annyong haseyo! (greeting in korean language) haha it was a fun and different experience for me and my family.. coz it was the first time our family travelling tog to a further away place.. away from the usual msia trips:) On the 9th of June, around 8 pm, 4 excited beings got ready and set off with 2 luggages to Terminal 1:)

dear sending us off before we flew at 11pm:)



the first thing in the itinery after touching down at Korea was the visit to the Inspaworld where we can enjoy the korean hot spring!! this was what me and my sis were looking forward to the whole time! --without noeing tt we werent supposed to wear anything, even swimming costume.. with a long hesitation and discussion with our fellow tour grpmate gals, we decided to give try it a try since we have taken e plane all e way here..after the docter fish leg spa which was practically a leg tickling session when everyone had a good time laughing off their heads while the doctor fish were busy biting off out our dead skin.. hahaa.. well being the first time trying out hot spring, it was so comfortable n refreshing tt we din wanna stop! when we left we were so happy we tried it.. no regrets.. but it was a pity my mum din!

our first lunch in Korea after hotspring --our fav Korean Ginseng Chicken! this is a must try:)






us with the bottles of ginseng lining the whole ginseng chicken eatery..



us along the Cheongyecheon stream, a man-made stream in Seoul where a lot of people like to take long strolls and spend time with their loved ones..i find it a bit similar to our boat quay n clarke quay..haaha

daddy and mummy! cheers!

us with the ctc representative on the extreme left (marcus), korean tourguide (michelle) and super nice and hardworking photographer cum tourguide's assistant ( ah june)

our dear tourgrp mate wanna take photo with our 32cm strawberry n green tea ice cream:) haha..

it was onli 1000 won (equivalent to 1.3 sgd).. so cheap and nice!

shot with the statues after shopping at nandaemun, one of the shopping streets in Seoul..

here comes our first dinner of the trip.. steamboat with lots lots of vege and mushroom n e special kimchi dumpling.. coz its the first dae , our dae ended earlier with the tourguide bringing us back to the hotel and me continuing to buy more faceshop at the coex mall beside the hotel:)

next dae started with trip to nami island! remember winter sonata? haha quite a standard film site to be included in a korea tour package rite? haha .. but i was still excited abt going there:) to see the nice nice treess.. though they will look different from that in the show coz it was filmed during autumn and winter:( haha

cable car ride "thrilling" but its jus super worth it to enjoy the breathtaking view of the scenery while having a sip of nice coffee n tea!!~~

after which, we proceeded to try out the mini tractor-like vehicle called the ATV (all Terrain Vehicle)... can be exciting and dangerous with all the bumps along the path making me freak out at some moments..haha

discovering a new singapore..

wow..it has been ages since i last logged into blogger! haha.. well suddenly have the urge to update my poor blog..and post some photos of a new part of singapore that everyone shld take the opportunity to explore:)

perhaps u have heard of the newly built southern ridges in singapore..or even been there before le.. haha well if u havent been there.. these ridges are new spots for u to get good views of the city, harbour and southern islands and i recommend visiting in the night.. coz at night, its not so hot and the view of the lights in the city is simply beautiful!!

At least one month ago, we took e train to harbourfront and took bus 409 from harbourfront interchange up to Mount Faber. After which , we alighted at the stop in front of Jewel Box.. and walked along a pavement leading to the different ridges.. we chose to walk to henderson waves first and along the way, dear dear took some photos:)










here we are!! Henderson waves...the highest pedestrian bridge in spore..there were so many people on the bridge that i was wondering if the bridge is strong enuff to support ..haha.. standing on it makes me wonder how beautiful the view of the brightly lited bridge residents who are living nearby can have..







next up is the elevated walkway..amazed by how modern a pathway can be through the forest..


haha another masterpiece by dear:)






our last destination of the trail is the alexandra arch.. another bridge with lights.. but this time the lights changes colours!!











e nice dae ended with supper at holland village:)

thanks dear for giving my birthday another meaning:)this is the second time we spending our anniversary together~~ this time round we went to mount faber Jewel Box.. its a place with good ambience.. a place totally unblocked where you can just immerse in the spectacular view of waters with the ships.. lightings from jurong island and sentosa.. together with the streams of cable cars..the breeze just adds on to the beautiful atmosphere.. the atmosphere is somewhat similar to that at the hilltop near Jurong Birdpark(Hilltop restaurant) where you can get a view of a broad landscape as well..

wow it has been ages since i am back to my dear blog.. well it is the last 3 weeks to the start of the work..about one more month to slack..i finally cleared my wardrobe to put in new working clothes which have lying around for a number of daes or weeks le.. haha..sometimes i am amazed at how me and my sis can squeeze all our clothes into such a small wardrobe..always have the headache when it comes to squeezing in new clothes coz i am always lazy to clear old clothes.. the frustrating thing is after u cleared quite a number of old clothes u realise the wardrobe is sill full of clothes.. coz the portion cleared is still small as compared to the total amount inside.. hahaa.. do u all have the same problem?

i started off clearing the top part as shown below...haha..








and messed up our beds with all the bottoms which i usually put at the top of my wardrobe which u saw just now.. i cant imagine me and my sis actually neva wear more than 50% of the bottoms up there.. some of them neva wear before and i am thinking of throwing or giving them away le.. best..shldnt have bought a lot of things on impulse..haha..


my wardrobe after clearing a pile of clothes and putting in my new clothes..see! the space is so limited right..not much difference after clearing as to the amount except that it is a bit neater now.. haha.. pple who noe me well will noe i always keep a lot of unwanted stuff..sae i can be garang guni.. ok i admit i dont really like to throw things and thats e reason why my room is full of rubbish!!! haha..

hoping for the day when i have enuff money to "revamp" my entire room and get a new bigger wardrobe.. so at least our poor wardrobe does not have to house 2 pple's clothes..
