Just look at all these trashy people getting on the plane to Korea! Took a night flight and touched down early in the morning around 5AM, which was too early to even function.

First stop: Hongdae

First day – We took the express train (TRX) directly to Seoul!!! Then headed to our Airbnb located at Hyochang park, left our luggages there and went to this nearby shop, for some really spicy beef stew 🙂 It was a bright and sunny Monday morning & the place was pretty empty.

Then we headed to Itaewon, n visited some cafes such as KakaoTalk and Line before it rains 🙂

Second stop: Gyeongbok palace

Second day – We first headed to get ourselves some Ginseng chicken, located at Tosokchon Samgyetang before heading to the palace!

Directions: Gyeongbok Palace station, exit 2 – walk straight – once see GS 25 (convenience store) at left hand side turn left – will see traditional house at the back of GS25 – there is usually long queue. Now the real deal: Gyeongbok palace

We rented our hanbok at some random shop near the ginseng chicken place! 4hours for 15,000won (~SGD$18)

There was no entry fee for those who wore the costume because it was there Chuseok festival!!! (Entry fee: 3,000won, ~SGD$3)

After the palace photo shoot, we headed to Myeoungdong to end our night!

At Myeoungdong, is where you will be able to see lots of cosmetic brands and buildings that satifised all cosmetic lovers!!

Obviously, we have to visit the stylenanda cafe!

Third stop: Everland

Third day – We took this direct bus from Gangnam station, if I’m not wrong. Bus Fare: 2,500 Won

We then settled for some KBBQ at Gangnam!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn hungry as I’m writing this

Also, went to the popular KAKAOTALK store.

Fourth stop: one in a million cafe

Fourth day – it was pretty chill, so we just went to some cafes and went grocery shopping . And headed to the club later at night!!

Location for one in a million:

684-62 Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, South Korea

Opening hours: 12pm – 11pm (Monday – Saturday), 12pm – 930pm (Sunday)

Station: Hangangjin Station Exit 3, Line 6
Edit random aesthetics photos of this adidas store:

Must try – Shake Shack

Fifth – club octagon n club MU:IN

Octagon:

Popular among tourists, I guess? Located at Gangnam, Is like Singapore’s zouk, plays more of EDM music. Entrance fee are priced at 30,000won (~$36SGD)

Club MU:IN

Located at Gangnam too. Is like Singapore’s club cherry!!!! That plays more of hip hop n r&b kind of music, pretty chill n small place. Entrance free are priced at 10,000won (~$12)

ok bye, delayed pretty long but it is finally up!!

Also, shoutout to my seouljubombbabies for making this trip happened, could not have happened without y’all!! Love u guys n missing the weather 😦

Always

that yellow paint;

Everything was a magical as I remembered it to be.

It had been an amazing journey together as u showed me nothing but love despite the ups and downs we have been through.

Things that we used to do, places where we used to visit, that scent and that familiarity, it just brings back good old memories and always will be.

I’m sorry that things haven’t worked out the way we (I) planned but I still hope for the best in the near future for you, me and us.
Will be away for a short well, till next.

Green carnival

To the place where I found and form 7 years of friendship, that is going to last me for a lifetime.

There are more who came back to school, but I didn’t have enough time to take with them!!

Till next, d

Before the new beginning

Hello, so Y2S2 have officially ended and I’ll be starting my internship real soon (like in 3weeks time?) When I first saw the class list, I thought this class is going to be full of drama HAHAHA but to my (many) surprise, it isn’t. Even though our class isn’t really bonded but I had fun with them as they are really funny and enjoyable people to hang with, yeah including bad vibes. 13 weeks just flew past like this and there are some I won’t be seeing till graduation day 😦 Hope everyone is doing their best and see y’all soon!!

With love, d

Penang

It was a 3 days 2 night trip to Penang, where I have to skip school which was pretty cool because I never once skipped school!!

Peace out, x

Perth bound

Currently back from my Student Overseas Trip (SOT) to Perth, a good 5 days 4 nights spent.

Truly enjoyed myself with the company I have through out the whole trip and the weather was chilly amazing (5-16degree), even thou it was slight too rush and packed with schedules.

Anyway, I LOVE the farm stay!!! It was a whole new experience that I have never gotten before, such as the beautiful night sky filled with tons of stars, animal farm, fruits picking and the electric blankets :”) I was expecting a much more ulu Airbnb stay instead of the stay I had at the glory farm. TOTALLY WORTH EVERY CENT GOING TO THE FARM!!!!

While writing this I miss Perth, chasing the ducklings and the weather 😦

We are here to know/learn about the rescued animals and clearing up their sleeping place, which is picking up twigs!!

Mid-point

Year 2 sem 1, has officially ended and its soon exam (not very prepared for this). I don’t get why we have a month to study for Mid-semester exam but only a week to study end-semester exam???

Anyway, feeling kind of sad that this semester has ended as it was really a great time spent with my classmates and the bond we built throughout the past 13weeks. It was amazing, especially the EDM making, “take one for the team” for 13 weeks etc.

Great joy, much laughter

Much love, many misses

Ps: y’all need to stop hoeing…
