My Hongdae Trip! (10March2014)

so here's about my trip to Hongdae. i cant believe i went to Hongdae during the day and on Monday! haha!

the thing is that, my mentor who i called JooPica asked me out. then she asked me where is the place that i really want to go. at that time, i have nothing on my mind. anywhere will be fine.

so the next day when we met, she suggested that we go to Hongdae to hangout. maybe at the cafes of somewhere there to have lunch.

after walking for quite sometime, we reached here!!! HELLO KITTY CAFE!!!

i couldnt waste any more time. we went inside the cafe and look at the menu displayed

there are not many choices. but one thing for sure, there are soooooo cute!

this is me while waiting to order at the counter. i am sooooo excited and i order a few desserts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

while waiting for the food to come, i couldnt help myself but to take lotssssss of photos of the cafe as well as myself in there. the cafe is superbly cute. and everything was hello kitty!

u can see how excited i am by looking at my face ^.^

 

 

so here are the few things we ordered while spending time in the cafe. i ordered chocolate waffle with banana aside and tiramisu. and not to forget, lattes. caramel latte and green coffee latte.

  

so these are the pics of the woman's toilet! isnt it cute? i love the pink color of the toilet! makes me feel more in love with it!

 

 

above is the seat i sit! isnt it cute too? urgh! i love everything in this cafe!

 

 

 

  

and here are the pics of the man's toilet!

haha! i couldnt help myself to not taking pictures of this. even that it is not pink, i still think that its cute. hello kitty should be also accepted by the guys out there. its not a girly thing.

 

so thats about the Hello Kitty Cafe.

then we walked around Hongdae. my mentor wanted to bring me to this gallery. Korean is also famous for their inventing passions.

so this place is called 'SangSangMaDang'

 

 

 

in the gallery, there are lotsssss of things that are invented by the Koreans in order to make human's life easier. its a waste that i cant take picture in this gallery. this is not just gallery. they sell the stuff too. very modern and unique. and there are also hand made items.

i can say that, the Koreans are superbly talented people!

moving on --->

we continue walking again to find the Coffee Prince Cafe

rakyat Malaysia yg g Korea especially girlssss mesti nk g cafe ni. well, bkn murah nk g Korea ni, kn? alang2 dah sampai, mesti la g.

to see the cafe, from the drama in front of our eyes kn..? ^.^ i understand. i feel that too

i love the drama.

but, the cafe is just ordinary for me. but the coffee is expensive than other place, so do the dessert. hurm, maybe once okay laa..

 

 

 

 

i ordered Americano and tiramisu :)

it was okay. but nothing special.

 

then we went back to where we came from. the Hongdae streets. to find things that i can eat. the safe choice is, 'bibimbap' no meat, no chicken, no pork. just an egg, rice and lotsssss of vege.

dont be surprise, very tiny stall have this machine. this machine displays menu and take orders from customer. and we need to pay at here too. then take the receipt to the 'ahjumma' and she will prepare ur food. very convenience!

 

tadaaa..! 'bibimbap'!

delicious and easy to eat!

My Trip to ChangDeokGung (8March2014)

this is my solo trip everrrrr

without my mom..and brother..and dad..

seriously?

YES, and i never thought i will be experiencing this in my life

something like, study abroad..alone..and making friendsssss..and only talking in English..and lil bit of Korean..

SERIOUSLY?

i feel like im in a dream!

but,

living alone makes me miss everyone especially mom, dad, bro, and last but not least, Mr.Saranghae!!!

i used to see him everyday..but now..? only KakaoTalk..WhatsApp..

and i miss to fight with my Mom and Bro..

hukhukhuk!

if i dont have money, how can i ask my bro..? :(

and every weekend dah xbalik my dad's house :(

but i have to be strong..another 12 weeks to go!

time will fly..without me even notice..hihi

so, without further delay, i will straight to my post here on my ChangDeokGung's trip.

on my last trip with my Mom and Bro, we didnt enter this palace. since we're out on Monday that day, this palace was closed. then we went to GeongBukGung. 

so,

to get here, i think the easiest way is to go by subway. and its cheap too.

take the subway, and get off at Jongno(3)-ga. after going out from the subway station, u may see lots of signs pointing to the palace.

 

so, first thing first. PHOTO SESSION!

this is me in front of the palace :)

 

 

i find that, i fell in love with the paints. haha! very nice, isnt it?

 

 

and the weather that day was soooo nice.

after that, we walked to Insa-Dong for more sight seeing. haha! 

since ive been there, i dont really amazed of that area. there are sooooo many people there especially the tourists. and lots of souvenirs there, and so do talented people who displays their works on the streets.

it was a very nice window shopping trip! 

 

we are at the famous SSanziegil. gile ramai nak mampos org. terase malas pulak nk bersesak dgn sume org. so we decided not to go up there.

well, ive been there before, so its not a waste for me. hihi! 

 

 

 

this is an ice cream..stuffed in a 'keropok jagung'. i saw my lecturer done this before, so im eager to try this. okay la..biase je..and this costs me KW3,000. that freezing cold ice cream in the freezing cold environment. kinda regret. because i have to hold that ice cream, i cant warm my hands in my pockets.

oh yea, thats Rezza. we came together from UniKL but he is in Semyung University. that weekend, he was in Seoul. so i dragged him here too. haha! 

^.^
