Day 8

Day 8: Goodbye Korea

We went down a little earlier than the arranged time cos yz decided to buy another pack of masks wakakaa :P it's reallie hard to resist when it's so cheap~

More photo taking b4 we say goodbye to the hotel...

Errr ya the focus was meant to be Siwon but i kinda wanna be seen too :| hahahah

Off to a bit more shopping..the heels there are not cheap, abt 40+ per pair but i can tell it's of good quality lah...just a bit heart pain so i did not buy them plus i am not wearing very easy to take off shoes for trying~ in the end got a couple more accessories even tho they are quite ex...now i can really understand why other places sell korean accessories at such a high price...even in korea, they are not cheap :\

anw the clothes are not that cheap either...onli those that were on sale are ok...i think i will stick to hk and tw for clothes bah :| but i will definitely go korea to get their beauty products! seriously i wanna go in summer so that the luggage will have more space for things bot :D


Got my new hat!
the weather was still pretty cold that day...even though i was wearing 2 layers alr but still cold esp when the wind blows...
Then off to take the seagull cruise...basically the coach gets on the boat as well and cross the sea...the weather then was REALLY cold, i really tot my nose might fall off anytime and my fingers were frozen :'(
the seagulls had very good aim though, anywhere u throw the crackers, they can catch it...u can be sure that they dun waste food haha

After going to a "provision" store to get our food - where i got my seaweed and some yummy chocolate pie made of mochi-like and peanut fillings, we headed for the airporttttttttttt...T_T



At the airport...the first time in my life, my luggage was overweight -.- like seriously, they set the max as 25, and in the end, my luggage was like 28kg! -.- faintz...and bao's one was 29! lol shesh...the whole tour and only the 2 of ours are overweight ! how embarrassing..and the tour guide still say we carry gold back?! -.-"
Last group shot which our tour guide asked a pretty lady to help us take, once she took it, she left, as if afraid we will ask her to take more...haha...according to bao, even tho mr tour guide kept saying he will miss us etc...the moment we queued to go in, he disappeared..lol

Went to starbucks again...seems like we like to go starbucks while waiting to board our plane...ahhahaa...and we poured out all our loose change to get our drinks and the ahjuma next to us kept staring at us as if thinking these 3 girls are so poor that they had to pour their money to buy a drink -.- seriously. don't judge so readily. anw we noticed that they actually have this to sort out their trash..guess it's easier to recycle them?


While waiting to board, Annyeong!

Day 7

Day 7 - SHOPPING TIME!

While waiting for the family...(they went to the wrong floor)...keke
Breakfast was 豆浆油条!mr tour guide seemed to be under the impression that he was giving us a treat to eat this...hahaha...but the doujiang was without sugar...so not so nice to me...and i am reallie like a mantou freak...i like the mantou :))))


SO crowded...a lot of chinese tourists apparently...
Then off to Odbo~ :D and the start of our shopping spreeeeeeeeeeeee...seriously, had no image there sia, joanne asked me where i got the eye patch while i was at the counter waiting to pay so i had to lead her to the shelf and run back to the counter...mr tour guide witnessed all this and laughed -.- i think to him, all women are crazy when it comes to shopping...hahahaa anw i spent a good 250k won there...that's equivalent to 200+ close to 300 sgd worth of masks/beauty products!!! one again, disclaimer: i bot a lot for my frenz :P
Bao took this so that we know the procedure on which product to put on first...lol

We were at the shop, from when it was super packed until we were one of the last grps left...amazing and we onli have 10 ppl in the tour and that's 7 women lessing off the little girl...hahaha -.- the others actually pulled their products together to get the free luggage but i tot it was a bit hard to decide who to take it if we 3 shared...hahaa..i must say i felt pretty tired after that, purely cos i had to decide shld i get this or not, how much shld i buy...etc etc =.=

After our "exercise", off for lunch :P this shop is opened by a famous ex-actor...of cos we wun know who he is but ya...he is supposedly famous and acted as a bad guy for most of his roles...hahaha he even came out to greet us but i guess was left a little disappointed that no one asked for his photo to be taken kekeke





I liked this meal too...very nice :) and the main focus was that there were a lot of side dishes :P yumz

Then we headed to Myeongdong...we had to negotiate w our tour guide to let us stay longer there...hahahah he was afraid that we will feel hungry etc but he doesn't realise that shopping makes a girl forgets her hunger! haahaa

First stop was into Holika Holika~ woooooo endorsed by CN Blue! (i think the wisma outlet just opened end of March) the colour theme is purple....niceeeeeee :D i bot a blue nail polish there which i LOVE :) it cost 2k won which is abt 2+ sing?

then off to tony moly~ endorsed byyyyyyy BEG and Joongki! ok i admit, my main aim was hoping i buy sth and they will give me a Joongki item but no such luck i got the eyeshadow and top coat for nails but NO freebies except for a pen :( awwwwwwwww...but i must say the things are still not as cheap...imagine that in singapore, it's even worse -.-

Went into a few more shops and met baoyun and xiuhui, then they talked abt the laneige serum which baoyun tot was very good~ so we headed to laneige andddddddd i ended up buying a Bebe perfume (which smells REALLY nice) as well...tsk tsk tsk - money flew away...then they told me i need to like buy another dunno how much worth and be entitled to more discount sooooooooooooo i ended up getting an eyeshadow which i actually do like cos it's really easy to apply and the colour shows up well...must more worth it than the tony moly one :\ so in the end they gave me a set of freebies...a whole set of facial products, serums, eye creams and whatsnot :) Then i also bot some eye masks at Saem (never heard of it) and the cashier guy threw in A WHOLE bunch of samples! one of which was the mask and i absolutely loved it cos it fits well on the face like another layer of skin...i am so gonna get whoever is going korea to help me buy some back!

Natural Republic - endorsed by Rain and JYJ - i am glad Micky cut his hair hahaa

With Rain - we took this secretly, these lifesize cut outs were placed at a corner, beside the lift, it was only cos i think no one could see us that i agreed to take the photos :P
With Jaejoong and Micky Yoochun

The crowded street of Myeongdong

Where i bot my pink iphone case...actually i dunno how much such case costs in singapore but bao say it's cheaper there that's why i bot it :P but sadly, the camera hole doesn't fit perfectly so when i took photo, the corner will have a little bit of shadow :\ but i do like the fact that it protects my iphone on both sides so i guess i will just have to live w it...and take it out from the case whenever i wanna take photos? haha

Overall i tot we didn't have much time...cos we only covered abt 1 main street and 1 smaller alley...sad...i wanna go back there on free and easy!! and non-winter time toooooooooo...

Then it's our last dinner in korea - ginseng chicken!
Yumz~ compared to 8 yrs ago, i think i am able to appreciate it better this time :)


The ginsengsssss :P

I wanna comment that the etude house is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo much cheaper there!! the hand cream that came in a set of 4 was sold at usd20 or maybe 16 over there and here, 1 is selling at SGD16.90!! crazyyyyyyyyyy! =.=
My conquest+gifts to frenz!! my happiest buy is the bebe perfume actually hahaa but i also love the etude house collagen mask and odbo aqua soothing essence~
