Korea trip1
Sunday, December 20, 2009

Too lazy to blog the last week so gotta make up for it now....
Just came back from camp shagged but still I WILL post :D
Reached Korea early in the morning when the sun hasn't even report for work...
The moment I stepped out of the airport I totally felt the difference in climate of Korea and that of Singapore.
There is like smoke when u speak.
I dun like the plane ride at all... could not sleep well on the plane because the seat is just so hard and we cannot lie down comfortably cause the seat is rather straight... so I was like sleeping in an upright position.... what a torture.
The toilets there are all very clean. Better than Singapore's toilet totally. Super clean.
Breakfast was great, the udon we had was nice.
Observed that the houses are pretty and cute. How I wish Singapore as such houses too!
Went sauna and then we were shocked cause when we walked into the bathing area the ppl in there are naked and they just walk around in their birthday suits like no big deal.
We were kinda embarrassed and walked away. Sauna was relatively great. Felt refreshed :D
After sauna we went to the Dae JangJin palace.
The place looked freaked huge and majestic in the show but the palace is rather mini....LOL! It is amazing they manage to make it looks so grand when it is not.
They said the land at that place was cheap so they built it there for filming! Wow 0.0
It is quite pretty actually. We had Ginseng chicken with abalone for lunch. Superb! The abalone is fresh and easy to eat.
Not chewy chewy like those canned ones and the shell has nice colours :D
After the meal, went to learn how to make Kimchi :D The teacher praised me for making pretty kimchi :D muahaha
Kimchi school is enjoyable but the next event was not.
We needed to take plane to Jeju island. The domestic airport was not great at all... the waiting time was damn long and seriously it is no fun waiting...
Slept all the way during the 45mins plane ride. I bet the waiting time was longer than the plane ride itself.
BUT the dinner made up for it. Sashimi dinner. Wide spread. Fresh seafood, nice oysters and all that u can think of.

Enjoyed the food to the fullest and watched the ice skating competition as we ate.
The korean representative is rather pretty and good at ice skating. She is amazing.
Continued watching her 'performance' when I went back to the hotel. Thanks to the heater, I had i good night rest :D

What a hectic lifestyle I have had and will continue having these few days...
Rushing to Softball overnight, to BLS meeting, to Orchard, to Singtel shop, to BLS meeting, to preparing for trip to Korea, to the party.
Thankfully my hair ain't white yet :D
I'm like so busy that I have no idea what to blog about -.-
One more day to Korea!!! Hahaha I have my shopping list well planned and written down :D
I think our softball coach totally rocks.
He gave us like 50 bucks when he heard that we are going to stay overnight at Charis'
So nice of him totally and they planned to go welcome him back to Sing at the airport when he return from Taiwan...
Too bad I am still in Korea, I wanna go too!
The plan for the camp is going on rather well i suppose... We had done quite alot of things ( i think)
AND I totally think i may have phobia of little kids not more than four years old... toddlers = nightmare.
Because I simply cannot take their hyper-activeness.... drives me crazy and exhausted.
I very much rather lead a hectic lifestyle of rushing from one place to another than to look after a toddler. Seriously.
