It's nice and cozy inside the tower!


Best place at the Namsan Tower : Locks of Love!







    Went to the University Guest House for the night, roomed with CHRISTY! ^^ was really happy when we got into the room, so warm and cozy. Got living room somemore! Wanted to take a pic of the room but i cant find my camera :x emptied my bagpack, still no sign of it. Watched the walking dead and the mummy 3 while waiting for christ to finish, had already forgot the i lost my camera. Went to bed ard 11 and we gossip till midnight.


DAY 2


woke up ard 7 and saw christy already finish preparing, contacts and wig on. And im still in bed, half awake. Went to the bath room and had a quick brush, then tried to put on my contacts. Took more than 10 minutes to put it on, usually need less than 5 minutes only. The cold makes my eyes blink and i got really frustrated. Was preparing halfway when the doorbell rang. It was elaine and guanying, both already prepared and had their luggage with them while me and christ still packing.
