<span style="text-align: justify;">As I've gotten a couple of questions on both </span><b style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/heygodareyouready" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">YOUTUBE</span></a></b><span style="text-align: justify;">, </span><b style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.instagram.com/dwaejieolgul" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">IG</span></a></b><span style="text-align: justify;">, FB and via </span><b style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.dwaejiga.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">TUMBLR</span></a></b><span style="text-align: justify;">, I decided to make a little post regarding my experience as a KGSP student and some of the questions I've gotten over the past 2 years. I got the scholarship in 2016, spent 1 year in Busan (at Busan Univ. of Foreign Studies in Namsan) and am now about to begin my third semester of my graduate degree in Korean Studies, at Yonsei Univ., meaning I have one full year left of my grad. school studies in Seoul.</span></div>

If you want to remain anonymous or don't have a blogger ID, tumblr is probably the best way to go. All new questions will be added to this page as they come in, so feel free to check back later.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><b>HOW DO I APPLY?</b></span><br />
You apply either via embassy track or university track. The two processes are slightly different. I applied via embassy track. Regulations and requirements are altered every year, so please check out <span style="font-size: x-small;"><b><a href="http://www.studyinkorea.go.kr/en/sub/gks/allnew_invite.do;jsessionid=74862B4E85E3D9AEC5AF4E680CD34A0B.node_20" target="_blank">STUDYINKOREA</a></b></span>'s website on the matter.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">WHEN CAN I APPLY?</span></b><br />
It depends whether you're applying for a BA or an MA. The BA deadline is usually in Fall and the MA deadline is in Spring. Please keep an eye on your embassy's website or on NIIED/studyinkorea's website.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">CAN I STUDY _____?</span></b><br />
I don't know. It depends on your university and current regulations. Your best bet is to check the lists released with the first round of results.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><b>SHOULD I LEARN KOREAN BEFORE GOING?</b></span><br />
NIIED sponsors one year of intense Korean class to prepare you for the TOPIK test. Keep in mind that studying Korean language and studying for the TOPIK test are two very different things. I know many who get high level in the test, but cannot speak Korean to save their lives, so don't get discouraged if you don't do well on that particular test. It's garbage imo. If you learn hangeul before going, it'll be super helpful, so I definitely recommend that!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><b>CAN I BRING MY WIFE/HUSBAND/PARTNER?</b></span><br />
Yes, but they're not allowed to live with you at the dorms. All dorms are gender-divided. NIIED will not cover their living expenses nor give them an allowance either.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><b>MUST I GET THE RECOMMENDATION LETTERS?</b></span><br />
Yes and they must be written, signed and sealed by the person who's giving it to you. They cannot simply ask you what to write and then say they approve.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><b>HOW HIGH A GPA DO I NEED TO GET THE SCHOLARSHIP?</b></span><br />
I don't know the exact criteria for how they choose their candidates. The official requirement is no lower than 80% (2.8) on your most recently obtained education. To be fair, I think it's more important you have good connections to the institution you want to apply through.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">WHAT BOOKS DO YOU USE AT LANGUAGE SCHOOL?</span></b><br />
It depends on the language school and the teacher. At BUFS we used different ones depending on level and teacher of the class.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">CAN I PLEASE SEE YOUR MOTIVATIONAL LETTER/APPLICATION?</span></b><br />
No. My application is personal, as is my motivational letter and letter of introduction and I will not send it out for you to copy or get "inspired" by. I will also not reveal my study plan. I've gotten quite a few messages from young girls who want to go to Korea because they love Kpop. If you cannot provide a proper reason for studying in Korea on your own (other than kpop), you probably should not apply. You're there to study and get your degree, not to chase oppas and go to concerts.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">CAN I CHOOSE THE LANGUAGE SCHOOL I GO TO?</span></b><br />
No you cannot. NIIED places you outside of Seoul, if your degree university is in Seoul.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">I JUST GOT ACCEPTED TO _____ UNIV. HOW DO I APPLY FOR KGSP?</span></b><br />
The KGSP program is not for students who are already accepted to a university or attending a university in Korea. It's a program that has specific guidelines and a long and straining application process. You cannot apply for only a semester or the like.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO GET IT?</span></b><br />
It depends on the country and the number of spots they get. Only two people could get it from Denmark and the two of us that got it both had close connections at the embassy through either an internship or extra curricular work and events with the staff there. Having a personal relationship with people at the institution you wish to apply through will help you tremendously to make a good impression. You have to gather an insane amount of documents, fill out forms and do a lot of waiting. It's extremely stressful and very straining. The entire process and the many selection rounds stretch over several months, so it's a lot of sleepless nights and running around trying to get people to sign and provide documents for you.<br />

I figured I'd use 'aesthetics' as I heard all the cool kids are into <i>aestethics</i> these days. <b>aesthetics</b>. I also noticed that the Danish term "<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">hygge</span></b>" is apparently trending on Youtube and in the bloggersphere. How did that happen? I saw hygge in articles about Denmark being the happiest country in the world a couple of times already, but I didn't realize that people are actually <b><i>making it a thing</i></b> online now. It's super funny to me, because the word doesn't translate into English very well, so every time someone is like "omg we're so <i>hygge</i>" it makes no fucking sense and majority of Danes seeing their posts/videos are probably all like "???????" hahaha.</div>

<b><span style="color: #c27ba0; font-size: large;">Anyway...</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know, it's been a while. My blog has been silent for majority of the year and to be honest with you (if any of my readers are even out there anymore), I lost my mojo. I had so much shit to deal with since October last year, and applying for the scholarship back in January-June was so stressful that it was pretty much all I had on my mind for majority of the year. Now, you're probably thinking "Scholarship? What?" And yeah well.. I applied for the Korean Government Scholarship Program to get my MA in Korean Studies in Korea - and I got it. I got the scholarship. I am currently in Korea, studying at Busan University of Foreign Studies - however, I am not here for the actual MA. The program includes 1 year of language studies and 2 years of MA studies. I got here in August and will be here till July next year (most likely) finishing my year of language studies and then moving on to my actual MA studies at Yonsei Graduate School of International Studies next summer. If you're an OG reader, you'll know that Yonsei is the uni I went to for my study-abroad year back in 2012 and yes, kids, momma is coming home, haha! I can't wait. But for now, I'm enjoying some amazing times in Busan, and I've already been blessed with so many new, amazing friends and adventures. To be honest, a little part of me still cannot believe that I am actually here and that I, of all the people in this world, got her wish granted this past spring.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What else has been going on? I'm sure you guys are here for photos (especially the food porn), and I will give you that - no worries. But let's catch up a bit first, shall we?</div>

