leaving in less than 24 hrs. still have some last min stuff to throw in, and i'm set!

will be chronicling my journeys in seoul @ www.seoulintransit.blogspot.com

will move back once i'm back! :)

till then....

latest weather update. :)

leaving soon but i've not finished packing!!! can u believe it? shucks. i think pictures from the few recent gatherings will have to wait. n yvonne, i miss u too!!! must save me something nice from europe kk? i'll get u something nice from korea. or u can come over and visit. :D

hillsong united was great just now! n i happened to meet dyana in the toilet! i seem to be bumping into her everywhere these days! that day was at suntec, after i collected my passport. n now, today @ the hillsong concert! i was just talking to her in the afternoon & telling her that i'll probably see her next in the HK airport. hahaha. such a coincidence!!

dinner tomorrow with the nus ppl & gotta get down to hardcore packing after that! otherwise...........

my teacher bought a cake and we had a mini farewell party for me in class! was so touched la... hehe. i think this is the most friendly teacher i've ever had. seriously. although we had our complains at first, it all worked out fine in the end. she's getting better as the lessons go by. perhaps we got used to her? but yes. i'll miss her. and my whole class too.


A1 class


the cake!

so much to do! i only hope that i can remember every single thing!

and and and! i must blog abt this! really all glory to God. Ps Prince was preaching abt miracle seed sunday 2 weeks ago, where we sowed into the building of the new church. we have had a few testimonies, where the ppl testified abt how their seed was multiplied many times over just a few days after they sowed into the building. i must confess, i was a teeny weeny bit skeptical as i couldn't really see how God was going to multiply my seed. but guess what. the miracle happened yesterday. my aunt won some $$ and she gave me some. i'm not going to disclose the amt, but my seed was multiplied by more than 50 times! just like what Ps Prince said, its a worthy investment into the kingdom of God. even better than stocks & shares! for which investment can bring you such a return in a short span of 2 weeks?? its really amazing! n now, i have even more to sow back into the building again! God is just so awesome. n i have more $$ for my trip too. :D :D :D

i think my blog's fast becoming a 'weather update' blog. hahah.

and i just got wind of the most amazing news. i certainly hope its true. hehehe. esther! we can go be 스터커s! hahaa.

so much vocab to learn for 피동 & 사동!!!!!! n i still need to go memorise useful vocab related to travel/housing etc just in case it comes in handy!

4 more days!!! ;)

see what i mean about erratic weather?? i'm trying not to weigh my luggage down with my jackets/sweaters, but i'm scared that i'll be cold too.... sigh.

and esther: 그만 보기 해. 당신은 나보다 돈이 많아. 지금 조건이 비해... 알아지? :) 그리고, 저는 SBS인기가요를 보겠어. 하하하. 6월에 1주말를 오면 우리 같이 가요! 어떼? 지난 번에 말해잖아. 제 방에서 묵어 도 돼.... ㅋㅋㅋ.

looking forward to the lovely cool weather over there. ;) though how accurate it is, i do not know. it seems to be changing all the time.

7 more days!!!!

에스터언니에게: 슬픈하지마세요. 당신 도 서울에 올 수 있어요. 그리고 스터거의 꿈은 완성해 도 돼요. ㅋㅋㅋ. 좋은 추천이 안 그래요?? :)하하.

oh gosh.. my trip to the embassy today was super duper traumatic.

it began with AnYouAs not wanting to give me the letter on the spot cause the person in charge was away or something. Ok fine. so i thought i'ld just try my luck n head down to the embassy n see what they say. And it was another 'adventure' there. the guy couldn't express himself properly & everything he said sounded like he memorised it from their 'Top 10 FAQs'! Not to mention the fact that speaking to him was almost like speaking to a robot. First, he said that I don't need a visa. Then after I asked if its ok not to have one since i'm going to travel first before studying did he say that I need a visa. So basically, he kept contradicting himself. Plus, the part about the letter from the school was the best.

Guy: I need a letter from your school to prove your attendance.

Me: Huh? Ok.. But i've already graduated. Do I still need a letter from them?

Guy: Oh, then what are you doing now?

Me: Nothing.

Guy: Then it is very complicated. I think you cannot apply for a visa.

Me: HUH?!!?!?!?!? But I just graduated this semester! You mean I cannot apply for a visa like that?

Guy: Yes.


oh man... so i gave up talking to him & talked to this other lady who was much nicer and who could express herself better. Sooo. i tried calling AnYouAs again to see if i can get the letter cause its v v urgent! Finally managed to talk to the 'higher-ups' n got my letter successfully. Cabbed back to the embassy again & finally got everything sorted out. Phew.... that and loads of prayer helped!!

so, all i've to do is to pack my bags & i'm set!

went to send JT & Andrea off at the airport before meeting esther for dinner. ;) i'll see them in jeju!



n after dinner with esther, i happened to see man tse & cheryl going off to korea together for their grad trip. seems like everyone's going to korea!! hur hur. hopefully the triumvirate can reunite in dae han min gook! ;)

counting down to the days i leave.. though i''m not really prepared yet. sighhh...

