Korea: Day Ten (Seoul)

Day 10!!!! Finally, Im almost done with blogging about Korea. My eyes are burning right now from the lack of sleep and exhaustion from a whole day of lab work today so we'll see how much i can blog today :/

Since we have pretty much covered all the places we wana visit by the 10th day, we went to explore YL's exchange Uni - Korea University.








While YL went off to meet a Korean friend of hers near her school compound, Cl, twin and i went to have breakfast at a nearby breakfast house.




Tuna sushi roll made on the spot!! :D






Exploring the streets near K.U while waiting for YL. We passed by this gift shop and started shopping for STICKERS and totally forgot about the time -__-" yea, stickers. haha.




Lunch at an Indian restaurant on the 2nd floor where they serve authentic Indian cuisine!!






Most of the time, my chinese friends give me a "o.O" face whenever i insist on having Indian food when we are out. I think these 3 friends of mine are the only ones who would get as excited as i was when we decided to try out this crowded restaurant for some Tandoori chicken and curry. haha.



A whole table of delicious food!! This is actually a set meal meant for 3 but good enough to fit us 4 gluttons. hehe.




After-lunch snack was a chocolate-flavored waffle with plain yogurt ice-cream at this stand-alone waffle store! A very unique combination eh!






Next stop - Korea University!! Well, i would prefer to call it "The Castle" because of its stone-wall architecture. If my school looks like this, i will not skip lecture (as often) im sure. haha.










Headed back to Hongdae in the afternoon with only a really pathetic amount of money left in my pocket, having spent most of my ker-chings in the past 9 days. But, that didn't stop me from buying...




The CUTEST iphone cover in the www :D This hot pink rubber cover is mad love, even though it is relatively more expensive than the covers sold here.


We were deciding what to have for dinner when Korean Ramyeon came to mind. It's surprising how YL never include this dish in our itinerary because she deemed it as the "most boring Korean food" in the country. However, we managed to persuade her to bring us to a random food stall for some traditional ramen.




I picked Ramyeon with steamed dumplings! As expected, this bowl of noodles simply tasted like...your usual Nong Shim korean maggi mee!! HAHAHA. No wonder YL was so hesitant :/





Last minute shopping at Myeongdong and Lotte Mart for the girls who still have money left (which obviously does not include me. hahahah)




Oh Oh Oh!! How can i not mention how my friends tried to embarass me in Seoul?!! haha. KT and YL bought a whole lot of kimchi, dried food and whatnot from Lotte Mart so they picked up a cardboard box near the exit and had me carry it for them from the supermarket ALL THE WAY BACK TO SINCHON -___-"



Everyone was staring at me throughout the whole subway ride, not forgetting how it was so difficult for me to even get on the crowded train. Bleah.


Another round of fried chicken for supper =) Should have ordered Kyochon though, they serve the most yummylicious chicken!!






Until next time~~
