong again after dinner because it was too early to head back to sleep but too late to travel to somewhere further because we have to go back to pack for Busan! Bought lip mask and immediately went back to apply it! Hahahaha!

Carmen with the lip mask already hahahahah.

LIP MASK GROUPFIE! Hahahaha!!

YOUNG LUPSUP!!

Think we took this when Joyce and I were accompanying Fer to search for places to go in Busan and also how to get to our guesthouse! Heheheh! Also... 3 of us was always the last to sleep! Hahaha like every single night!! HAHAHAH!

#lupsupkidz might not be the most glam name for a group of 5 girls but really... I'm sooo glad to have them in my life. Reason why we're called lupsupkidz, quite self explanatory right? Hahaha cause we're LUPSUP!

Errrrrr, this sums up the first 2 days of my 12 days in Korea!! Will be back with other parts yo!!! :D 

WEEKLY UPDATES!

Updating this space has become a weekly thing! Which is good I suppose, at least I get to update my life and next time when I read back, I know what are the crazy things I've done. Ok crazy. Not exactly crazy things my life actually quite boring. But anyway, here goes!! 

Work was... the same. Nothing muchhhh. Just regret a little abt not going to FHA after hearing somethings from KC! Hahahahaha. 

Let's see...! 

Went to the hairdress last week with no intentions to cut my hair but as usual, I got tempted and... I SNIPPED OFF A LOT OF MY HAIR. Hahahaha but no regrets, loving the new length a lot! :D We had to wait quite a while on that day because my hairdresser was pretty busy. So I went to walk ard, drop by Courts and got tempted at cameras again, because I HAVE BEEN REGRETTING SINCE THE DAY I SOLD MY G12! ): I miss the flip screen a lot. But because I already have the S100, I don't wanna waste too much getting a new one, I went back to the salon and started for someone who wants to sell their Samsung EX2F. FINALLY, I FOUND A SELLER. The price was wayyyy too good. Of course, it comes with a price to pay. The camera is a little scratched at the bottom where we screw in the tripod but no biggie to me. DEAL! I met him the very next day and.... MEET MY NEW TOY! 

K, another better shot which I grabbed off the internet! 

I'm soooo happy plus I got it at like more than 50% lesser than the original price! :D Haven't really used it yet. Hahaha don't ask me why but I'm definitely gonna bring it to Korea with me! ^^ 

Friday was another TGIF as usual with my happy pills! They wanted to donate blood but.... we just postponed it. & since we were already at Dhoby Ghaut, we just settled for dinner at Kith Cafe! Ok, actually I went to see their menu beforehand and saw that they had Tiramisu! Heeheheh I was craving for it soooo badly for weeks already! PICTURES!! 

Truffle Fries. Still prefer the one at Stranger's Reunion! 

Mushroom and Ham pizza! 

Usual Carbonara

TIRAMISU!!! 

Of course, wasn't as good as what I'd wanted because I feel that my taste bud already spoilt by boss. Always bringing us for authentic Italian food which I'm super super thankful for. Haahahaha the tiramisu that I had was really to die for. Hahahahaha! But then, what is there to complain right. GOT TIRAMISU GOOD ENOUGH ALREADY! HAHAHAHA! 

OH YES!!!!! On Sunday, I FINALLY HIT THE 2048 TILE!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA! 

Anyway, I think my eyesight is failing me? Omg /: I used to really wanna wear glasses when I was younger but now, I REALLY DON'T! I mean... if attend class where I have to look from very far I'm ok but please, not for daily needs. Recently, after looking at screens for awhile, my eyes gets soooo blur ): Sighxz. 

Speaking of which, IDK HOW MUCH TO CHANGE TO BRING TO KOREA! Thinking of 2k. Then I'd probably pay for my Mini Mac with my debit card? Idk manxzxzxzxzxz. Hopefully that's enough. & come to think of it, I can actually mange to cough out 2k to go Korea but I didn't bear to come up with the 2k for my bag. Hahahahah waixz.

Okkkkk, gonna watch some rm and go to bed early! Got to go baibai tmr!