<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">1.</span></b> I got the scholarship as I mentioned and am currently in Namsandong, Busan, with the peeps upthere ^</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">2. </span></b>My birthday is coming up next week</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">3.</span></b> I broke my leg about 3 weeks ago</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">4.</span></b> Said broken leg didn't see a doctor until I felt forced to go to the hospital after walking on a severely sprained ankle for 10 days. lol</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #c27ba0;"><b>5.</b></span> My ankle surprisingly was not broken, but I cracked my shin pretty severely and am now in a cast.. thing.. which is highly inconvenient and I can't walk around much.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">6. </span></b>I have the most amazing Bulgarian room mate and she and I are super similar, which our respective families find quite hilarious - we do too. haha!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">7.</span></b> Koreans love medication and I've been pretty much sedated for the past 2 weeks. I literally have no clue what's happened and don't even remember being in class at all. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">8.</span></b> My parents sent me a huge box from home with tons of goodies for me and my roomie, as I - due to classes - won't be able to go home for Christmas. So here's to another year without Danish Christmas for me.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">9.</span></b> Next weeekend, though, my roomie and I organized a small Christmas morning gathering with out little group of 6 girls who've all grown quite close over the past 3 months. Can't wait for everyone to open their presents! Let's hope the last two ones arrive in the mail.. soon lol.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">10.</span></b> The medicine I was on was so strong that it scared me and I stopped taking it. I am going back to the hospital tomorrow (Monday) to talk to the doctor and get x-rays done again. Gotta make sure the leg is healing properly!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">11.</span></b> Invested in this <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://kr.iherb.com/NutriBiotic-Organic-Rice-Protein-Chocolate-6-9-oz-650-g/70644" target="_blank">VEGAN PROTEIN POWDER</a></span></b> to make shakes and it's super super awful. Goodbye money. Goodbye protein gainzz.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">12.</span></b> That said, iHerb is quite nice! You can use my code <b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">LIN9012</span></b> for a 10% discount on your first purchase! Wooh! If you're a Dane though, beware of customs! :((</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">13.</span></b> Oh, I'm also vegan/plant based now.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">14.</span></b> My beloved Ivan passed away the beginning of September, so that really sucked. I'd hoped he'd have hung in there till I get back in February. But he got his rest, I am happy that he is no longer in pain. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">15. </span></b>Oh yeah, I'm going back to see my family in February! My only break from class is in February, wtf. Such stress :((</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #c27ba0;">16.</span></b> Due to the scholarship all I do is take TOPIK tests, I feel. It's awful.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Ah, my poor leg + ankle. To be honest, my ankle hurts a lot more than the cracked shin, though. It's still pretty swollen and it's been 3 weeks, wtf. I fell down from a stairway at a temple in Beomeosa, because I didn't see the gap between the staircase and the construction by the temple. So I just walked to the side as someone said "be careful", and I thought she meant 'Oh watch out, someone wants to pass you' - so I stepped out, fell down and yeah.. the rest is history - however sad. Haha! The stupid thing is that the temple trip (which was supposed to be followed by hiking up the mountain) was a trip arranged by our school as a "culture class" to experience Korean culture. My roomie and I were the only ones SUPER EXCITED about the hiking part! We were so stoked, dressed warmly and going up the first hill to the temple SO excitedly, while everyone else were mainly like "wtf ughhhh I don't wannaaa". Ironic that one of the only ones who REALLY wanted to go, got stuck in the administrations office because apparently they couldn't send me back to the dorm? It's pretty stupid bc after the office closed at around 5PM, I was stuck outside in the cold for about 20-30 minutes before someone came to pick me up. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
However.. while they left me in the administrations office and went hiking after I fell, I did get to experience the kindness of Buddhist monks and their love for acupuncture, the Korean hospital trip was interesting indeed and I also first hand experienced the terrors of not knowing what kind of medicine they were giving me. I later found out, though, that the reason I kept tripping, getting super sleepy and drowsy and didn't remember much at all, was because I was on a sedative AND pain killer.. 3 times a day.. originally given to last me for 2 weeks. I'm not sure how Korean students do that, though. I was in class, alright, but I was not.. <b><span style="color: #c27ba0; font-size: x-small;">THERE</span></b>. lol. Scary indeed. Luckily I'm off that crap, now. We'll see tomorrow how the healing is going for the shin. I know for a fact that the ankle is gonna take a LONG-ass while to heal for sure.</div>

And my side of the room. We have no fridge, no kitchen appliances are allowed and there isn't even a lounge on every floor like at SK Global (Yonsei) where you at least can put your stuff in a bag in a shared fridge. We got nothing, so we use our windowsill as the "fridge". The struggle.. lol. ((and yes, I brought my LoL plushies bc they remind me of epic game nights with potato pizza and RuPaul's Drag Race at <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/yujacheong/" target="_blank">NUDDELE</a></span></b>'s place, ok. ♡))</div>

During a multi-cultural event here at BUFS, I got to be a traditional Korean bride for the hanbok fashion show! Huhuuuu! It was super fun, but also really difficult. We were on our feet for like 7 hours, not allowed to sit unless to get our hair done. Also the organizers had quite the challenge with my hair, bc it's quite short and super soft. What can ya do? They had to tie it up like 3 or 4 times before being able to attach the head piece and hair pin. It looked really nice tho! I felt SO pretty and people complimented me all night, haha! It was such a great experience!</div>

Ahh my parents sent me so many goodies! *_* Nezumi also sent me a package with the most DELICIOUS berry granola, wraaahhh. She also sent me a pack of my favorite tortillas! Haha! Freaking love my vegan wraps, yo! Above is JUST the stuff from my parents though, holy shit. I got me some WASA crisp bread, lots of snacks and candy, new boots for winter (cause it's cold as fuck here, though the temperature shifts from 16 degrees celsius one day to -2 the next), Christmas tree, Christmas + birthday presents AND advent presents, some of my clothes from home and some pain killers + pads for lady-time lol. That may be TMI, but let's be real - Korean pads are HUGE. Even the small ones are SO WIDE they jam into your thighs and it hurts :(( rude much. </div>

Current read that my lovely German friend, Michelle lend me! It's super fun already and I can't wait to read further! She told me it was kinda strange, but the defiant personality of the main character reminds me of my roomie quite a lot, haha. So funny! Also love the way it's told in interview-style. I'm actually also reading a Korean book called "I'M" atm, which I'll tell y'all about in a later entry. Just thought it'd put it out there, haha. I'm so cultured, oh em gee.</div>

So many vlogmas videos to keep up with! Wrahh! Freaking love December and I love that more and more of my favorite Youtubers are getting into vlogging as well : D I prefer vlogs over anything, tbh. I don't care for adverts or hauls and favorites videos anymore.. I wanna see what y'all are up to! Haha. Who cares what mascara you use, when I can see you feed your cat, make coffee and run to Trader Joe's for groceries instead >: D In case you're curious, I'm currently watching these vlogmas series:</div>

Hope you enjoyed! I'll try to find the motivation to do more shit for y'all. Haha, I wanna film videos again too, but I need to pick myself out of the self-pitying "everything hurts and I can't fucking walk"-gutter and get my shit sorted. I will say tho that now that I'm off the meds, I feel much better! The side effects were so severe and I cannot BELIEVE that I don't remember ANYTHING from the past two weeks being on them. Talk about effective sedatives, lol. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Have a good one, and happy holidays! I'll def. make a post about our Christmas funsies next week! And maybe even a mid-week post for my birthday, huhu! Alright, getting carried away here.. no more promises! I can't believe how much I missed blogging, though, haha. I feel so accomplished writing this. I have midterms next week though, which I should be studying for, but my memory for the past 2 weeks is quite hazy, so I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to do or what's gonna happen. lol. So sad. What's also sad is that the first midterm is on my damn birthday, arhhh. How dare they!? :(( <span style="text-align: center;">lol.</span></div>

(except crazy-ass SNSD fangirls and fanboys)Hello! It's been a while, yet again, and I apologize! I've been trying to record a Youtube video for the past week's time and it's just not been working out for me. I had footage for like 2 days of recording and I wasn't happy with any of it :C so boo my face. The first files had decent content but my face looked shit. The last files.. well, I looked ok but my talking was a mess. So yeah, I'm sorry you guys T_T the Youtube stuff will have to wait. Hopefully I can record a bit tomorrow. We'll see.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, today is a holiday here in Korea - Buddha's birthday, meaning no classes! Yay for Buddha! Yonsei celebrated the SUPER popular AKARAKA! festival this week, concluded with a huge party/cheering event with lots of stars performing, cheering chants and just tons of awesome things. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7291/8746978617_34ed0927fe.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was a great experience, but it is indeed the first and LAST time that I buy a VIP ticket. I was in the second row up front and when SNSD were announced, people went BALLISTIC and pushed to get up front... which resulted in us up front being squished against a fence that almost fell over. Luckily some security fellas came to our rescue, but at that moment I was certain that I'd die. I didn't die though, but I DID get a rather large cut on my hand, which is super painful atm :C I swear to Buddha fanboys are worse than fangirls, because most boys are bigger, wider and stronger than girls. Meaning they'll knock you over faster and harder. -sobs- It was not fun at all. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
After that, my mood was rather ruined and I couldn't enjoy YB (Brian Kim?) nor JYP performing. I was angry (pissed off, really) and rather scared that last night would be my last fucking day on earth. I said before on my blog (and <b><a href="http://oddnessweirdness.blogspot.kr/2013/04/day-5-guest-blogger-week-rant-about.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">ERIKA</span></a></b>'s blog) that fangirls are usually middle-school or early high-school in age. I was proven horribly wrong as about 500 uni students came furiously towards me. I don't understand why these fuckers try so hard to come further up front. It doesn't make sense! It's not like you can see more or get to touch them anyway -__-" Fucking idiots. </div>

