My First Day!

Hello! My flight was super uncomfortable... back ache, neck ache, everywhere ache, plus the turbulence... oh my stomach. But still, it was really quite fun, was so excited when it lifted off, oh and the weather in seoul is really really good! its cloudy at the moment, not much of sun, but its really breezy, say around 25 degrees or so. Really nice =)
anyway, i have to prove to you that the picture quality on my handphone is still acceptable, so here are a couple of pics on my flight first! My midnight snack! Funny thing is... Soleha's halah food was so much more appetizing. There was a choice of eating the korean food though, but i didn't choose it, da jie and willette should know.. the kind where they just dump everything into the rice and mix it up, kimchi, red pepper paste, oooh, i wasn't sure if i was ready for that yet, so i stuck with the fish choice instead.

And here's a closer look at my main meal...

Oh and the black thing? its mushrooms, ha! dehydrated ones, no juice.
Ok, and the entire plane was filled with lots and lots of koreans, and woah, some of them are quite fierce actually, kind of scary. And just like the drama serials that we watch, when they argue, they just have to shout really loud to let everyone see and hear.
Anyway, it was quite impossible to sleep on the plane, wake up and sleep, wake up and sleep, definitely less than 4 hours i think... we reached at around 5.45am, so that's 4.45am at singapore time when all of you guys are soundly asleep.

Okay, are a few pics that i took of the airport, not much really, but anyway, it still looks great =)


Things did not go the way we want it to be also, because our pick-up, it didn't come. So we spent like an hour or so, trying to get phone numbers, trying to learn how to use the phone and its horribly crazy i tell you. The information counter was not very helpful, she could not speak good english as well and she wasn't friendly. We end up having to buy one international phone card and one local phone card and they cost 10000 won each! But anyway, don't worry, the administrator back home in singapore called me, she was not able to be of much help but in the end, we waited for geraldine to touch down as her pick-up arrived for her. Anyway, this pick-up, its basically a student volunteer from SKKU to bring us to our dormatories. So we took a bus, lasted for around 45 minutes or so i would say, and here are some pics along the way! Oh and really, please don't worry, everything went fine anyway, and the bus fee its free, its provided by the school.





Okay, these pics are mainly from the highway, now we go into the more bustling area!



Okay, this picture above? its yonsei university, looks really cool rite? i couldn't take a lot of pics.. the bus just keeps moving and moving. Oh and our student guide? he's a guy, called sung won, their english... very cute! broken english, but you basically get what they are trying to say. He's been helpful also, helped with our luggages, so ... no worries ok?
More PICS!

And this is some college of medicine i think.. by the way, you can always click on the pictures to enlarge them ok?



Okay, these are basically what i took during the bus ride, the rest of the girls were just basically sleeping! and the weather is so good that even the bus didn't have to on the aircon and it still feels cool!
