i looooooooveeeeeeeee koreaaaaaaaaaaaa... hahaha where did i stop explaining again? ah hair salon.. yeah.. after that... what did i do again? oh yeah on that day i went out with yj's friends hung out had a taste of korean karaoke and drinking korean alcohol (shochu) well the alcohol percentage is 20% but the bitterness rivals that of vodka.. so yuck... but yeah.. let me see korean karaoke is different from japanese karaoke.. for one.. the koreans dont really sing well i dont really know how do japanese girls sing.. but my friends were screaming in high pitch voices and palying with the tamborine.. yeah that aint fun.. anyways.. my malaysian friend told me that japanese girls scream too.. i think its only the south east asians who dont scream.. they sing.. hahaha but thats just my opinion.. hahah

next day i went to yj's relatives house to pick peaches.. 桃仮 ももかり yeah apparently her mom's side had 6 sisters and one younger brother.. therefore 6 aunties and 1 uncle.. yeah they all wanted to meet me.. and then the little cousins and the not so little cousins.. hahaha very funny la.. cos they can understand a little english and very little japanese.. was reliant on yj and yj's mom for translations.. hahah yeah went to the eldest sisters house which the husband and wife and their two sons built from scratch by themselves... how freakking cool and devoted is that!!?!? not just any house.. a traditional korean house with the logs and the mud.. not cement... cool ne? yeah they had.. a peach farm.. chickens.. goats... chilli... turkey... pumpkin.. yeah pretty cool.. hhaha... was so funny we were all so prepared to pick peaches.. sunblock check, hat check, mosquito repellent check, long sleeved shirt check, sports shoes check.. yoshhh! lets go.. half an hour later... not a lot of ripe peaches cannot collect.. retreat.... im like.. HA~H?!??! oh well cant do anything about it... sat around in the house for the whole day doing nothing but watching tv and eating.. very very bad.. the aunties and grandma were like boko? boko? bokoooo~ which means eat? eat.. eattttttt~ i keep telling them no.. but they just keep on giving.. very very bad.. terrible... ate a cold noodle dish... for lunch and bibimbap for dinner.. and loads of peaches in the inbetweens when they keep serving fruits and biscuits.. yeah bad for me.. hahaha next day.. what did i do again ah?

anyways i did not bring with planner with me so i cant remember the order.. but yeah i went to a water theme park on tuesday.. carribean bay.. gila big eh the place.. it was a public holiday for korea... therefore loads of people.. but then they say that the place is always full of people.. yeah woke up at 430 set off at 5am.. reached there at 645am.... and then people where already queueing for the tickets.. while other people where queueing for the entrance.. yeah its that scary when the park opens at 830am.. yeah we played in the water park from 8 am till 8 pm... gila.. in the wave pool shit.. i've never been pushed and touched by so many people in my life.. ahha (and no not that touch you filthy lech) hahaah i mean that lots of grabbing.. looking for friends here and there.. i tell you.. it's a battle out there... when the wave is over.. everyone battles to get out of the pool.. shoving and finding a way out.. not very pretty.. hahah and also i tried the water slides.. that you usually see in the disneyland water park advertisements.. yeah that was boring.. made it look fun but.. wasnt that fun.. hahah i waited so long in hot sun.. yeah them lines were long.. there were many other rides but i just wasnt up to waiting in line.. so yeah.. how do people do it i wonder?

hmmm... i dunno what day but i went to a korean folk village park too.. it was big too.. one of the places where the jewel in the palace drama was screened.. also another korean movie.. the king and the clown? ka na? very hot movie? a bit of slash material.. i likey muahahha.. so hot the place... want to die ah...

anyways the main thing is i went to the shopping central in seoul on the last day.. that was chou saikou!!!長最高!!!dongdaemun... what is dongdaemun? what makes it so special? first its not a building its a shopping district.. think of it like orchard road.. only BIGGER much much bigger..and the whole area comes alive only at 8pm till 4am in the morning.. selling nothing but clothes clothes clothes clothes and more clothes... and accessories and of course the fake goods.. and another thing is.. this place is the main central where first hand imported new shipment of clothes come to.. so therefore latest fashion.. before they get sold to smaller boutiques.. in other words.. BULK IMPORTED CLOTHES WHOLESALE.. i love it.. dont you just love the sound of it? makes your mouth water dont it? hahaha yeah shopped till 12 only.. why? tired and running dangerously low on cash.. i bought like a shitload of clothes from korea.. when i promised myself not to some more.. but i cant help it.. so CHEAP... three pairs of sunglasses 4 hats.. and got tons of presents from yj's relatives...

right.. back to the family business.. yeah in ten days i totally felt like yj's family member.. the aunties were all so kind.. the grandma.. totally hugsy type of person.. first time met her.. hug! uwa~! annyong haseyo halmoni... the aunties too.. ahha the uncle so the farny.. haha speak in broken english and japanese.. hahha i feel so indebted to them.. they paid for all my entrance tickets, meals, got me souvenirs (kimchi and loads of korean nori- seaweed) and the second aunt got me a hat.. when i wanted to buy the hat for sasa.. now im in a pinch.. to give the hat to sasa or.. keep it for me.. technically it was a gift for me... and i was just trying it on for sasa.. went they said i looked too cool in it.. too cool man too cool.. hahahah haa...
