Sinchon Hair Salon

I'm now sitting in a hair salon in Sinchon 신춘 having a hair perm (setting) done for 45,000원. I hope I'll look fine and not like an ajumma! Goodness -_- worried now, but it's cool having my hair done in Korea. An interesting experience because I get to use the computer and surf the net while my hair's being done. Today was the 1st day of lessons at the Korean Language Institute.

I should be getting my internet cable tonight so I'll be able to upload the photos from my Jeju and Busan trip. I miss Busan for the weather. The weather in Seoul is just bad.  It's either rainy or too hot. As told by our teacher 홍선생님, today's the 1st day of the 장마철.

Day 2: 23 June 2009, Tuesday

Ocean Grand Hotel

Day 1: 22 June 2009, Monday

My night seemed really long. 6 hours seemed like forever. Just after the plane took off, I fell asleep. But one hour later, I was up and awake and I just couldn’t sleep even though I was dead tired. I watched Confessions of a Shopaholic and managed to get a little sleep, but I kept waking up at every x:22am. Maybe I couldn’t sleep because I was thinking about my family, about how much I’ll miss them since I’ve never been apart from them for such a long period before.

I reached Incheon International Airport at around 7.20am and after clearing the customs and collecting my HEAVY luggage, I met Pauline, Phyllis and Jeannie at Starbucks before we took the AREX to Gimpo Airport to deposit our luggages.

With love from Jeju-do 제주도

I'm alive, in Jeju-do 제주도 and I'm great :)

In just 3 days, I have taken 1300+ photos and I'm doing my best to prepare the posts.

Here's a sneak preview of what's to come:

I've got to sleep now. 5 hours later, it'll be time to wake up and prepare to leave 제주도 for Busan 부산.

Pre-departure Blues

What a total disappointment: no more beetle cabriolet because we exceed the legal capacity.

But it's alright.

I'll go back to Jeju again one day: BMW convertible + Shangri-la Yacht + Shilla Hotel.

Sad stuff aside, I'm leaving soon and I haven't packed.

Are you counting down with me? :p
