I haven't been blogging for a while...
Firstly due to the lack of pictures, lots of pictures are with my friends who promised to send me ..but I'm still waiting.
Secondly, I'm getting a little busy with schoolwork and stuff. Ya I know that I'm an exchange student and my academic time should be spent more productively like walking around the streets of Sinchon. I also feel a sense of moral obligation towards my project mates, hurhur, so I cannot slack too much and be more enthu.

Some random shots. And even more random comments.

The cars in Korea are the kings on the road, unlike Singapore where pedestrians are the kings. Here they don't give a damn if you are crossing a pedestrian crossing. They will still bulldoze you to death and not bat an eye as long as you are in their way. I wish the automatic parking system will transfer these cars to hell man. B18 : Hell.

My HK friend finally unraveled the mystery behind 'Why people always die in car accidents in k-dramas'. The answer lies in their wonderful driving.

If you get knock down in Seoul, blame it on ur carma.

Some wasted girl. Poor girl.
Looks fucking drunk. Or maybe both, I wouldn't know.

Koreans drink so much. Maybe too much.
Its amazing how much soju they consume in their lifetime.
Perhaps more than the soft drinks that I consume in my entire lifetime.
Don't be surprised but their sojus are actually much cheaper than their soft drinks.

Some people shooting something in the school campus. I'm clueless as to who the girl is. Probably just some small scale school production. Just for info, Yonsei campus was the place where they shot "My Sassy Girl" and "Beautiful Days".

Some grapes that I bought from Grand Mart. The grapes here taste like wine.
To eat them in Korean style, you've got to nibble off top the grape, suck out the grape pulp (yes they come off smoothly in one whole chunk) and you spit out the seeds and dispose the grapeskin. They are so intoxicating.
Trust me, after tasting these grapes, grapes will never taste the same again.

Other fruits found in the supermarket taste like crap and are damn expensive.
I paid 5,480 won for 6 apples. Thats like 9 dollars for 6 small apples.
CCB. I apologise for my outburst. But really Fuck man. That is daylight robbery.
But no apple how to keep the doctor away?

My stockpile of instant ramyun, chachangmyun.
I got an assortment so that I can savour all the different flavours during my stay here.
Yea, I know its unhealthy but I've got to watch my budget because I have been spending too much on food and icecream. hehe.

On the right is some microwave food (its supposed to be octopus with rice, but it tastes so SFI (army food) that I am not going to try it again)

Ok..back to my readings~annyeong!
