I know, I should have blogged the moment I reached Singapore, but I was so tired and like, I am still schooling. So spare me okay!
Anyways, let's stop talking, and let's start! I went to Korea with Cheryl, Eliza & Cordell btw!
DAY 1
Okays, so we met up at Changi Airport Terminal 3 and we were in departure already~ So, we were just waiting for our flight number to be called so that we can go in the plane and set off for Korea~

So after this, we went into the plane and we took our seats! We were seated in the middle. Formation: Eliza, Cheryl, Cordell then I. Cordell was scared shit because she has this transportation fear (Cruise ship will sink, airplane will lose engine power and crash etc.) So, when we took off, she grabbed Cheryl and my hand so tightly that my hand became numb.

| Airplane food! SQ leh! I didn't eat all of it though. I only ate the main one, which was hashbrown, mash potato and a grilled tomato, I think. |
 |
| After awhile, I got kinda bored. What can you expect? It's a 6 hours flight! |

Yeah. Then, after 6 gruelling hours in a plane, we touched down in Seoul, Incheon airport! After grabbing all our luggages and buying an airport bus ticket, we went outside to wait for our bus!

By now, our airport bus probably arrived. So, we grabbed our luggages, hauled them up the bus and off we went! I think it was a... 3-4 hour drive to our bus stop?
AND THEN.
We missed our bus stop. Omg. We had no idea it was our stop until Eliza told us, then we tried to find the stop bell and we took around... 30 seconds? Then, we finally found it, and we dropped off. The good thing was, we dropped off right outside another hotel, so, while Cordell and Eliza waited outside with our luggages in the freezing cold weather, Cheryl and I went inside to ask for directions.
*Walking in*
Hotel dude: *Korean Accent* Hallo, How can I halp you?
Cheryl: Um, do you know the way to Sutton Hotel Myeong Dong?
Hotel dude: Um, you hap to take de taxi
Me: Taxi? Can walk there?
Hotel dude: Ah yes, just walk right, then strait, then walk somemore, then walk left then~~~~
Me: Ah, thank you. We will go now.
*Goes outside*
Eliza: So? What did the person say?
Me: Either take taxi or we wander by ourselves.
No seriously, I had no idea what that dude was saying, AT ALL. He had the korean accent, so it was really difficult to understand him. But we did try, and in the end we found Sutton Hotel Myeong Dong!
We went to the reception area, gave our reservation details (2 twin beds), and then...
Hotel dude: Ah, it's only KRW 1368000. You gave me KRW 2736000
Me: Oh really? Oops~
Hotel dude: It's okay! Is there tip for me?
Me: No...
Hotel dude: Hahahha okay, here is your hotel card, it's Room 408.
Me: Huh? We got 2 rooms
Hotel dude: Oh, wait. *Checks again* Oh sorry, wrong wrong
Me: Lol. Still want tip.
So, then we got both our rooms. (408 & 410) and we rolled our luggages to the lift and took it to level 4.
The moment we entered, WAH. INSTANT WARMTH I tell you.
After that, we unpacked everything and met up again to go for dinner at Myeong Dong. So, we took the subway there and when we reached~
It's like so... lively and happening at night lo~! Plus it was only.. 6 plus? and the sky was already this dark! So, we went to eat at this random shop we went to, and the food was delicious omg. I ordered this porridge and it was so thick and filled with so much herbs and mushrooms. I shared it with Cordell though, cuz I thought that I would want to be hungry later and try Korea's street food!

Then, we decided to split up. Cordell & I, and Cheryl & Eliza. So, off we went!
BUT.
We forgot to tell each other what time to meet. T_T
Haiz.... anyways, we wandered around, again.
THEN.
Cordell and I decided to go back and meet up with them at the same place, and we got lost. Haiz.. already first day and so many major events haiz haiz.. Nvm, so we both kept walking for like I think... 30 minutes? and we still ended up at the same old place we got lost in. PLUS, there was an outdoor dance concert going on, so it was WAY harder to find our way out then.
I think by the next hour we managed to find our way back and Cheryl & Eliza was so worried about us. Haiz haiz... Luckily Seoul felt really safe, if not I think I would have started crying in the middle of public already. Then, after that major turn of events, we took the subway back and walked back to our hotel and showered, then slept ^_^
WOW, This is a super long blog post. Will blog about Day 2 another day then. For now, Happy reading! Annyeong!
