I saw this funny thing while i was waiting for bus to Chonnam, this is how it works.
1) Pay
2) Hop into it
3) Sit tight
4) It will swing like the Pirate Ship in Sunway Lagoon . ..
Interesting ?? Usually for kids la .. ..

I went to the 2nd Gwangju Together Day with Anne (my labmate), Ummi, Melissa and Nadiah. The Together Day was organised with the purpose of letting migrant workers, families and international students to ''get together''. The event was all right, mostly was art paintings activities. We did not stay for the talent show and performances... we just participated in the paintings.

Shopping @ Downtown Gwangju

Oh i love Gwangju... shopping shopping shopping. There are so many things to see and buy, and most importantly it's not expensive, some even cheap !



We're walking towards the underground market at the subway.
This is the underground market. It's something like Sungei Wang but with more choices and cheaper. The things that they sell from shop to shop are not similar, unlike the usual phenomena in KL where you can find the same thing in a few different shops.
This is the street in downtown where trendy chicks can be spotted and plenty of things to buy.

In Malaysia, Korean cosmetic brands that are commonly found are Skin Food, The Face Shop and Missha. Here, there are so many brands that can be found in one street alone. It's very competitive until they have to do promotion and announcements at their entrance.

Lunch time.


Stuffs that i've bought today.

This T-shirt is 4,900 won (RM 13.90) only ! The fabric is nice and the cutting is good. This leggings are RM 11 ( 3,900 won)
This pair of lovely earrings only cost RM 14 (5,000 won)


Here, they like to wear gladiator hells.

Gyeongju Trip

On 29th May 2009, we went to Gyeongju. There were two places that we had visited, the first one was the UNESCO world heritage Bulguksa (temple) and the second one was the Shilla Millennium Park.

It took us 4 hours to get to Gyeongju by bus, it was a long journey but it's definitely worth the time. The trip was great and everyone enjoyed.

Before we departed, everyone was given a packet of toast for breakfast, this is no ordinary toast, it is so so tasty, the layers consist of cheese, egg and ham. I like the packaging.

This is Gyeongju, intensive agricultural activities were seen along the way to Gyeongju.

The UNESCO World Heritage site, Bulguksa.


Bulguksa was packed with visitors. It is a very famous tourists spot.
Guan Yin Temple

Me and roommate Bombay from Thailand.
Buddha Temple

This is the Sukgatap, it represents the typical stone pagoda style. Its position derived from the presence of Buddhist preaching.


The stones on the ground are all flat in shape, people stack stones here as some form of wishing i think.
Shilla Millennium Park (http://www.smpark.co.kr/eng/main_eng.asp)


Find me.

You can express your creativity there, there are plenty like paper art, glass art, clay art etc.

At the market, i saw this, they sell garlic in an entire plant form.
But back in Malaysia it's garlic only.
