Thought about putting the luggage in the hotel in the airport but failed, not only waste my time but also money....

想偷機寄放行李結果失敗又浪費我很多時間

Despite the rented iPhone make things really convenient while I lost the charger immediately....:S

雖然機場可以租Iphone很屌,不過我好像馬上就把充電包弄不見了....囧

韓國的3G上網速度真的不錯耶!! 再配上Gmail & Skype真的挺方便的!!

或許這就是為什麼街上用iPhone的人比我想像中多的原因吧

Of course having a drink and chilling out with ALCers is ALWAYS fun but I missed the Korean BBQ due to the delays earlier :(

可惜因為太晚到錯過了吃三層肉的機會....不過跟大家一起去喝點小酒聊聊天還是挺開心的啦~!!

Almost got hit by a car on the street; exactly the feeling coming back to Asia from the States. :S

只是走在路上一直有差點被車撞到的感覺,難道我也變成初訪亞洲的美國人了!? :P

It's not only the place for drinking is hard to find in the weekend but the taxis as well.

周末晚上的江南不但喝酒的地方難找連計程車都很大牌....

Jake would be my kind host tonight allowing me to have my very first experience of the Korean heated floor!

Jake家挺不錯的,而會發熱的地板實在對打地鋪的人太溫暖了~~~~(淚)

We chatted until five in the morning as staying up late is definitely a MUST for ALCers! :P

看著畢業紀念冊上的妹一路聊天到五點:S 這邊女大也是18變~~~:P


====================

01/07

Had a BIG breakfast; a great thanks to Jake's mom!

超豪華早餐!!!

Went looking for my hostel, which is really hard to find either on the map or the internet alike; I totally can't understand why they block Korean IP...= =

超難找的hostel,而且在韓國境內上不了官網是哪招....:S

Originally I was thinking about ice-skating at the city hall square yet again gave up such thoughts due to the crowd, just like what happened in NYC.

原本要到市政府廣場去溜冰,但實在太多人而且感覺沒什麼特別,

I was attracted by the guard exchange at Changdeokgung palace and that's where we ended up spending the afternoon at.

The only trap is, however, the price of tea there......SUPER expensive!



於是被對面景德宮門口的衛兵交接給吸過去

昌德宮走一走,茶價也太貴了吧!!!

Walking toward Gyongbokkung palace and watch an exhibition of Sejong Daewang, the inventor of modern Korean.

往景福宮走順路看世宗大王展

We had some Korean rice cake first then my favorite seafood pancake with the traditional rice wine, which again made me drunk that I almost fell asleep when waiting for the metro.

吃了個紅豆年糕湯再配上海鮮煎餅與米酒....又醉了:S

到咖啡店聊天,一整個超想睡,差點在等捷運的時候站著就睡著了...

===================

01/08

The American girl who came back at five totally woke me up...anyways I can always go back to sleep..

早上五點才回來的美國女生.....該說是厲害嗎...= =? 總之回個email之後繼續睡

I LOVE it that the hostel provided free towers and shampoo and the SMART idea translating the menu of restaurants nearby but the spicy pork rice is simply an explosive to me that even water doesn't help.....

DSC00987.JPG

hostel有包含毛巾&洗髮精真的好貼心,幫忙附近店家翻譯菜單更是一絕,

洗好澡後到附近隨便吃了個辣豬肉飯..........在韓國人眼中的辣對我來說根本就是爆裂物....喝了超多水還是免不了跑廁所...,

The Starbucks cup of Seoul looks really nice!

DSC00988.JPG

星巴克的首爾杯真的不錯看耶!

I went to the traditional Korean houses today, absolutely worth visiting!

DSC00989.JPG DSC00994.JPG DSC00996.JPG DSC00997.JPG

韓國傳統房屋區也很不錯

Speaking of characteristic, this subway station definitely deserves a note!

Compared with these, shopping at Myeongdong area didn't bring me that much fun.

