140629 Korea - Arrival

so before i start on my new job, i bought a very last minute ticket for a trip to korea. in fact i was contemplating if i should go in the later 2 weeks or the earlier 2 weeks, since i need to be back for a shingeki shoot in between. i decided on the former so i could start my job earlier (and recuperate my expenditure over the last few weeks). my ticket was only about $500. not so bad. there's a transfer in between to ho chih min, but i got to eat 2 plane meals anyway. ha!

i also bought a hair voucher to neaten myself up before i fly off. left slightly earlier for perming! look at my m- shaped hair!

in the evening, went to deliver some daiso stuff to jokumi for his wcs. the team skit looked pretty good~
i self-shot myself at his place since i didn't get to do it at the salon. hoho.

on sat, i spent my day packing and thank goodness my sis sent me to the airport. we shopped a bit (my last in bee cheng hiang souvenirs) and played the millionaire game. it looks like a massive set up but not all receipts could be scanned.

after i checked in, i went to roam T3 and discovered a free movie theatre.

it was really, a good place to sleep as people were snoring inside. or maybe the show was just too boring.

since i didn't have a lot of luggage i waited till everyone went in, then boarded so i didn't have to stand and queue. hoho. me with my yeowoo waiting~

the flight was on sat night and i landed around 10am in the morning on sunday. here's my 2 meals onboard~ i don't like the salad but the main meal was not so bad.

finally touched down and my dear came to pick me up. he seemed to have slimmed down much~!

we had breakfast at macdonald, before traveling down to yongin.

.. and my former room has been turned into a cat cafe.

well, staying next to a room of cats will be interesting~!

they are all fat and furry and really tame. and they seem to like humans. there's only 1 male cat, called Lucy. lol. that's the biggest and furriest.

the next biggest is the white-black one called Kaka. She likes to bite people's finger or grab them as a way of playing with you, but it can scratch and hurt as well.

The tabby grey one called Baek Ho (or white tiger), loves to lick people. The teeth is quite sharp so it hurts slightly sometimes, but it still feels nice *-*

The last one, sister of Baek Ho, is called Hwang Ryung (or Yellow Dragon), but 00 likes to call her Bbang Ryung (or Fat Dragon). the sisters like to lick each other and Hwang Ryung seems to like to avoid people touching her head unless she knows them well.

some videos i took which i also placed on instagram.
the strange thing about the cats is that they don't meow at all. instead they produce a low grunting sound which 00 says is their way of expressing happiness. hence, the room is strangely silent most of the time. 00's mom or the house butler also comes to clean the room once every 2 days or sometimes everyday, so the room always smell good.

We went to have a late lunch/early dinner at my favourite roe rice place. they've changed the udon soup/porridge to a cold soup which is still pretty nice but not something i'm used to. after that we had movies in our room, watching Real Steel, which was a pretty heartwarming movie *_*
