Destination 5.2.4 : Writing Paper + Lab Changing + Senior Farewell + Hiking

March 19th
It's another saturday again
woke up very early also as i drank alcohol yesterday
felt kinda refreshed actually but...
i felt giddy after taking hot shower
totally ruined my breakfast plan...

today must go out as weather forecast mentioned that tomorrow will rain
so where are we going today
it's seomyeon again

mengwei (zhengjing's GF) wanna perm her hair
and the rest of the people haven't been there yet
we went there kinda late
walking around seomyeon while waiting for time to meet up

the meeting place

mengwei got her hair permed in a classy looking shop for only 50,000 won (~RM140)
not really expensive for gal's hair
but i heard guys hair cost the same also...

i got a mouse there, 4,800won only (~RM13)
main purpose of it...
play CS and Dota LOL

the dinner

today dinner is very nice looking
and tasted very good
especially the pork >.< (not in the pic)

it's actually an appetizer

and NO REFILL

March 20th

another sunday

and it's a raining day

woke up early morning...

around 8am

OMG it's so f****** early

wth, it's sunday and it's a raining day

please let me sleep a little longer

play a round of dota

and i lost to an EASY AI >.<

i'm still learning

after a moment i felt like changing my hair style
since mengwei got it done quite cheap yesterday
and senior said that that's a place should be even cheaper
so i get the direction
went for brunch
and heard to Pukyong University area

the rain is hmmm... consider no rain for malaysian
so didn't use my umbrella

Park Jun's Saloon (yap's recommendation)
is right behind the exit of the subway...
i tot it's really hard to find

so i went in and ask for coloring my hair white
they've been wondering a while
maybe they not sure how to speak english
after a moment
they said they can't make hair white
it's just like what malaysia do...

so went to another saloon
they also cannot bleach hair to white
and from there i've learnt about their charging
bleach once is the price of setting one hair
so twice will be double and so on...
even bleach/perm/color...
so it'll be really expensive if you really wanna change your hair a lot
i ended up done nothing to my hair
sad... another failure in Korea

so i ended up walking around
doing nothing in pukyung...

then dinner of the day
pumpkin porridge

seems like kind of traditional dish
it seems very small in the menu
but it's a lot
volume of 6 small bowls
the taste is okay
it's too much that made me wanna vomit

March 21st
Another monday again...
but today will be a great day cause
i'm going for dancing class XD

we spent the 1st hour in warming up + stretching
it's totally bboy style of warming up
it reminds me of the training in hell last time
this is kinda hard for me
since i'm never be good in this

then 2nd hour
introduction again
but this time
they need to memorize everybody's name
if you failed to do so
freestyle in the middle

and i've decided to quit korean class XD
because one of my friends said that
since we are not staying here for long
we should go for what we like

suddenly got a message from professor

and we need to meet him tomorrow

since we didn't meet him last friday

supposed to have some radio thingy at 2 tomorrow

since need to meet prof

zinc will go on behalf of me

i keep on asking everyone to replace me before that

and i forgot that i haven't ask my roommate LOL

March 22nd

met with prof

and he wanted us to write some paper to participate in a conference

it will be held in Jeju Island somewhere in May

if we are shortlisted we can fly there for the event XD

the problem is what should we write...

prof said just write whatever we did

we was like, WHAT

how can we publish on what we did in learning phase

we just follow what prof required

he said that it is easier for us to be shortlisted

i will just try my best because

this is a priceless experience

how can i get another chance to participate this kind of event

Dancing 22nd+23rd

another dancing class tonight

another 1 hour warming up

and then it's time to dance

they're divided into 4 groups

girl's broadcasting + girl style, men's broadcasting, popping and bboy

since i never try broadcasting before

i go to that

i'm not sure on what song were we learning

but i just follow LOL

now comes the problem...

when practicing half way

i wonder where the seniors gone...

btw, seniors are the coaches also

so left the juniors there for maybe 30 mins...

same case goes for wednesday

but they've change it to an easier song

MBLAQ - Stay

i really hope that i can get a place to join the conference

went to HomePlus again and ate dokbab

this time got photo and i ate something different

there's still no plan for tomorrow yet

i wonder where should we go tomorrow

don't tell me to rest in the room again

i've been spending a lot of time in the room writing paper...

March 27th

woke up around 12pm

been watching One Piece + Glee with roomies

slept at 3 something

soh yee said that there's a place we'll go today

but didn't received much info

and even in the noon

she just went offline without any info given

so i join tim, whye kit, mengwei, zhengjing, ken and cong jie

to hike the mountain behind our campus

so we up up the hill around 2pm

looting around in the outdoor gym on the mountain

then some lookout point to the whole city we're living

on the way

we saw some "maehwa" (blossom?) hmmm

some famous flower for chinese new year

fyi... there's only old people hiking

we can hardly find people who is any younger than them

except us...

hiked all the way up and down again to another small town

it's really a small small town but kinda happening

it's around 3 and it's time for BRUNCH >.<

i know it's kinda late

but it's part of our plan

lunch today is duck BBQ

the taste is really omg

i never tried smoked duck bbq before

+ free pork in layers of fat

very tasty

since we're here

we're up to some museums + green house +scenery

it's a park actually but above the hill

the green house

it's already 1 month i didn't see plants these green already

from the park

we could see the Monument for the War

from the telescope

then it's time to leave before it's getting dark

but we went to have hi-tea on the way back

the stall is around the middle of the hill

just like a mamak stall in malaysia

so what do we eat here

korean veggie pancake

it's tasted very good

the smell of veggie is just all over

then with a lot of free foods >.<

5 red bean pancake

+ 2 bottle of makori (korean rice wine)

+ 2 plates of veggie salad

+ korean noodles for 8...

price?

only the price of 3 pancakes we ordered >.<

15,000 won (~RM45) and 2,140won (~RM6) each person

OMG... it only the price of 2.5 bottles of makori OKAY

then they still wanna give us makori to bring back after we paid

of course we didn't take it...

how can we do that

then the sunset view before we go back

we were rushing back to the lookout point for sunset

but the mountain blocked our sun >.<

very sad

so there's no dinner for today as

our stomach are fully filled with free foods XD

it's another tiring and exciting day

of course there's a lot of interesting topics we chatted LOL

FYI...

this is the 1st time i hike

i never try hiking in malaysia actually XD

since CJ and I don't have a lab to do our work tomorrow

now i wonder what should i do

my laptop screen is too small for me to do my work

cuz the emulator is much bigger than my screen >.<

(very sorry for a lot of typo, no proofreading is done)
