  1. jinhae cherry blossom festival – part 3

    April 3, 2008 by admin


    romance bridge


    i had ice cream for lunch!! (and a packet of mixed nuts)

    right. that’s it. :)

    —————-

    will someone please throw/send/toss/fling/_______ some — no, make that lots — of good vibes my way?? i’ve been feeling quite frustrated recently. sometimes i wish i can share my feelings; it’s not that i have no one to confide in, but i don’t like the idea that i am, in some way, burdening someone else with my problems.

    i miss ktv. i miss singing my troubles away. when was the last time i had a ktv session? man, i can’t even remember. unfortunately, and funnily enough, most of my korean friends do not like ktv, even though it is one of the nation’s favourite past-time. will someone who enjoys ktv please come to korea and sing with me? :)

    i’m so looking forward to june 7. i can’t explain the feeling i get when i step into an airport, any airport. it’s one of those strange-yet-familiar places. and speaking of travel, i can’t believe it’s been almost one month since i came back from japan. how can it be?! someone please explain to me the paradox of time – how is it that the days go by so slowly but the months (and years) pass in a flash?

    i wish people would stop asking me out. at least not while i am feeling so cranky. it’s not that i don’t wanna meet them — i really do — it’s just that i’m afraid i won’t be very good company. as it is, my next few weekends are already all packed. =.=

    life is full of ups and downs. what i do when i encounter the downs is to wait it out, as i live on the faith that things will work itself out, with or without my intervention. and so far, they always do. there’s nothing better than personal experience to strengthen a person’s faith.

    right. i hope my next post will be a more cheerful one. :)

  3. jinhae cherry blossom festival – part 1

    random notes on my trip to jinhae

    • the people down south are really much friendlier, warmer, and more genuine
    • on the train to jinhae on saturday, i saw a news report saying that there will be “많은 비” (a lot of rain) on sunday
    • “a lot of rain” turned out to be a slight drizzle in the morning with sunshine in the afternoon :D
    • it is almost impossible to realistically capture the beauty of the cherry blossoms in pictures. you HAVE to see it in person.
    • the trees were not in full bloom yet, but even then it was amazing.
    • i really should see more of korea, instead of confining myself to seoul
    • then again, i still haven’t seen all of seoul, even after 1 year of being here
    • we went before the festival officially started, which translates to NO CROWD!!!! (i hate crowds)
    • talk about impeccable timing. :D

    alright, as i mentioned earlier, i took A LOT of pictures. so here’s the first part.
