Korea was awesome. It's just different from Singapore, good and bad. The food was delish, filling but not overbearing. The weather was still cold, windy, but it didn't rain until the last day when we were leaving on the night flight. The trip was leisurely, plenty of time to absorb just being in a foreign land. Even tho we were impaired by the language barrier, we made up for it with action. We visited quite a few places; myeungdong, DDM, Everland, CGG palace, Sinchon. Sinchon was epic, coz I got separated from the group and ended up shopping alone. We were in Ewha station, in one of the shops, and I came out after my purchase and I didn't see anyone around. I thot they had gone on to the other shops in the station, but after an hour of at least 2 rounds through the shops, I finally realised that they had left. I did think of staying there, but getting all the way there and wasting my time waiting for them was such an unappealing thought. So I decided to go out and try to find them along the way.

The funny thing was, when I left the station, they came back for me.
So while I was lost, they were shopping. While I was shopping/looking out for them, they were searching for the lost kid.

Oh, I almost forgot the fact that I didn't bring my phone. So no whatsapp, no roaming, no contact.

Anyway I finished my shopping and went back to the hostel, still alone, and then I could whatsapp one of them to say that I was safely back. ST was like 'OMG THANK GOD YOU'RE SAFE.' :')

Yeah, and I spent a lot of moolah. ><


 I don't feel peaceful at all nowadays. There's too much turmoil in my head, in my heart. Seeing my grandad in the home was sad. I don't want him to live in that kind of environment: unfeeling. Seeing my family constantly unhappy with one another. I don't want a house of strangers. Seeing me put myself out there, afraid of the outcome yet unwilling to be a passive participant. I don't want to be alone.

Yet amongst everything, we are almost always on our own. Up, Up and Away