Speaking of crazy fans I also attended the Dream Concert 2013 last weekend and the show was awesome! Spite the hosts (Goo Hara (KARA), Onew (SHINee) and Dujun (B2st)) having to re-take a few introductions (because of other artists getting in the way or some lights going out) it was bomb! AND I GOT TO SEE EXO LIVE OMG! Kris' voice is so fucking sexual I can't even.. Let me tell you, and all girls can verify this (straight or gay) - a guy with a deep voice is just.... -sigh- sexual. Ok. Sexual. My favorite performances were definitely SHINee, BTOB (these guys never disappoint!), T-Ara (which is surprising as I don't like them lol), 4Minute (even though Hyuna wasn't there T_T), U-Kiss and of course EXO. Though we couldn't see EXO that clearly (our seats were actually pretty good) they were so dope and ugh.. Kris' part... unf. Sadly, there've been <b><span style="color: #3d85c6;">some rumors surfacing</span></b> here and there (especially on Tumblr, the land of dumb and delusional) about <b><span style="color: #674ea7;">T-ara having a black ocean</span></b> during their performance -__-" This is NOT TRUE. I don't know why some people find joy in coming up with lame rumors to make other fandoms look bad (it's just as stupid as going onto one artist's Youtube to compliment them by bringing another artist down). T-ara were rooted and cheered for just like everybody else. End of discussion. Maybe people saw footage that was recorded from the floor. The floor (VIP section and where people, who won tickets, were seated) was mainly dark because majority of people seated there didn't have any light sticks. That's it. The only group who appeared to lack support was EvoL. Not surprising though, I think there were some BLOCK.B fans among the crowd. huehuehue. Oh well, it's not EvoL's fault that nobody knows who they are nor that Stardom is a rather shitty company when it comes to artists' rights and promotions. -__-" </div>

Other than that, I've been doing the usual. I've been shopping a bit here and there and actually got my first "red" lipstick. It shows up a bit more fuschia/dark pink on the picture, but oh well.. I like it anyway! ^__^)/ I also ordered my Yonsei jacket (which will be dope as fuck!!) - I'll show it on the blog when it arrives. Also, I'm waiting for a package from my parents : D yay! They shipped it out Tuesday last week, so it should be here soon ^__^"</div>

I started watching Death Note again! My all-time favorite anime/manga ever! I think the story-line kinda died with L, but I still love watching it. All episodes where L is present are just fucking bomb and Kenichi Matsuyama does his interpretation of L in the live movies SO WELL! Can you believe that he went from a justice-oriented, gentle and super smart person like L to play the main character of the psycho in Zeni Geba? My mind still cannot wrap itself around that. It's mind-boggling and fucking awesome! If you guys haven't seen him in Zeni Geba yet... look it up, watch and love it! It's so epic!</div>

What else has happened... I did an un-posted OOTD here + a face shot of me before and after makeup. The photos probably aren't taken on the same day.. I dunno. lol. When do I ever know? But I think the OOTD is from Denmark Day (more info below) and the blank face is from.. last night while the makeup face is from today.<br />

On to Denmark Day! The event was held at Global Lounge here at campus on May 8th and 9th and we even got to meet the Danish ambassador of South Korea! It was so cool : D We had put up different sectors for the event where people could see pictures and products made by Danish companies and we were even sponsored by awesome companies like Denmark Milk, LEGO and Maersk! It was beyond rad and the people at Global Lounge said that this was the most successful Global Day they'd ever participated in! : D It was SO BOMB! Thanks to everyone who came! : D Here are.. some pictures!<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After the event one of the guys asked us what we wanted for dinner and we'd been craving pizza all day.. so we asked for pizza! He'd given us the impression that the pizza would be ordered for us only (we were 5-6 Danish people + a Korean that wanted pizza) so we could share among ourselves, because some of the others wanted chicken, some wanted noodles etc. Sadly all the Koreans decided to eat most of our pizza (as the pizza arrived first) and after watching our precious pizza disappear, we found out that they had actually ordered something else for themselves already - black bean noodles and mandu (fried dumplings) + some pork stuff. Rather fucking annoying as we barely got any food while they shamelessly ate most of ours AND their own. -__-" Rude. </div>

After everyone had left we ordered our OWN pizza, though, (pics above) and then enjoyed it with a Korean guy who stayed to hang out! We also watched the old Danish movie (oldie but goodie!) Martha. It was a brilliant night! : D (spite people eating our pizza :C )</div>

I've been getting a lot of referrals from Google directing people searching "Jay Park MCM Joah" etc., so I figured that I would do a quick basic post on his backpack! As you all know, I'm a huge fan of MCM and therefore I'd be happy to touch upon the brand for you guys! Hoho~ </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jay Park is not only rocking some epic <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.leavetheboyalone.com/" target="_blank">BOY LONDON</a></span></b> gear in his recent music video for the (super awesome!!!) song <span style="font-size: x-small;"><b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMtCJC39SqU&feature=share&list=PLUBkOFC6bzB6pn8dz6EaoWawmwxomZLKh" target="_blank">JOAH ('좋아')</a></b></span>, he's also seen dancing around in an alley wearing the beautiful red MCM Stark backpack. As Jay's version not only has the basic studs on the top part of the front of the bag but ALSO has studs on the sides, I'm guessing that his bag is a custom version of the Stark, made especially for him. It is not uncommon for kpop stars to hit up the PR people (or designers directly) of MCM to request certain customizations done to the bags that they want to buy; 2ne1, Key (SHINee), 2AM and especially G-Dragon are well known for doing exactly that.<br />

<br />
Jay Park's bag appears to be a medium size (<strike>I'm judging by the fact that he's short and it looks "normal sized" on him, lol</strike>) MCM Stark in red, customized with extra studs on both lower sides of the bag and on the top middle of the front (by the logo). The regular version of the Stark varies in price (and size) from W495,000 to up to W675,000. The bigger the bag is and the more studs it has - the more expensive it'll be, as all studs are attached by hand.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<strike>Ugly-ass</strike> fakes of the MCM bags are all over the place (especially in Asia) and cheap stores are shamelessly copying everything from the shape to the actual brand logo of the bag. The price of the original bag is expensive - yes, but think of it as an investment. I've dropped my bag, scratched it against brick walls, accidentally stepped on it and ripped it open quite viciously a few times. I also carry heavy books and a laptop in it, yet it hasn't lost its shape at all! You are paying for the quality of MCM - not just the pretty gold logo and the 3 letters. Sure, you can probably get a cheaper copy, but if you ever come to Korea with that.... lol. People will easily recognize that yours is fake and they will probably laugh at you for even trying. I'm not saying that you should buy the real deal because I did (nor because people in Korea will die laughing if they ever see you with a fake), I'm just saying that you should really consider what you are paying for. <u><b>You can pay half of the MCM bag's price for a knock-off, but keep in mind - the quality will ALSO be a knock-off</b></u>.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Notice anything different? Except for the fact that I quickly blogged.. or.. am blogging.. or well, am typing this. lol. Whatever.. I know, I know, I did a Wufan layout the time before last, but UGH HE'S SO AWESOME. And I've been using this particular pic as my desktop pic for the past.. 100 years. And I wanted to share it with you. I wanted to keep this spring layout as simple and clean colored as possible.. and light too. lol.<br />
<br />
I went to Andong to do some research for a school paper (I'm so fucking busy lately with mid-terms it's not even funny) and I snapped some photos.. I wanted to share some of them with you as well as tell you about the layout.<br />

