i'm back~

The semester break started last month,

many things happened,

went to Seoul and it was my first ever solo trip oversea too!

Ahh, it's freezing cold and I should've went with my sister,Kila..

So what did I do there?

Let the pictures speak..

Day 2- Ys: YG Ent HQ & YONSEI UNIV

Annyeong!~

Woke up at 7 am, phew,what a long sleep!

Today,we wanted to stroll around Hongdae!

But first,we're girls on a mission: to witness the YG Building!!!

It's just a station away from our exit, so why not? ^^

We took Line 2,and off at the Hapjeong Station,exit 8.

Followed th direction given at a site,we found it!!

Saw the YG Building with our own eyes! *_*

Actually it's not that gigantic as we imagined it should be,it's just right.

By the time we arrived,there's the vans,and one was in it's way out.

Only God knows who's inside.

So we decided to wait for a while.

And then,tadaa,came the famous trainer,Hwangssabu-nim!

*sorry no-pic* *respect others privacy*

kekeke,he's not tall aka short! I wonder who's inside the building! :o

We do met with some other I-YG stans on our way to the building.

After a while,we went into the G25 shop to buy food & recharge our T-Money.

Guess who came in???

It's Harang's Papa ~ The Sean Ro!

He bought milk and walk into the building.

But I din say anything nor ask for his sign.

*sorry no-pic* *respect others privacy*

Then came out the famous manager , Boyoung Unnie! ^^

*sorry no-pic* *respect others privacy*

kekeke,she's with another unnies,maybe going out for lunch.

We met a pair of J-VIPz, they waited for a while,even took memorial picture with us.

But then,it's too cold for us to wait any longer,so we left.

Of course,so sad! But happy,bcuz like 'gah,finally!' :D

We want to go to Hongik Univ but then again,ended up at another way.

Like all of the sudden,we're in Yonsei Univ! hahaha,whatever!

Spent our day in Yonsei campus

& came back to our hostel.

In this kinda weather,indeed,being inside guesthouse is the BEST!! xD

4th Feb-D day: Miss,run for your flight!!!

So 4th of Feb fast approaching! It's D-Day! We're flying to Seoul!

We left the house by 8am , not with a light steps,but with quite worried heart.
How will everyone coop with us not around?

Anyway,arrived at the airport by 9.30 am.
We waited for Min to send us,too.

Then we boarding to LCCT-KL at 10.45 am.
The flight must've been very fast, bcuz we did arrive 10 minutes earlier than scheduled.
Even in the flight to KL, there're many Korean on board.
When we step in the LCCT, oh gosh,so many Koreans!
They came to shop here in Malaysia.

A day before,on Thursday, we exchanged money at KB.
The rate for that time was 0.28, which was quite favorable for us.
But then they didn't have enough won for us,so we managed to exchange up to 50 000won.
However,things wasn't so great on the D-day, the rate was at 0.34! :/
We did exhanged some more cash.

After meeting with my brother, we went to the Medan Selera at LCCT.
Coming from Kelantan, hahaha,of course seeing the prices was quite a culture shock! :o
Well, honestly I do think that it's overpriced,
unfavorable for the locals,since the price applicable at like international rate already.
But still we ate nasi lemak ( RM4.50) & nasi ayam (RM 8.50).

While we're enjoying our overpriced foods,
we already spared sometime to go back to the LCCT.
But then without any prior notice the gate was closed earlier than stated on boarding pass.
By the time we arrived at the gate,it's already closed!!!!!!
Luckily the Air Asia officer was there,
and then he told us that "Miss,run for your flight" "Cut all of the queue" and " Run as fast as you could, because your flight is already preparing to depart".

We run like crazy-mad girls in the LCCT,cutting every lines & everything.
Phew,we made it to flight!! There was us and some Koreans that was running for our flight.
We're so tired, that we fall asleep immidiately .

Arrived at Incheon International Airport by 8pm.
It's freakin freezing -4C, and of course our 3 layers of clothes did great! :D
First impression,wow this airport is huge!

and there's lots of seats provided too.
Like finally get to see the infamous airport that I always saw in the fancams.

Flights rescheduled

Air Asia send me emails & smses to inform me that they had rescheduled our flights.
Not one,but both of our flights.. (well, we got 4 flights to catch)

the one that from KBR-KUL (on our way going to SK)

and the other one is the KL-KBR (on our way back home).

Phew,luckily,both adjustment will not affect our other flight(so far).

Great that we booked hours apart flight, well,considering this will happen.


Ok,next update is that, i screwed my tests...

and for the few more to come, i hope i'll do better.
Final exam will be very soon,

study week will already start around the Christmas time,

then the final will kick off around early January maybe (?).
All the best to you and me! ^^

Lets us score the final exams,

though we might screwed the common test,

it's still not too late yeorobun!

Lets fighting together!!

Fighting!!!!!

South Korea!Less than 100 days!!! :O

Couchsurfing!

The first time I heard/ read about it was from 'Budget Travel Guide South Korea' when I was doing my research for my South Korean trip. Couchsurfing of CS for short is practically free where ones could stay for a few days (or any agreed days) with the host and exchange cultures and travel. This is so interesting when cultures would be shared at ones living room. After reading it from Miss Zarina's blog, I decided to make an account at the site. So here's my profile! I've yet to experience this, but I'd like to try it out when I'm in South Korea soon! Oh,on the other notes, I might be staying at Namsan Guest House when I'm in Seoul :D

what would we do?

about few weeks in South Korea...

tadaaaaa,it's all booked! I meant the flight tickets ^^

soooo, i searched high & low for an itinerary to base on,

and i came across this plan from tripadvisor.

just gonna share it here.

It's not mine,but i think i'll might take some of the suggestion too.

well,who knows.