finally met up with the girls just now to plan for our korea trip. :D t'was quite fun. n we took like 3 hrs just to plan for Jeju alone!! gosh. i'm so looking forward to it. hehe. the exchange rate seems to be v gd! maybe i'll head down to mustafa soon. or i should just follow what yvonne told me. to change it in batches so that i'll get a gain on the exchange rate. that's so 306! haha. yvonne's having fun in UK la. but she said that she didn't get to go to Hillsong London cause they got lost or something. :P nvm la. i'm sure that there will be a next time! :D

i've got so much to settle before leaving! my visa's still not done, i've gotta pack & send out all my spree stuff, do revision for korean etc etc etc! 2 more weeks left... i hope its enough. i dunno what to pack.. i need help here......... like seriously. i've only got as far as packing my pillow & bedsheets. hah.

city plaza tomorrow!! yay!

had a very fun time online with freda just now. hehe. i must say that we make good shopping partners. :P now, time to post pictures of my stash. :P hehe.

and as the seconds tick by.......

it brings me so much closer to my departure to the land of kimchi. loads to settle before i leave & i haven't even finished 50% of them! making sure that i can get my visa on time is the most pressing problem on my mind right now. i'm really cutting it close, but i do hope that i can get it before the 26th. packing is another issue. how much & what to bring is giving me a headache. 2 luggages? contact lens solution? pants? jeans? shorts? URGH. i guess this explains why my luggage is always left unpacked for a minimum of 1 month after i'm back from a holiday. and there's the adaptor problem as well. i wonder if i can just buy 1 adaptor, plug it into the socket & connect an extension cable to it so that i don't have to buy 5 adaptors for each power point. if anyone knows of a better method, do share! i've only managed to pack bedsheets & my pillow in. i guess i'll only be able to dump in my clothes nearer to the 26th. i still need to wear them out! unless i hibernate at home, which is not gonna happen.

and now.. pictures from thurs's gathering! the bulk of it is with JT though..


me & WT


i like this picture! JP looks funny here. wahahahhaa. :D

more will be up as soon as JT sends them over. ;)

한 사람 - 체연

아침 햇살에 내가 처음 눈을 떴을 때
나를 반겨 주는 얼굴이 그대 이길 바래
짙은 어둠 속에서 내가 힘들어 할 때
나의 어깰 감싸 줄 사람 그대 이길 바래
사랑해 오직 단 한 사람
나의 전부를 다 주고픈 사람
항상 그대 곁에서 난 꿈을 꾸고 싶어요
내 모든 걸 다 받쳐서 그댈 사랑하며
항상 그대 안에서 난 편히 쉬고 싶어요
그대 나와 가는 길이 행복할 수 있게

벽에 걸린 사진이 빛이 바랄 때까지
내 곁에 있는 단 한 사람 그대 이길 바래
깊은 절망 속에도 항상 내 곁에 서서
나의 손을 잡아줄 사람 그대 이길 바래
사랑해 오직 단 한 사람
나의 전부를 다 주고픈 사람

항상 그대 곁에서 난 꿈을 꾸고 싶어요
내 모든 걸 다 받쳐서 그댈 사랑하며
항상 그대 안에서 난 편히 쉬고 싶어요
그대 나와 가는 길이 행복할 수 있게


때로는 슬픈 일이
그대와 날 힘들게도 하겠죠
하지만 변함없는
우리 사랑으로 지켜나가요

항상 그대 곁에서 난 꿈을 꾸고 싶어요
내 모든 걸 다 받쳐서 그댈 사랑하며
항상 그대 안에서 난 편히 쉬고 싶어요
그대 나와 가는 길이 행복할 수 있게

i LOVE the triumvirate!!!

thank God for friends like these. :)

사랑해요! :)

went out with yvonne today for lovely cheap sushi @ the cathay. but horror of horrors, i discovered that my wallet wasn't in my bag. my 1st thought was " did someone take it out from my bag when i wasn't noticing? " and this is all thanks to my mum, who keeps reminding me to zip up my bag 'cause ppl can just take stuff out'. oh yes, that's a bad habit of mine. i hate zipping up my bags. makes it so much harder to reach for my stuff when i need it in a hurry. called my bro & found out that my wallet was sitting on my table @ home. thank God. but i must say, going out without my wallet's a torture! all the things that i can see & touch but can't buy! not even the simplest & most basic necessity. FOOD. but at least i had my ez-link card with me so that i could get home. hah.

met yvonne when i was walking thru the link with yvonne. we haven't started planning for our trip yet which is really bad. yvonne hasn't even bought her luggage yet! i seriously don't know how much to pack & what to bring over! i think getting there should be no problem, but the return trip will probably be a bit of a hassle. time to find some nice & strong oppas to help me. ;)

and speaking of oppas, JT's going out in full force to try to snag one in the 3 weeks that she's gonna be there. n she even came up with the idea of carrying JP's photo around. potential matchmaker i say. though i dunno what will JP say about that! hehe.

i <3 Andy's new song. he & Solbi are just so cute on We Got Married(우리 결혼했어요). go watch it if you haven't already done so. ;)

그냥...

시간이 아주 빨리 지나가다. 더 24일은 제가 비행기로 한국에 가겠어요. 기분이 흥분하지만 겁이 많고 걱정 도 있어요. 만약 무슨 문제가 있어요? 어떻게 하죠? 아마 저는 걱정이 많이 있어서 좀 불편해요. 그리고 이 3달 동안 공부를 통해서 한국어 얘기가 잘 하고 싶어요. 그게 제 꿈이에요. ;) 제 쓰기가 아직 도 서툴러요.. 기분 이/가, 을/를 도 문제가 있어요! 이게 많이 안돼요! 그래서 저는 이젠 문법을 다시 복습해요. 한국에 가기 전에 진보하고 싶어요. :)