<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8242/8638046224_7dcfdeabfe.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hey guys! Here's a tiny MAC haul along with some first impressions : D I originally went to MAC to get a concealer, but the girl just looked at me and went <i>"Concealer? 왜요? 그걸필요없잖아요..."</i> (A concealer? Why? You don't need one..) so I left with 3 products - none of them being a concealer. lol. I don't dare say<i> "nice skin problems"</i> because you'd probably all throw darts at me.. but really though, I never used concealer before! D: I wanna try it! /sigh/ Anyway, here's what I got!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8254/8638046356_89a0b79e49.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>

<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8242/8636941071_53b1889aef.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b>FIRST IMPRESSION</b></u>: So nice! The girl at the store put it on me, and can we just talk about how weird it is that makeup artists use those "<b><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MGVn8gTXhUY/T7bE9T74TYI/AAAAAAAAAEI/ku5VobjnAKM/s1600/mac-190-foundation-brush.jpg" target="_blank">paint brushes</a></b>" to apply foundation with? I'm a regular person.. walking to the MAC counter with a friend. This is not a movie - or photoshoot. Stop that! :C It's unhygienic (at least imo), it packs on too much product AND it makes the foundation appear super streaky. So let's just all agree that we should never do that. Ever. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Anyway</i></b>, when applied with my (clean!!) fingers, it looks super nice as is, but I like to blend it out with my Sigma F80 anyway.. because I'm a perfectionist. When I wear anything on my skin, I want it to look as if I'm not wearing anything at all. I don't understand how so many of those Youtube girls can PACK on product as was it their last day on earth without feeling grimy. Sure, we can't see it on camera - but I wouldn't wanna be your skin at the end of the day o__o yuck! Natural-looking foundation all the way pl0x!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><u>FIRST IMPRESSION</u></b>: Love it! Needless to say, haha! I've been on a crazy-ass peach-blush addiction-wave for the past 6 months (if not more) and I LOVE 'EM ALL! I got Peaches from MAC already and I love that one too.. Ugh, so nice! -hugs peach tone blushes- Let me love you all! I never realized how well peach tones emphasize my skincolor, but being the yellow-skinned girl that I am - it's all good. The girl at the MAC store I went to seemed rather surprised that I knew a lot of MAC names (for products and shades) AND that all the stuff I wanted to try on looked good on me. She wanted to put a very coral shade lipstick on me.. It didn't look bad, but when she said "It'll look good with the peach blush that you picked" I was like ".... -__- no" lol. Anyway, this peach tone blush is "Immortal Flower" and I've been eyeing it at MAC in not only Korea but also back home. I love it to bits! If you're an ulzzang-lover (or just a sucker for the clean look and pale skin) this color is perfect for you ^__^)/</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><u>FIRST IMPRESSION</u></b>: I usually hate the term "Your lips but better-color" because let's face it.. why the fuck would I wanna spend money on a lipstick that has the same color as my lips but apparently looks "better"? Don't be silly now. This color is close to my own lipcolor. It looks dark in the tube, but when applied it has a subtle pink hue to it. I like it a lot! Oh, it's Creme Cup btw! Can you believe that the color a lot of girls use as their "nude" is a dark nude pink for me? Ugh pale yellow girl problems. LOL. When I saw that my prep+prime color was "Extra Light" I almost died. Haha!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That's it! Ahh, it's been a while since I dipped back into beauty huh? I bought a lot of stuff lately <strike>that I can't afford</strike>, and I really wanted to share it with you in a haul video.. But I'm not sure how to go about that. -__-" I also wanted to do a Spring Essentials video! Let's see how well that goes.. lol. Also got another kpop haul coming up! Leggoooo~!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Oh btw!</div>

Hello and excuse my re-occurring absence. I got extremely sick after the G-Dragon concert last weekend and have been coughing up an indefinite amount of bacteria for the past week's time. I've been on cold medicine, pain killers, allergy medicine, fever reducers (and what else not) and I am finally starting to feel better. I know, I know.. y'all think I'm sick all the time, but I actually haven't been sick since I was sick around Christmas/beginning of January.. so yeah, I was doing really well until this dumb-ass flu came along :C boo!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, as I shortly mentioned, I went to the G-Dragon concert last Saturday and it was pretty bomb. Sadly the concert was barely one and a half hours long (which is very short for a Korean concert - any concert imo) but Tablo (EPIK HIGH), Lee Hai (Lee Hi) and CL (2ne1) all made an appearance so that was super cool. I flipped the fuck out (needless to say) when Tablo came on stage and I still can't get my hands down. Haha he is so awesome!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What's most important is that my family arrived in Incheon last monday and I was beyond excited to see them! I've been hanging out with them a lot and I really wanna thank them for coming out to see me during their easter holidays. It was so bomb and ughhh.. I got so much delicious food while they were here. T_T yums. (excuse the unedited phone pics)</div>

Nezumi's dad came to Seoul too and we decided to take them around Seoul for funsies and exploration of the city. We took them to Seoul Tower (Namsan Tower) one of the nights and it was super chill. We took the cable car thing up to the bottom near the tower and then walked up the stairs. DAMN BRO that trip is tough when you're an older lady.. like my grandma! Haha poor grandma. She was having a hard time in Seoul cause the area is so damn hilly and mountain-y.<br />

On Sunday I took my family to the zoo in Grand Park in Seoul. It was super nice and the weather too! sadly a lot of the animals looked kinda sick or injured. One of the leopards was limping around like a wounded soldier and one of the wolves there was almost hyperventilating, laying on the ground :C Depressing. Lemme hug you aaaaall~!<br />

I heard that female lions are way worse when it comes to aggressiveness than the males. We had an incident in Denmark where the female lions actually killed and ate a new male that the zoo had just gotten home for new "lines" for breeding etc. I guess they didn't like him. o__o imagine the view that met the visitors that day.

Sadly I was quite annoyed by the amount of idiot little kids screaming, yelling and banging on the cages to make the animals move - moreso annoyed did I become when the parents did nothing to tell their kids to please respect that the animal is asleep/relaxing and should be allowed to do so. So yet again... I went back to hating kids (and their dumb, irresponsible parents. ew).</div>

To end this entry - though it's already packed with photos.. - here's a picture of a really cute purse that my dad got me while they were here : D </div>

They went home Thursday, so I was quite upset.. which explains the shopping therapy I did later on (meaning: today) hoho! I will do a haul video! I got both kpop, makeup, clothing etc. Super nice! </div>

I bought these shoes a couple of days ago, but I really like them. They're a BIT too tight, but I don't mind suffering for them. Hoho! Cool aye? They're the newest version of the Jeremy Scott Wings 2.0 - they look epic and are quite comfy spite being a bit too small. Love 'em!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Food! A few pics.. a bit random but oh well!</div>

This is from Nezumi's and my trip to Myeongdong today. The chicken was gross but the rest was yummy! The chicken kinda tasted like those nuggets you buy at the grocery store and then heat up at home in the oven. Grooooooss X__o</div>

