Sweet 22 in Korea

Still have 1 and 1/2 hour b4 my special day ends... A big shout out to myself!


Happy Birthday, Charis! Hope ur bday wishes will come true =)


Okok, enuf of this silliness! Hahahaha... Woke up yesterday night and found the following item on my table

*Kit Kat, Red Velvet, 

Cheese and Oreo from

Nampo*

A big THANK YOU to Aliza; who went all the way to Nampo-dong to get me birthday cupcakes! Me loves you... and also Yan Yee and Sam for chipping in, hehehehe.... Then at 12 am came back from Yan Yee's room to eat my 1st birthday cupcake; in hope that Yan Yee will sing me Birthday song... but then, Yan Yee told me to just go to Aliza's room... of course, was like "HUH?"


Followed her, but the room was dark... tada!!! Aliza holding choco-fudge cakes (small ones) with Pepero; acting as candles, suddenly Sopheak jumps out of nowhere and Subin too... together with "Happy Birthday"! While I was worried that this will wake her other roommate but she seem to be MIA-ying... Oh, did I mentioned that I walk to Aliza's room with my cupcake and candle....


Then they sang me Birthday song and lighted my candle =)

*My 1st birthday cupcake*

Then during the day I went to visit Women's Organisation in Busan... 

*Display of the pregnancy process*

*This is a replica of the women's 

womb. So wat ur seeing is the vagina*

*Entering the "vagina" one by one. And

its very soft and warm 

and you can hear heart beats*

*This is how the womb looked like*

*After that, we were given these different weigh pregnant wear

and its really heavy!* 

*This is about 2-3 kg, so quite light*

*Guys should really try this, so you'll know

how heavy you were, when in ur mummy's womb*

*Learning how to carry a newborn*

* Learning about the female reproductive organ*

*The parts and functions*

*Then also the penis... this apparently can be use, as in they will

fill in a semen look-alike

fluid and show you, how semen comes

out*

*How to wear condom; for women*

*This is for guys*

The volunteers also explained how the penis enlarged and advised guys and girls to masturbate properly and safely; which is quite interesting as, in Malaysia, we are not taught or rather given such information. Malaysia should learn this approach to sex education cuz to me you can't stop people from masturbating and having sex instead teach them the proper way of doing it; this would be a better bet than telling them its sinful to have sex before marriage. So not PRACTICAL!!! Then there is also a live tele-cast of "How to wear a condom; for male" using real condom and fake penis... Hahahahah.... Females were also taught to use home pregnancy test and how to read the results. 

I find this actually quite relevant for today; since it's my birthday... I automatically thought of my mum... the pain that she had to go thru just to bring me to this world... though I don't say it verbally, but I do love you... I don't only love Mama (Grandma)... both are important to me... and sorry for all the pain that I've put you thru for the pass 22 years.

okok, enuf of being emo.... hehehehhe

After that, we went to Busan City Hall and went to the City Council Assemble room/hall. This is very new as not just anyone can get into the Assemble hall but rather you have to apply for a seat way before the meetings begin and also maybe only 10-15% of the Korean population have been in this hall... so this is really interesting and special as foreigners are given such privilege. 

*This is the layout of Busan*

*The City Council Assembly hall*

Later on, went to have dinner; buffet style... so ate lots of sashimi and also sushi... hehehhe, miss fish so so much! So me stomach is very happy and got Broccoli as well, so I ATE lots of it =) Then, went to convenient store to buy me self a birthday present 

*My one and only TRUE LOVE... 

Ferraro Rocher*

After I took bath; while drying my hair... my roommates came out from the sleeping quarter with a cheesecake from Paris Baguette and sang me an English Birthday song... they both so CUTE, don't really know the words but still put an effort to sing me a Birthday song.... 너무감사합니다, 하경 은진 !!! 

*Phone got no more memory space

and hence the 

Polaroid picture*

P/S: Thank you everyone for wishing me on Facebook, Twitter and Kakao! Charis love you guys too!

Titanic 3D

After 13 years, I still find Titanic amazing! Been watching it over and over and over again on TV, CD, DVD, Online... but I was never once bored and still cry to the touching scenes! Went to watch Titanic 3D on Sunday; 8/04 and I'm keeping this as memory.

