Hello there,

since i first stepped my feet in this land named Korea, ive drank coffee like superbly a lot!

so now im kinda used to Korean Lifestyle of drinking coffee after meals..or even to just hanging out.

my mom told me that coffee is not good because of the caffeines.

yes, after some readings, ive got to agree with my mom.

here is what i got from the internet.

the best time to consume coffee

these are basically what happen to you due to excessive intake of caffeine. 

long term intake of beer will eventually damage ur organs

think twice

alcohol is not the answer for everything

yes, it will make u creative..but it also cause lot of troubles..

when ure drunk, u know what happen

so, do drink coffee in moderation.

its not that we cant..it just that watch what u consume..

in my opinion, just black coffee without sugar is okay..

just like what i did

i did put any sugar in it, unless its too bitter..but i only put in little bit..just to get rid of the bitter taste :)

thats all for me for this entry tonight

take care and stay healthy peeps!

We at Lotte World :)

Assalamualaikum..

as usual, every week mesti nk pergi somewhere..

kebetulan, friends from Semyung University are coming

so we decided to take on Lotte World

Yay

Lotte World for me was okay laaa..

for someone who've been to Disneyland, i think Lotte World is not really that fun as compared to the stories i heard on people's review..quite disappointed thou ~

we are so lucky that we got coupons to get into this amusement park

instead of 44 000won, we got to get in with only 16 000won

there are lots of pic taken using my friends' camera..i will continue updating on the pics soon. for now, these are all i have

 

 

and..

after that we went to Itaewon for dinner

 

 

these are quite good and kinda expensive too

but its all worth it :)

once in a while is fine thou ~

i think this is all for now

my first ever experience..online test

hello there,

today i would like to share my experience on the psychometric test that ive just took just now.

well i guess it is true that this test is for them to identify whether or not we can think wisely.

im kinda lucky that there are few friends of mine who already took that test earlier (different sessions). so they told me whats in there.

the test was divided into 3 sections; A B and C

section A, there are questions that required us to think outside the box. its like mind game.

section B, questions on ourselves. we rate ourselves based on the qualities given.

and lastly, 

section C, more on general knowledge. i think this section is the most difficult! urgh! i wish i have more time to think or even google!

but whats done is done.

now i will just wait for the results..soooooo scary isnt it? damn it! i wish i studied more!!!

* * * * *

at first, i was just applying just because everyone is applying. honestly, i dont have the confidence to get these because my application dont really meet their requirements.

my pointer is not that great.

i dont have working experiences.

and i didnt get any offer letter yet.

then, when a friend of mine who is in Korea here with me checked and he got it, i was like 

"hurmm..its okay..i know i wont get it"

then he asked for my IC no. and guess what? I GOT IT!

that was one of the nest thing in my life that ever happened to me! and i was almost cried!

according to this, i have to take an online psychometric test. so i googled it. there are soooooo many people has done this before. so i read their experiences. so from there, i got myself ready a lil bit.

when the day actually come, i just answered those questions. i can say that there are hard questions and there are also easy questions. 

when i finished the test, i got this slip stated that ive sat for the test :)

the test from my point of view was hard. i wish i have more time to answer those questions. 1 hour is not enough, especially when you have math question to answer. 

anyway, im praying for the best now.

i really hope i will get this.

its been my dream since ever to go abroad to study. to open my eyes to sooooo many beautiful things in this world.

my target is that, i want to get my PhD before i reach 30.

ive been thinking about my interview too.

how am i suppose to go for interview if im in Korea right now? the interview will be held next week. what if they reject my application after they find out that im not in Malaysia right now? seriously, this is bothering me soooooo much!

what should i do?

ive done my best for the test..now, interview..

insyaAllah.

"kalau ade rezeki, ade la. right now, tawakkal je la"

till then,

My Itaewon Trip (16March2014)

since i landed in Korea 26 February ago, i didnt had meat or chicken..

oh yea, i almost forgot i had chicken at the campus's caferia. but it was seriously 'ciput'.

so today, i decided to go to Itaewon, a.k.a the 'halal paradise' (thats what i think of Itaewon).

 

this is me, while waiting for the bus to the nearest train station, Wangsimni (pronounce as wangshimni)

*Mark&Spencer Jeans, tailored blouse, Madamoiselle by Etoile long jacket, ClarksAir shoes and brandless handbag* 

so this is the bus i usually take to go to that station. it used to be bus no 2220, but now it changed to bus no 4211. it doesnt stop at where i use to stop at. i have to walk farer than before :( 

many will ask, why didnt i take the one in Hanyang university? the answer is that, YES, its in Hanyang. but the thing is that it is far from my dormitory. i have to walk just like i walk to class everyday with 2 small hills and stairs. and there is no bus.

so i took the easiest way to get to the train station, which is by bus. and the bus station were just infront of my dormitory :)

besides, Wangsimni station is more convenience since this station is the interchange station. which i can change the subway line. *if you dont know, Seoul have sooooooo many subway lines. in order for you to go to one place, u may need to transfer a few times* 

so this is the station, Wangsimni. from here, i have to go to Sindang (pronounce as 'Shindang') and take line 6 towards Cheonggu (pronounce as 'Chonggu') and stop at Itaewon station. and from there, take exit 3. when ure out from the subway, u may see lotssssss of halal restaurant and mostly, middle eastern restaurant. Turkish, Dubai, Pakistani. 

i decided to eat Turkish food today which is kebab.

 

the name of the restaurant is Pasha. when ure out from the subway exit 3, walk straight, then u will see this restaurant. its just a small restaurant. 

this is me while waiting for the food to come. my excited face to eat the chicken!!! 

tadaaa! this is Chicken Iskander Kebab and it costs KW8,500. Lots of chicken slices. underneath that chickens, there are panini bread and served with a lil bit of fries. truly Turkish taste! 

this restaurant is famous for this wrap, but is doesnt attract my interest..hihi! 

if u ever come to Itaewon, there are variety of halal food choices. if u just came here for a vacation like a week or two, i suggest u to go and have a real Korean food.

i dont think u may miss chicken or meat during that time. but as for me, ive been here for almost a month now. so i kinda want to eat chicken and meat.

here, u may see lots of foreigner!

as for me, Itaewon is not really for me. i will only some here for the halal food :)

My Gangnam & COEX Mall Trip (15March2014)

when we talk about Korea, the most famous things about it is the singers, and beauty products..

anf if we talk about singer, there are lotsssssss of Korean singer..right? i think the most famous is PSY. because of his Gangnam Style song..am i right? everyone in this whole wide world know him, right?

so, i went to the famous Gangnam.

 

i didnt miss the chance to take a picture of that Gangnam's signage. 

this is the main road of Gangnam.

well, biase biase je..the street are filled with sooooo many locals and international brands shop and boutique..

i came here to see what is soooooo great about Gangnam that all Koreans are talking about.

if theyre talking about clubs, Malaysia have this kind of area too..i think very similar to Bukit Bintang..or Changkat..

maybe because there are sooooo many elite people here..

then,

COEX Mall.

okay la..just like Malaysian Pavillion and KLCC..

all branded items here

and there is Aquarium in there too

according to the internet, COEX is the largest underground shopping and exhibition center im not sure whether in Korea or in Asia..something like that laaaaa

 

 

 

cute headband i saw in the souvenir shop 

 

today is their re-opening..so they gave beverages, popcorns/cotton candy, and cookies for free!

i love their pink concept! 

 

this is ABC Mart. kalau kt Malaysia mcm Al-Ikhsan la..all branded sport shoes..byk sale.. 

 

on the right, its the jewellery that was inspired from dramas..sooooo cute!