OUUUUWWWW</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Again, sorry for the long hiatus. I feel a bit better (spite random cough-attacks that seem to attempt to kill me lol) so I might do that haul video soon! Ahh being sick sucks so bad :C Damn you fluuuu!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know, I know. I promised many things in my previous entry, but then again - when do I ever keep my promises on this blog? lol. I feel especially stupid for not blogging since I got the <span style="font-size: x-small;"><b><a href="http://www.nancakes.org/2013/02/mcm-korea-x-2012-ss501.html" target="_blank">MCM PHOTOS</a>.</b></span>, because I shared my blog link in Korean class today (we were talking about hobbies). I'm not sure how many of my fellow class mates actually stopped by here, though. Majority of them are Americans, so I reckon they'd easily understand the language used. We're all 3급 after all, hoho, so even the Korean parts they ought to understand. 횡설수설아니지? ㅎㅎ</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been working hard on an upcoming fashion post, but sketching everything out is taking forever and I'm not sure how to go about it, still, so I'm obviously in the process of working that out. I also promised more videos, but I've been having a hard time coming up with things to talk about. I still wanna do a "Tips for Foreigners in Korea"-video, but like the fashion post - not sure how to go about that. Are there any videos you'd want me to do? Any suggestions? Let me know ^3^)/<br />
<br />
Anyway, this was me today...<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8514/8533159995_8b6cc67301.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
I've been suffering severe lady cramps (well excuse my details lol) and have been wanting to die for majority of the day. I had some issues with 우리은행(uri bank) as I tried to withdraw some money yesterday, but the machine fucked up and I never got my money. o__o Now... normally the machine just cancels the transaction, but not for me.. -__-" So yeah, they transferred the money back for me today. Yesterday I had a really nice gentleman from SECOM (security company, I guess?) help me out and he even went with me to the bank on campus today to help explain everything. Such a good man he is! Thank you! m(__ __)m" Anyhoozle, everything should be back in my account in about 10-15 days. So yeah, let's keep our fingers crossed that nothing else goes wrong for me, shall we? (<strike>wanna bet I just jinxed that..? lol</strike>) My cramps still sucked.. I got pain killers tho and JUST before entering Korean class.. they kicked in! Ahhh, 다행이네!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8376/8533159991_49f6b6db19.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
I finally joined the Dr. Marten family, which has been yet another source of troubles for me. If you want to see what pain these babies caused me click <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8514/8533159999_9e441a3bac.jpg" target="_blank" title="HINT: it's gross">HERE</a></span></b> (if you hate feet or blisters... don't click lol, just sayin'. It's nasty yo..) Ironically I also got a blister on my left ring finger for shoving socks and leg warmers INTO the shoes to AVOID blisters.. lolol ok ok karma I see, I see; you got a good sense of humor too -__-" bsh.. Anyway, I do not regret getting these! They're a size 7 (EU: 38) btw! Which is half a size smaller (almost an entire size) smaller than I usually get (which is EU: 38,5-39).. o__o am I the only one whose shoe size differs like no other? It's weird. Just about 2 years ago I was suddenly an 8. LOL. Weird. Now I'm back to 7. Oh well, I love them anyway! They're so fancy! : D and I'm sure.. that they will be comfortable eventually. Also they make me like half an inch taller! Haha, poor Nezumi. She's forever short : P wahahaha.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8389/8533160019_ee5f07fe54.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
Spite all the bad, there is always good things happening in between. The guy at CARIBOU COFFEE downstairs is really nice to me when I go there.. he always gives me vanilla syrup for free (it's usually 50 cents to get more added to your drink). I'm picky with my vanilla latte ok, so I need it sweet! School also started which I'm really excited about : D I've been really lazy over winter - which means my brain cells are dying. My languages are also going a little weird (especially my Danish is terrible atm., lol). Anyway, my classes this semester seem really nice. I take Korean classes at KLI (level 3), Confucian Ethics in Modern Korean Society and Topics on Korean Language and Culture. The last one is taught by the SWEETEST lady! I was really confused on where to get my book on the first day (yesterday), but she was so nice to me.. and she looked at me for a second when I was about to leave and then said "Ahh, you're so pretty! 예쁘다!" - needless to say.. I love her! Hahahaha! ♡ I got her for one class again tomorrow.. I'm excited! She includes a lot of confucianism in her class which I really like ^__^)/ Confucianism is awesome ok! Joseon dynasty ftw! (lol I'm tired don't judge me)<br />
<br />
Anyway, that's it. I'm super tired right now.. -__-" I ought to study a bit before bed but my brain has gone completely mushy already. -sigh- Hope you're all doing well! I'm still contemplating on getting a new MCM bag, but I will keep you all posted on that ^__^)/ don't forget to check out my <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.twitter.com/dwaejieolgul" target="_blank">TWITTER</a></span></b> or Instagram (heygodareyouready) for more frequent updates.

Hey there! I got the epic pictures taken by the epic photographer at the epic MCM x Vogue Fashion Night Out event in September last year w000t! How epic is that? I know.. SUPER.. EPIC. I wanna take this quick opportunity to first of all thank our good friend - without this amazing person, we wouldn't have had this once in a lifetime experience ^3^)/ thank you! 베리판니! ♡ ㅋㅋ Please, you guys, since I don't own the rights to these (but simply got permission to use them on my blog) don't go spreading them around, removing the tag etc. If you absolutely cannot resist reposting on other sites (tumblr, twitter etc.) please give full credit to this site and link back to this entry in particular. I give all picture-taking-props to the photographer at the event - thanks for the many (and awesome) pictures ^__^)/ ~ ♡ hoho! Even though some of the pics aren't very flattering for me... -__- ugh damn being taller than most people here - including the photographers, lol. BUT we (I, Kat and Nezumi) super much appreciate the entire night! So thanks to all staff for treating us like royalty! I will put small captions below some of the pics to explain what's going on.. for your convenience ; D Hehe! Now please.. enjoy! I bet some of these goodies are unseen by most of you ^__~)v</div>

There were two "teams" of trainees that performed. I have no idea what label they are from, but they're set to debut this year ^__^)/ so please.. 많이사랑해주세요! They did an amazing job both of the teams.. there was this super cool guy in a studded denim vest (denim vests are the bomb!) and he wore a BOY London tshirt, from what I remember.. He was.. well, let's just say he's my bias already! Haha.</div>

Oh look who that is! SS501's Hyungjoon! He's SOOO nice! omg and he held my waist when we took the picture >: D That's probably why my face turned out all derp.. trololol. He told me my Korean was good -sobs- I don't remember if I told you in my original event entry, but he made a girl cry.. haha! He shook her hand and she BURST into tears. The poor guy looked all confused and as I stood next to her, I guess I was the first to get eye contact with him. Haha poor fella. It's okay, I'm sure she meant well.. with.. all the tears.. and the sobbing. Haha</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And lastly.. Some SHINee Key footage! w00t. I have many more pictures (a total of 129 in fact) but I didn't wanna spill it all. Some of it is secret and for me and my friends to enjoy on our cold, lonely nights when we go back to Denmark this summer. Haha!</div>