*타이타닉; Titanic. Cost about 13 000 won, which is

RM 39.*

I know that transforming 2D into 3D would not be good, but certain scenes portrayed in 3D was really good! 3D enhanced the effects of certain scenes like... 

* I felt I was flying together... and plus the cinema 

was quite air-ry too..*

*The eyes... the way he looked at Rose

and the concentration. One can't help but stare into his 

eyes and go "Awe... those eyes!"*

*This felt real to me; more so when Jack and Rose was

standing behind the ship's railing*

*This scene!!! My tears started to flow like water pipe. I like the fact that he knows that

he will not be able to survive but yet still asked Rose to not give up

no matter what happen. Telling her that she is gonna

seeing her grandchildren growing up and when she is really old, she will

die warm in her bed while asleep. This really got me; was trying real hard not to

cry out loud and with the theme song. Oh gosh!*

*This is the scene I love best! To me its a happy ending, though til death

they can only meet but still it was beautiful 

to me!*

Overall, I'm glad I watched this in the cinema. The 3D effect have really intensified the emotions; as it did made me cry even harder and the emotions that was felt was still there after I left the cinema. I was discussion certain scenes with my friend and my tears just came back while waiting for the subway train. And just yesterday, my friend tagged me in the Titanic theme song; My Heart Will Go On (instrumental), my tears automatically flowed... I think even after 10 years or 20 years or even 50 years down the road, I will still cry and not get bored with the story-line; as I think only in movies that guys are willing to let go of the one they truly love in hope that the girl will continue living her life to the fullest -> what I like about Jack; practical and realistic. 

진해: Cherry Blossom Festival

Finally spring is here!!! Got up early and felt so excited yesterday!Went down to Seobu Bus Terminal in Sasang and.... 

We saw that super long queue... Not for purchasing ticket but rather its the departure line for Jinhae; shaped like a coil! We waited for like an hour and though Spring is here but... the weather somehow still felt like winter; the cold wind. Thus, we got to Jinhae at about 12.30 p.m., since the journey from Busan to Jinhae takes about an hour; thank goodness there wasn't any traffic!

Once we reached there, we bought return tickets on the spot so that later we will not be caught in a line. Then we went to the eating place. 

We saw traditional beggars; people who dressed up as one. They sang and danced; bout what, I don't know. Then saw this amazing site...

*That long trail of stairs and 

also the cable car track. Thus we decided to

walk up and the view was good!

Half way climbing up. Yup, stopping to take a pic

while catching my breathe as I have 

bad stamina*

*The park on top*

*The beautiful scenery! I thought that Sakura/ Cherry Blossom

will have the pick-ish colour; like I see on photos and

TV but in reality,

it's actually white! I was rather disappointed =(*

*The end of the trail*

Then we proceeded to the Stadium for the Military Band show... and it was quite disappointing as I thought that the band will have a march in. Instead they just went on the stage and sat there... thus no cute guys to see; no eye-candy =(

*The military band were playing some classical piece

and also some famous TV shows; Poisedon... We left half-way 

cuz we were bored*

Then went to the Jinhae Marine Military Camp!!! Though it was a long walk but for me its worth it plus it's good exercise and the weather was nice! 

*Facilities in the camp*

*On the way to see Turtle Ship designed 

by Admiral Yi*

*The famous Turtle Ship*

And this is how the inside looked like...

*Pics with the marines*

Then also visited the Marine's Museum

*On the way out, you can leave your signature 

and according to my friend; the marine will report to Admiral Yi of your 

attendance* 

*Also bought a shirt for myself;

only cost 12 000 won*

Then... the fun part!!!

*Trying on Marine uniform!!!Its available for everyone

just pass them ur ID card*

Next destination... No idea what's this place called but its very famous during Cherry Blossom Festival as it have amazing scenery!!! Couples all wanna take pictures here... so be alert and fast to get a spot!!!

Oh, by the way... Plan your time properly when your going for this festival cuz... I'm pretty sure you don't want to end up like us 

We waited of about 2 hrs in the freezing cold weather!!! And how relieved were we when we sat down on our seat in the bus...
