Since i am bored and have nth to do (ok! maybe there's still untouched tuts or most prob start on revision or sth!!!), but wadever, there's still tmr n time (NOT!!!) ... haha... so i shall talk bout my korea trip since i so do not keep a diary, n this post will be kept forever, so i can constantly marvel into it as n when i feel like it... haha... sooooo:


Day 1:
Basically, there are no activities planned for this day, because by the time we reached there it was bout 5plus... so after touch day, met the guide, headed straight for the hotel... flight time was approximately bout 5hours 40 mins, took SQ flight, lotsa shows available, caught the movie stardust and no reservation n high school musical which i have already watched like 10 thousand times n still nt bored of it... haha... food n service was alright... n e stewardess actually asked if i wanted a powerpuff girl toy... haha... dinner was at our own expense, headed to one of those restaurants which we often see on tv, those where u have to sit on the floor and eat... which brings a good start to the 8 days we will be there...

Day 2:
started the day off with breakfast at the restaurant... gathered our luggages b4 going for some sightseeing... first stop, the gyungbok palace, den drive pass the blue house(a place with tight security and i think its some government place), den we went to another place with some pretty christmas decorations, den later to this entertainment hall whereby you can take pictures with some of korean famous stars lifesize CARDBOARD... haha... den it was lunch time which we had a rather indulgence meal of korean ginseng chicken with noodle and rice, with an addition of some kind of alcohol which you cld either add to the soup or gulp it down as a drink... took a sip, omg it was bitter, strong n.... den we had headed for Gimpo airport to catch our domestic flight to Jeju... just when everything is going smoothly, the unexpected happened... lol.. Guess wad? our flight was experiencing some technical difficulties as it was taxi-ing to the runway, so our flight was kinda grounded while they conduct checks n stuff... after sitting for close to an hour on the plane, we thought that the plane was going to continue its flight, but to our dismay, the flight was cancelled n we had to get off... furthermore, most of the passengers were singaporeans but from different tour agencies tt's all... so everyone couldnt carry out their activites as scheduled... luckily, e flight company managed to prepare another plane for us... so from our 4.45pm flight, it was delayed till 8.30pm.. so we still managed to reach Jeju n checked into the hotel... tt's how the day ended,but not before a stop at the 24 hour mart next to the hotel to see what kinda food n drinks tt were available...

Took tons of pictures which are definitely impossible to upload, so here r a some of them:
