放学后，到新村吃麦当劳。
特别的有，Bulgogi Burger （牛肉）和 Sae-wu Burger （虾仁汉堡）
价钱方面嘛，套餐4,400韩币（RM13.30）；汉堡3，400韩币（RM10.30）
比较贵吧……
之后，去 Lotte World 游乐场。
户外的，比云顶小一点；室内和First World大小差不多，可是比较多样化。
第一站，
还好~ 稍微被甩几下罢了~
第二站，
海盗船。以前和弟弟坐过一次，坐在中间没什么。
这次是坐在最尖端倒数第二排，天！！！跌下来时连“啊”都喊不出~
第三站，
大型海盗船。
我为什么会上去？！！！
同样的，跌下来失去重心的感觉，我不喜欢……很难受……
哈，我算是创纪录了~
晚到傍晚，吃了黑黑甜甜的炸酱面 자장면 Jjajangmyeon
过后因为下雨，没得玩。
就回宿舍咯~
（等些时候放些照片！）

Korea (Week1) - Thursday 020709
凌晨开始下起骤雨，好冷好冷~
一起床，同房就开始抱怨外面的雨，说如果是“台风”，学校放假那该多好~
哈……
其实那雨下得虽大，常年在热带雨林国家生活惯了，倒不觉得怎样~
因为下雨，取消了和Buddy的“约会”
原本想和她一起吃饭然后到处观光的……
因为下雨，哪儿都不能去
大伙儿就提议去梨大附近的理发院，韩文为“美容室 미용실 Mi-yong-sil”
据说，韩国的烫发技术比较好，尤其是卷发和接发
而且比较便宜
电卷发，我这种长度、比较薄一点的，大约25,000韩币（约75马币），效果一流。
揭发，从肩膀再长一点接到我这种长度，大约75,000韩币（约225马币）。
所以说，
若要到韩国来，先别去弄头发，到了韩国再弄~

Korea (Week1) - Wednesday 010709
Afternoon, Korean Cooking Class...
Learnt to make 불고기 김치 비빔밥 (Fried Beef + Kimchi Bibimbap)
Yummy yummy~
After lessons, went to shop~
In front of YiHwa Women University; short-formed Yidae 이대 梨大
Coz it's a girl school, the entire area in front of it became a shopping paradise.
Streets full of shops selling clothes, shoes, bags, etc...
And the prices are normally between 5,000 to 15,000 Won (RM15 - 45)
At the end, bought myself a shirt and pants=)
Another interesting scene in Korea is that:
Almost all girls put make-up
and hence,
cosmetic shops like TheFaceShop, SkinFood, NaturalRepublic etc are EVERYWAY
and according to friends (coz i never bought cosmetic before),
the prices are cheap...
Sometimes, the same brand is half the price in Singapore...
Wow~
And coz it is very competitive among the cosmetic shops,
they will give out samples, esp during evening and night.
Just take the basket from the salesgirl at front door,
go in and walk one round,
come out with the samples in the basket.
Sometimes, can get postcard or poster or files with celebrity on it,
such as 裴勇俊 and Kim Hyeon Joon from SS501 （韩版流星花园花样男子的花泽类）
=)
Evening after dinner, went for Ais Kacang,
called 밭빙수 Pat-Bingsu in korean
Very special, coz they add cereal, fruits and rice cake (韩版炒年糕的年糕）
Buy one free one, big bowl~
Phew~~

Korea (Week1) - Tuesday 300609
Lessons at Yonsei University Korean Language Institute start...
I was quite surprised to learn new grammar here,
'coz our Korean tutor in NUS said we won't be learning new stuffs,
mostly revise and practise only~
Anyway, learning new stuffs is exciting!
Didn't go out with friends after school
'coz was meeting my buddy in the afternoon, at dorm.
Nice girl, I feel that she is one with strong personalities.
Slim, Short Hair...named 박수빈 Park Su Bin=)
Since she is older than me, I call her Eonni (Big Sis)
And this is actually the Korean "culture" to greet elders and seniors
Either call them 선배 (Seon-Bae 前辈；学长、学姐) or more close can call:
1) Girls calling girls: 언니 Eonni/Unni
2) Girls calling guys: 오빠 Obba (should say it in a "sweet" way:p)
3) Guys calling girls: 누나 Noona
4) Guys calling guys: 형 Hyeong
Those much older persons can call them:
1) Uncle: 아저씨 Ajeossi
2) Aunty: 아주머니 Ajoomeoni
3) Anyone older, with a post or profession, eg teachers, doctors, bus and taxi drivers, security guards: 선생님 Seonsaengnim
Should never miss out all these when addressing or calling others
If not, it's seen as impolite and rude...