<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been watching <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.dramacrazy.net/korean-drama/heartstrings" target="_blank">HEARTSTRINGS</a></span></b> for the past week's time. I saw a lot of pics (like <span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyggdvGUoK1qceogno1_500.gif" target="_blank"><b>THIS</b></a></span> one) on <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.heygodareyouready.tumblr.com/" target="_blank" title="follow me if you dare mwahahaha">TUMBLR</a></span></b> and decided to give it a go, and I gotta admit that I was pleasantly surprised. I usually don't like Park Shin Hye (mostly because her characters are always brain dead and spine-less (kinda like "Mary" in Marry Me Mary)) but she is so awesome in this one.. and of course, Yonghwa. You sexy little motherfucker, youuu! His fellow band-mate (CN.BLUE), Minhyuk did a terrific job as well! So cute! Haha. You should all check it out! Actually there's a CN.BLUE fansigning event today here in Shinchon, but fangirls are usually plenty and very aggressive.. so I rarely go to these events. They scare the living shit out of me to be honest. Also you are usually required to have bought the album at the particular store (that the event is taking place in) and then place your receipt in a small box. At the event they will then call your name/information and you can come in and get your CD signed (at least that's what Nezumi told me). It all sounds so complicated. phuu~ T_T I prefer meeting idols at cafés or through my good friend.. all this fuss stresses me out and usually gives a really awkward impression.. I dunno. Maybe I'm just being stupid and picky because I can be.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/n384mx.jpg" width="535" /></div>
Anyway, I guess you're all wondering what I've been up to ever since my last post (which was about 100 years ago), huh? I'm sorry. I've had no motivation nor energy to post. I started going to the gym really late at night, which is super nice! I skipped yesterday though, but I'm going tonight instead. I go 4 times a week and it's really nice. It helps me release a lot of tension and built-up energy (and anger, lol). To tell you all the truth, my mood has been fucking ridiculous lately. Anyway, let's not talk about that..<br />
<br />
I went to the 성훈 (Sunghoon, actor and MCM's main model) fan-meeting in the end of January and it was fucking awesome! But we were kind of "invited" to go there, and there weren't that many people, so it was all good : D We all went out to dinner (me, Kat, Nezumi, the CEO, Sunghoon, his <strike>hot</strike> friend Yohan <strike>who fed me potatoes and whose voice is ridiculously/sexily deep</strike>, some staff members and so on and so forth) afterwards. Ahh! It was a really nice experience ^__^)/ apparently a few of the staff members thought we were celebrities from Denmark because we were there.. o__o lol and some Japanese women came over and gave me a camera. I thought they wanted me to take their photo, but they were just waving the camera at me to ask if I would be in a picture with them. Haha! So cute! So they all took turns to take pictures with me and Nezumi! I guess we looked cool that day : P Hoho!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8524/8457611446_1e4debe7aa.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
We also went on our first trip outside of Seoul! We had these delicious waffles with Hee-Oog (a Korean friend that we met in Denmark) and he invited us to go meet his mother and have lunch at his place : D So cool!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8385/8457611404_f4496db3d7.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
We went to Cheonan! Yes, we did! Road trip was ON and it was super fun! : D We all decided that we're definitely taking the train when we go to Busan. Also, it appears that handsome guys like to go by train ; D Noted, indeed. Hoho!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8522/8457611392_a76a38ddc1.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
We went to his mom's house! She prepared a lovely lunch for us (ddeokguk, nyamnyam!) and tons of side dishes! It was DEEEELISH and his mom loved to talk! Hehehehehee.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8229/8456511629_dfc9c154ed.jpg" style="text-align: start;" title="that's what you get for photobombing my awesome pictures" /></div>
Hee-Oog then took us to this fancy museum-kind-of-place with super pretty buildings and shit. It was awesome.. and super fun! His Danish is yet to improve (열심히공부해야한다고!!!) but his small phrases are so fucking cute.. He ran around and kept putting his coffee cup in the most random places outside the buildings there (cause you weren't allowed to bring drinks inside) and as soon as we finished seeing the exhibition he'd run off for his coffee going "Kaffetid! Kaffetid!" (means "coffee time" in Danish) BAHAHAHA so cute..<br />

I've been wanting to boost my way of living for a while now. I was really sick for a long time and being sick every single month since I got here is starting to piss me off. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8075/8369461834_08078257bf.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /><br />
Bahaha, it looks like Flavia is about to munch on the meat up there!<br />
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8076/8368395667_848d0662bb.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm finally feeling a bit better and yesterday I splurged and bought groceries for about $50+. I bought lettuce, cucumber, plain yoghurt and granola for breakfast, strawberries, dressing, cherry tomatoes etc. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8500/8368395697_e8411ef29e.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Oh and this is my breakfast from this morning. Plain yoghurt, blueberry granola and fresh strawberries. It was delicious as shietttt. THe strawberries were surprisingly sweet : D</div>
<img src="http://i50.tinypic.com/lb2ar.png" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been looking online for a bit to find good recipes and I found this one. I'm a huge fan of fish (not seafood/해물, but FISH) and especially white fish and salmon - so yay! Sadly.. I'm not a huge fan of buying it here in Korea. It's expensive and I'm a huge germ freak, so even if I went to a super market to buy it, I'd be all OCD and weird about others touching my meat. lol. Anyway, I wanna try this recipe (the one above) and maybe supplement with some fresh salad or maybe steamed veggies? What do you guys think? You can check out the recipe for yourself <a href="http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/5872/salmon-and-spinach-with-tartare-cream" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>HERE</b></span></a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, enough of the food-talking. I wanted to share my latest video with you guys! It's been highly requested so.. I did it for you. lol. It's the review of BLOCK.B's first album "BLOCKBUSTER". If you watched my <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXbV9rzeyxA" target="_blank">KPOP HAUL VIDEO</a></span></b> you'd know that I speak very highly of this release. Feel free to check out the video if interested. But be warned.. There's a lot of embarrassing jamming going on in it. lol. Hope you enjoy!</div>

<b><span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;">JANUARY</span></b> x I spent a shit ton of time with <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jeongie.com/" target="_blank">JEONGIE</a></span></b> during January. We did a lot of shopping, celebrated New Years together and yeah.. just hung out a lot in general. She also was the host of the party that we threw to welcome <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.morningmood.net/" target="_blank">ARLENE</a></span></b> to Denmark when she came to visit! ^__^)/</div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>xxx</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;">FEBRUARY</span></b> x This month has no picture for the mere reasons that 1. February sucked for me and 2. I didn't blog at all.. My family had a very close friend taken away from us way too soon and she left this world in the most horrible way one could ever imagine. So yeah, let's leave it at that.</div>
<br />
<img src="http://i50.tinypic.com/2wlssjd.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;"><b>MARCH</b></span> x Yay! I participated in the big demonstration in Copenhagen against ACTA. Fuckyeah, we did a good job! ACTA was cancelled and trashed shortly after. Hoho! Score! I also got my own apartment! :'D Looking at the pictures now I kinda miss it.. -sigh-</div>
<br />
<img src="http://i50.tinypic.com/2isft6o.png" style="text-align: start;" /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;"><b>APRIL</b></span> x I got my first LUSH order in the mail and loved pretty much everything! Except the foot mask.. The foot mask was made of evil and mint. Ouch! I got a lovely care package from Haku and I went home shortly during the month to visit family.</div>
<br />
<img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/vy7imq.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;"><b>MAY</b></span> x I got my fucking awesome DSLR this month and my food porn pics instantly got better! Haha! I also got my first Sigma Beauty order in, finally got my hands on some Makeup Forever products and cooked like a maniac! So much food porn nom nom nom!</div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;">JUNE</span></b> x Uni ended and we flipping ROCKED the event at the National Museum. I worked hard to make a good impression (and a good presentation) and it paid off! I got an A+ and could finish uni that semester with a big smile on my face. I spent my last days in the capital by chilling with friends, eating and doing slumber parties at Dev's house. Good times! Oh, and I met Haku as well! Best month EVER imo!</div>
<br />
<img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/261kxs4.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;">JULY</span></b> x I actually packed up my things in the end of June, but oh well. I moved my stuff to my parents' house and decided to spend my last month in Denmark with them. I helped out a bit around the house, went with my dad to Germany to shop a bit for Gold Cup 2012, cut my hair super short and spent some time with my parents' new puppy! You can barely see her on the pic, but she's actually laying down just in front of Agnes (the white/black one). Ahh~! Shirley's gotten super big already. -sigh-</div>
<br />
<img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/244pg0m.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;">AUGUST</span></b> x August was crazy as heck! I spent a weekend with my entiiiire family at Lalandia in Billund to celebrate my grandma's birthday before leaving. I then packed my shit and left for Korea. It was a long-ass trip (18,5 hours on flight in total) and we were completely busted after that. I got sick within the first 2 days (damn air condition) of being there but oh well.. We did a bit of partying, met some awesome people after moving into the dorms, went to the SM.ARTS Exhibition at CO.EX (where we were interviewed 3 times and where we also saw Ryeowook and Eunhyuk from Super Junior, w00t) and went to see a bit of the PROLEAGUE 2012 games - T1 vs. ACE. Of course T1 won ; D 천찬씨 was an ultimate fanboy that day. Haha! Good times!</div>
<br />
<img src="http://i46.tinypic.com/2ch16ba.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;"><b>SEPTEMBER</b></span> x I don't remember much else than the MCM event from this month.. oh and the concert! I was literally drunk for almost 3 weeks out of this month. It was crazy! I went with friends to see FT Island's show TAKE FTISLAND (it was epiccc!!), went to buy MCM bags and then also went to the MCM x Vogue Korea event the same month. Oh, again.. lots of partying! The pic is me and Caspin aka 내제일좋아하는뚱바보 ♡ ㅋㅋ</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;">OCTOBER</span></b> x In October we made the huge mistake of going to the fireworks festival. It was a beautiful show but the trip home was a BITCH as the nearest subway had been closed and police was surveilling the other two. We had to walk along the highway to find a cab, constantly having to listen to stupid dudes in cars honking and yelling at us in broken English -__-" We luckily found a cab, but ugh.. Never again. Also.. the most amazing release of the year (of any year in kpop really) came out - BLOCK.B's BLOCKBUSTER. I'm still loving the album to bits. Will do a review/unboxing on my <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/heygodareyouready" target="_blank">YOUTUBE</a></span></b> channel for you guys! Just gotta clear my cold first.. T_T</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;">NOVEMBER</span></b> x Argh finals began this month. I spent a shit ton of time with my KLI class and especially Sejon and I went on some epic adventures. He went back to Australia already but oh well~ What else can you expect from a fackin' caaarnt? LOL. I also experimented a bit with my hair color and dyed some of it lilac (I did that in October too, but November's outcome was better imo).. I was also majorly sick during some of the finals. I'm sick now too.. again.. Jeez.</div>
<br />
<img src="http://i50.tinypic.com/xdtlr8.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #04adba; font-size: x-small;"><b>DECEMBER</b></span> x Ahhhh such a crazy month! The holidays made me miss family and friends back home to DEATH and I've had a hard time handling being so far away. I'm dealing with it still, but oh well.. What can you do? I guess this is all part of growing up. Anyway, this month I went to A Walk With(out) the Stars (click <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNuvcpPYlF8" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b> for vlog!), got my first tattoo (read about it <span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.nancakes.org/2012/12/we-love-tattoo-korea.html" target="_blank"><b>HERE</b></a></span>) that I fucking LOVE to pieces, turned 22 and celebrated with a great party with epic friends! :'D They even got me a cake! Ahh~! ♡ It was the best party ever! I later on celebrated a rather sad Christmas Eve with Kat and Nezumi. After that I ended up going to Hongdae and got fucked up (meaning: piss drunk lol). New Years was spent at Nezumi's dorm where we watched Harry Potter, had snacks and just generally had a great time! I also got to Skype with my parents that day.. I actually Skyped with them at 8AM on the 1st of January (time difference) and they were all piss drunk. LOLOL. Good times! I miss them a lot..</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And yeah.. here we are! A lot of my friends left Korea (or are leaving soon) so our paths are separating us yet once again. I gained and lost a lot of friends here already - all part of growing up, huh? It's tough but you learn to live with it I guess. I'm excited to see what the next few months will bring, as our scholarship doesn't allow us to take winter classes. So for now (and until March) I can chill.. I'm hoping for a trip to Japan one of these days! I really wanna go! Maaaybe if I'm super lucky, my trip to Japan will crash with a the GazettE gig. Oh dang, that would be epic! ♡ Hoho!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Wish you all a wonderful 2013</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you so much for all the support during this past year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't wait to share my life experiences with you guys in the new year as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Take care and stay strong</div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">If you've followed me for a while (or just read my info page lol), you'd know that my birthday was yesterday. ^__^)/ yay! I turned 22. I gathered a few pics from the night. Thanks to those of you who wrote me on </span><span style="font-size: x-small; text-align: justify;"><b><a href="http://www.twitter.com/dwaejieolgul" target="_blank">TWITTER</a></b></span><span style="text-align: justify;"> and Facebook!