DSC00998.JPG DSC01000.JPG DSC01001.JPG DSC01002.JPG

不過今天最驚豔的就是這個地鐵站,相當的有FU

明洞Shopping就很苦手了...並沒有特別便宜而且我不會韓文也不會日文阿~~~(爆) 好險還有大泡芙可以吃 :)

Mina, a Korean exchange student I met back in SC had a dinner date with me tonight; long time no see and lots of to catch up!

DSC01010.JPG DSC01011.JPG DSC01012.JPG DSC01013.JPG

晚上跟好久不見的Mina吃飯,一邊上班一邊等在當兵的男友,最後還請我吃晚餐.....感動>\\\<,

Fell asleep immediately after arriving back at the hostel.

不過感覺時差還是沒有調好,一回到hostel又馬上睡著了,連電腦都沒開!

===================

1/9

Realized it's not that hard to reach a ski trip resort as some are even reachable via subway; I'll definitely come back for the snow next time!

發現其實要去滑雪沒這麼難,甚至還有坐捷運也能到的!! 下次絕對不會再錯過了!!

The bus to SNU is still crowded even though it's winter break now.

Had the famous Korean dish "Bibimbap" and went to the tea house to chill with my ALC friends; quite a story Thomas!

DSC01015.JPG DSC01016.JPG DSC01017.JPG DSC01019.JPG

往SNU的Bus還是一樣的擠,中午吃了看起來挺高級的石鍋拌飯,接下來到神奇的茶室喝茶,要叫Thomas大哥!!

Wrote postcards back at Jake's place until the evening.

Originally Youngpyo planned to go to a Hong Kong style restaurant but it's not open today so I can finally enjoy the Korean BBQ I've always been looking for!

I did have some drink with them but luckily I didn't get too drunk today, still being able to notice how Sujeong is and the fact I'm being the youngest among all!

But Minchan drives a BMW, that is more than anything. :P

DSC01021.JPG DSC01023.JPG DSC01027.JPG DSC01028.JPG

回到Jake的家寫寫明信片聊聊天,晚上原本要吃的港菜沒開那就讓我大吃三層肉吧!!

有喝Youngpyo的精心特調好險沒有太醉,到咖啡店繼續聊聊天,

Sujeong好漂亮,然後發現其實我是所有人裡面最小的.....

Minchan的BMW......厲害!!

The hostel was SUPER nice to allow me spend a night on the couch for free as I've used up the Korean dollars I exchanged...

原本已經打算要花錢消災或是滾出去了結果居然獲得免費在沙發上睡一夜,這家hostel實在太甘心啦~~~~


======================

1/10

Woke up in the morning and just caught the bus to the airport; super lucky!

早上出門剛好趕上巴士,超幸運!!

Despite being a little bit more expensive, T-money can be used even on the airport bus is pretty good.

雖然會比較貴,不過連去機場的巴士都可以刷T-money真的挺方便的

Eventually I had to exchange more Korean dollars for the charger I lost; hope I can come here or go to Europe again so I can use the one I bought this time.

想拿自己路邊買的雜牌充電器蒙混戰術完全失敗,害我還得再去換韓元....

不過至少他開的價錢比在外面買一個原廠充電器便宜了啦.....只希望能盡快再到韓國/歐洲玩嚕@@

Rearrange my carry on and checked begs, got a cup of Starbucks for free thanks to the cup I bought, sent out the postcards and most importantly, make some shopping at the tax-free stores to spend the remaining Korean dollars.

One good thing about getting on at the last call is that they won't check your luggage at all.

Then I got exactly the same beef issue again for the meal in the sky; why they have beef only!?

DSC01031.JPG DSC01032.JPG DSC01035.JPG DSC01038.JPG

在機場拿了四公斤的維骨力出來背再買了首爾杯(話說還有機場杯&釜山杯都不錯漂亮....星巴克真的很厲害....),

寄了明信片後通關再用剛剛獲得的飲料卷買杯抹茶星冰樂還順便買了媽媽要的辣椒粉,

最後時刻再登機的好處就是登機行李完全不會被檢查 :P 只是應該要先提醒他們我不吃牛....:(

Home home sweet home!

The three-semester American life had officially come to an end!

三個學期的美國留學生活,結束