Korea (Day1) - Sunday 280609
Woke up at 3am in the morning
Finally everything is packed into 2 luggages
Dad drive me to Changi Airport, with all mum, bro and my aunt
tired~not enough sleep coz was watching Boys Over Flower the night before
Reached Changi at 6am
Met 2 friends from NUS at 630am and check-in together
My luggages are 28kg in total!!
Went for breakfast with family before taking off
Ha
can't believe that I'm actually leaving for Korea on myself
...
Board the plane at 8am
taking Cathay Pacific
departed at 830am, no delay
arrived at Hong Kong around 12noon, no delay
have a quick lunch, chicken rice in the airport
departed again around 3+, flight delayed due to rain
finally...
Reached Incheon International Airport around 730pm (local time is 1hr ahead)
phew~ so tiring...
got a bit heaty, 37.4deg Celcius
luckily can pass thru the temperature checking
these days...A(H1N1) is terrible...
Reach Korea, and the adventure started
Firstly, got to buy mineral water to cool myself down
Ha, i used Korean to buy things. First time, and succeeded=)
Then we have to buy bus tickets to the hostel
called Mu-ak dormitory in Yonsei University
Beatrice was well-prepared, mission completed
and we got on to the bus safely.
On the bus, I realised sth wrong~
and Digi was not working !!!
meaning i couldn't call and sms back home to inform parents
no choice, borrow Beatrice's phone (Thanks a lot)
After 1hr travel, we reached Sinchon, the city where Yonsei is located in.
And now, big problem...
the taxi drivers REFUSED to take us to Mu-ak!!!
reason: Yonsei U is TOO NEAR~
Faint~
Finally 2 taxis agreed to take us
but, lost our way... -__________-'''
Scary...
At last reached Mu-ak around 9pm~
Phew~
Had my first meal with Beatrice and Yihui
----Ramyeon (拉面，可其实是快熟杯面）
Back room,
met my roommate!
...a Korean, named 수연권 Su Yeon Kwon...
Nice and sweet girl=)
Later took shower after one whole day of traveling
HA!!!
I was SHOCKED by the toilets
well...
there are 3 cubicles, well, with doors...
but they are SEMI-TRANSPARENT！！！
半透明的厕所！碰到水就会变得更透明的那种玻璃~
不可能不冲凉，只好什么都不管了~
Culture-shock!!!
Later, had some chats with my roommates
then slept at 2am~
at last……

????????
还有三天就要飞韩国了~
现在的心情嘛……兴奋、紧张……
其中夹杂着隐隐约约的担心和害怕~
虽然说独自在新加坡生活了几年（天！竟然有“几年”了！），
但新加坡和新山只是隔了条海峡罢了，近乎每个星期都会看见家人。
这次，是韩国~
是隔了整个南中国海的陌生国家。
人生地不熟，语言、文化统统不通~
学了一年韩文，其实只不过是幼儿园的水准罢了……
想轻松自在地在韩国生活一个月，或许没想象中简单~
哈，这回我豁出去了！
爸妈不放心，就连学校的汉文老师也担心我。
上回聚餐离席之前，老师还“特别交代”，
要我撇下静静被动的个性，
是呀，得豁出去！！！
借用某人的名言：
Aza Aza Fighting!!!

MeetingS during Hols
星期四
答应学姐帮她弄讲座，只好回新加坡跟她见面看场地。
难得学姐信得过我，我就接下这份工作，
多学点东西也不错啦~
之后，Health and Fitness Club AGM
讲好6点半的，结果7点多才开始。
“一家人”，挺有耐性等的，哈哈……
这次的AGM，使我看过最透明、最民主开放的~
先是竞选人至三分钟的词，然后回答问题，最后投票~
看是简单的程序，却花超过一个小时的时间，
全体上届委员投票、讨论，一致通过之后，
才选出下届主席和副主席。
而我呢，决定放下Webmaster的职位，
竞选财政！！
结果……
没有其他对手，不战而胜~
呵呵~
因为时间晚了，就寄住在Jia的房。
感谢Jia收留我~
哈哈，还看日剧看到1点~
《极道鲜师》，挺好看的！
星期五
12点起床~
继续看日剧~
下午5点钟收拾后出门
6点和韩文版的老师及同学见面聚餐
讨论去韩国的事~
下星期日就飞首尔了
期待期待！！！

enCOre 09
以校友的身份，硬着头皮回英华演出。
前一两个星期一直在挨骂，到后来指挥都撒手不怎么管我们曲笛了~
从一开始的兴奋期待，慢慢到后来的受挫失落，
最后竟以很平淡的心情上台。
和往年很不一样啊！
演出的不怎么好，但也让我过足了瘾。
一年多没碰笛子，为了这次演出猛练，吹够了~
遗憾的是，2007年的金牌曲目搞砸了~
开心的是，和很多老师朋友、seniors、juniors重逢~
很谢谢爸爸妈妈弟弟，还有两个好姐妹赶过来捧场。
感动啊!
enCOre
咱们明年再见，
在观众席见！

I'm Back
重新弄了个版面，哈哈，好像有点幼稚的说。
刚拿到上学期的成绩。
有进步，但是不满足，
毕竟，主课考得不理想~
反而是那些Elective modules考到A和A-...
下学期不能懒散了呀！
振作起来，拼了！
* * * * *
去了几个星期的华乐排练，也被骂了几个星期。
信心受损、受创伤……
曾经被器用，现在却……
哎，算了，
表演能顺利举行，就不错了。
谁要来捧场啊？！！
给我传简讯~