We went to CHICKEN BUS (치킨버스) for 치맥 (치킨+맥주 = chicken and beer) and it was fucking delicious. 냠냠~! My lovely friends got me a cake! It was super cute even though it was Christmas themed. Haha! Banana and chocolate! Noms!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8077/8295959719_ecf2f1935a.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
We had a shit ton of drinks and I ended up back at my "other home" ESCAPE eventually. Before heading home Winston and I decided it was time for MORE CHICKEN. lol. Then we met some Japanese people (the girl in the pic with me is actually a girl that went to KLI this past semester too - level 2 as well! So cool! Nice to meet you, Marina!) and excuse my fucked up face.. Winston kept throwing drinks at me so I was rather drunk here still. lol<br />

I got money from my grand parents, baby brother, big brother + girlfriend and my parents. Rim gave me a tiny Burberry perfume, Kat & Nezumi gave me a MAC blush (Peaches), Julie gave me a Toblerone and my room mate, Helena, gave me 3 TONYMOLY eye shadows and a nail polish ^__^)/ my parents also gave me deodorants (as they're expensive as shit here) and a coloring book! Hoho~! I like coloring books ok.. they're relaxing to color in and they're just nice ok x__x I got myself the new BLOCK.B 2013 calendar! Hohoho! So nice! I didn't unbox it yet.. I wanna preserve its.. perfection. Haha!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I finally received the package from my parents today (as the front desk failed to inform me that it actually arrived along with another package yesterday... fail fail fail <strike>as always</strike>!) and I'm beyond ecstatic! Yeah maaaaan! I can't open it until sometime tomorrow, though, depending on when my roomie decides to head out so I can record it (as part of an up-coming vlog) in peace. lol. So cute of my dad to mention, that I should make a video of me opening the box so people at home could see too. ♡</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, I wanted to show you guys my tattoo! I got inked monday afternoon (do you guys remember me mentioning going in for a consult?) and I love it! I'm generally a sucker for text/symbol and number tattoos (dates, etc) and I love the colors, font etc. of my new tat so much. I know it's not gonna be everyone's taste, as people have different taste in tattoos as they do piercings, if they even like either of them. However; keep your negative opinion to yourself, as I'm not interested in hearing it at all. Of course if there was a typo, I'd understand your need to tell me (I'm a grammar nazi too) but since everything is spelled correct, I don't need your correction on anything. I'm also aware that a lot of people have not been exposed to a lot of italic fonts throughout their lives and therefore have trouble reading what my tattoo says. lol. I shall put "subtitles" ok, just so you don't get all cross-eyed and confused.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/2sb23gk.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also for those of you having trouble reading it, it says:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">"your conscience is dirtier than money"</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in black and red ink.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: red;">The meaning</span></b> is rather personal to me and really hard to explain, so I won't really go into details too much, however I will give you the main deal: Generally many people are blaming money for everything bad, when in reality they, themselves, would most likely be willing to do anything to get money. So by their "conscience" being dirty, I'm simply saying that human greed is causing a lot of people to act irrationally, even though they're trying to point their fingers. It is also a "misheard" lyric by the GazettE (from the song "<a href="http://www.sweetslyrics.com/474143.the%20GazettE%20-%20Hyena.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>HYENA</b></span></a>" (< I made it a link so you can go see what part of the song I could be talking about~ Hoho!)) that I've grown really fond of over the past 4,5 years. Haha! Oh Ruki.. you and your Engrish ♡</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I got it done in Seoul at <span style="font-size: x-small;"><b><a href="http://www.tattoo-korea.asia/" target="_blank">TATTOO KOREA</a></b></span>. Definitely a place I'd recommend. Don't go to any cheap-ass Korean tattoo place. Many of them aren't legal/authorized to even do tattoos at all and I honestly wouldn't bet my limbs on it, if I were you. I was suggested to go to Hongdae for this one, but I looked it up online and found TATTOO KOREA that way. I wrote them an email about what I wanted, the owner replied and told me to come in for a consult to work on what I wanted. He's a bad-ass dude (who speaks English fluently, w00t) and he and his crew are epic as shit ok. They take their work very seriously and they're super good at what they do. I trust them 100% especially after mine turned out better than I'd expected. TATTOO KOREA even had a guy come in with <span style="font-size: x-small;"><b><a href="http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/c8.0.403.403/p403x403/47277_509943172356779_88674960_n.png" target="_blank">THIS SITUATION</a></b></span> going on (taken from Tattoo Korea's own <span style="font-size: x-small;"><b><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/TATTOO-KOREA/117924678225299" target="_blank">FACEBOOK PAGE</a></b></span>) after he got his tat done in Hongdae. As one of the guys commenting said: "<span style="color: red; font-size: large;"><i>Good tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good.</i></span>" It's that simple. Don't compromise safety, guys. I'm definitely going back to TATTOO KOREA after this one has healed to get my next one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Btw, did y'all see <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jeongie.com/2012/12/new-in-sternum-piercing.html" target="_blank">JEONGIE'S POST</a></span></b> on her new <strike>super sexual</strike> sternum piercing? Hot damn, girl. She has a tattoo as well (okay okay I'm slow, but I wanted to make sure I got exactly what I wanted mhm.) hohoho! I'm one of the cool kids now! : P Admitted... I might go back again in January /snort. I'm sorry, but even while the guy was doing my tattoo, I was already thinking of what I wanted next. Haha! Crazy. The buzzing of that tattoo-thing is nice, alright.<br />
<br />
Also I added a new layout! : D Do you like it? It's featuring JEONGIE!! I mean.. Hyuna. HAHA sorry but I seriously think they look so much alike!</div>

<span style="color: #8e7cc3; font-size: x-large;"><b>hey there</b></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm back! KLI finals are FINALLY over and I miraculously made it to level 3. How did that even happen? LOL I suck so hard at 듣기 (listening) but I passed this time and apparently my teacher felt that I could handle level 3. MUCH studying for me this winter - 퓨~! Thank god I got 3 months (approx.) until next term. I wanted to study this winter too, but due to our scholarship and partner agreement between University of Copenhagen and Yonsei University, we're not allowed to take classes during winter semester. So boo-hoo T_T</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
I put together a vlog of what's been going on lately. I didn't film too much - most of it is from A Walk With the Stars and me showing you guys some shit I bought from TONYMOLY yesterday. :C I will do my best to film more when I go out and about. Hope you like it!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Also, I FINALLY bring some photos from the "A Walk With the Stars"-event which turned out more like a Walk WITHOUT the Stars, lol. It was so chaotic and unorganized. 80% of people took the wrong turn at a crossroad (they were following the idols who weren't told where to go) so the entire event was just fail. We were all given seats during the concert, but people either stood up on their chairs to see or ran up to the stage (which is super rude either way). At least I had fun with my two lovely ladies: Kat and Nezumi who both came with me : D SISTAR, Nine Muses, ZE:A, Infinite and that tiny guy from PSY's Gangnam Style music video came to perform. Nine Muses and ZE:A were supposed to walk with us, but security was HORRIBLE and especially ZE:A were almost CRUSHED by crazy fangirls trying to get to them T_T poor guys! I hope the arrangers of this event learned from it.. the security for the idols (and fans) was ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE and people ran out of their seats to go to the stage while the host did nothing to maintain order. Fail -__-"</div>

<b><span style="color: #76a5af;">STAY SAFE</span></b> (and be careful of the cold/flu)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was super sick all last week and have been suffering from a stupid-ass stomach flu this weekend that makes me wanna throw up everytime I eat -__-" Oh well~! My exams are somewhat over (only got my exam in Politics and Society of North Korea left on dec. 20th) and since I got no re-exams to take, I'm pretty much free to do whatever until beginning of March. lol. Partying, much? Hoho! My parents also sent a package out to me this past Saturday! Hopefully it'll get here fast! : D It'll contain Christmas and birthday presents AND some random goodies so my Christmas won't suck too hard. If you follow me on Instagram (heygodareyouready) you probably already saw my and the girls' Christmas tree! hoho! So tiny but very cute! : D</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
UNTIL NEXT TIME</div>

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">Oh hi there,</span></b><br />
Do you like the new layout? Keke<br />
<img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/2qtjq74.png" style="text-align: start;" /><br />
It's featuring the perfect creation that is Kris from EXO-M.<br />
Ahh, isn't he just wonderful? /wipes tear/<br />
<br />
Ahem~! Anyway...<br />
<img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/x9ija.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I made my way back safely from the fireworks festival held in Seoul last night. Ugh, there were so many people. 150,000 at the very least! It felt as if the entire population of Seoul was gathered at the Han Park. My god, it was horrible getting there and even worse trying to get back. We left the park around 10PM and didn't arrive in Shinchon until around 1AM. We walked around near the highway, were yelled at by idiot Korean guys who felt the need to scream "Wow! Where are you going?", "OH YEAHH" and "HELLOOOOO" at us from their cars -__-" Are you fucking me... So annoying. Anyway, around 11:30 we finally found a cab and after about 1.5 hours in horrible traffic we made it home to Shinchon. /sigh. It was a NIGHTMARE. Traffic was insane as hell. Anyway, I managed to snap a few photos. Sadly the first fireworks photo is the only one in good quality (they're all taken with my iPhone).. Don't ask me why the rest of them suck :C I really don't know. They looked fine on my phone but then like shit when transferred. /sobs. Oh well~~ <br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://i50.tinypic.com/51vyb7.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
Supposedly there was a "Kpop Concert" at 5:30PM. Yeah, not much kpop about that.. Some shitty group named Super Kid(?) and then lots of old people singing sad songs.. don't know what that was about. Kat said that when she was there back in 2010 there were MissA and all sorts of epic groups. But yeah.. the concert this year was SHIT. Utter SHIT.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/mlr3pv.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/23hws9k.png" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
We left before the 4th group came on. it was too bad to bear.. Either way we wasted over an hour waiting for the show to start. Waste of time indeed.<br />
<br />
Instead we went for food! I got a bowl of 참치김치지깨(tuna and kimchi soup) and 치킨돈가스 (breaded chicken filet). The lady first gave me fish O_O" wtf. So I was like "Excuse me, this is not chicken.." she apologized, came back with TWO filets for me and we got a coke for free! SCORE. We made it back in time for the fireworks! Ahh so pretty~!<br />

Only good quality was the first pic T_T Ahh the fireworks were all so pretty tho! I'm scared of fireworks, but they were super far away, so I was okay ^__^" keke.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

I went with Winston to Stephen's parents' sushi restaurant. Ahh~! His parents are so lovely. And his mom called me pretty... T_T; Thanks, but not really. -__-" I was so sick Thursday/Friday and didn't even make it to class on Friday. I've been feeling utterly shitty (as you do, when you're sick lol) but I'm somewhat better today. My lungs just hurt. /sigh. fml.</div>

<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8042/8035238119_e150869538.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
What better way to celebrate getting money.. than spending them? That was exactly my mindset when walking into HOLIKAHOLIKA for the first time yesterday. I wanted to look at stuff for <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.thisismyv.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">KATIE</a></span></b>, but I ended up spending W35.000 on myself. LOL. Sorry Katie.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's what I got:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8170/8035236610_014daa3877.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8179/8035237815_1d7ef35a44.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also went to Watson's, which is where I got the two eyeliners. I lost my beloved NYX Slide on Pencil liner a few weeks ago (obviously when drunk at a club, lol) and since NYX is super expensive here, I wanted to try a new one. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8174/8035236306_8ae97fb481.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I got the <i><b>peripera smoothie waterproof pencil liner</b></i> which also contains small silver glitters. It was the softest, most pigmented black I could find and it was only W7.000! Score! And let me just tell you.. it IS waterproof indeed. I still can't get it off my hand after doing the swatch. Haha!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8171/8035236362_b6bd352ae1.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also needed a new liquid liner as my KissMe Heroine was running low and getting a bit patchy. I was gonna get a new one of the KissMe liner, but I found this one with Lee Hyori on it and since it was WAY more black than the KissMe one, I gave it a try. I haven't used any of the products on my face yet, but I'm definitely excited to!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8461/8035237597_ca96c96c30.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also got a blush brush (which looks more like a powder brush). It looks a bit rough in the picture (not sure why) but it's SUUUPER soft and only W7.000 as well (from what I can remember).. I actually thought that it'd be a bit smaller, but I guess this could work too. If not for blush - then powder, maybe?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8316/8035237653_b307664236.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yay! Lashes! I LOVE my Watson's KISS lashes that were only W4.000 for two pairs, but I keep forgetting what they look like when I'm at the store.. lol, so I got a pair of HolikaHolika lashes as well.. Just to try out! I'm super into this style lately, as they look way more natural than my other ones. I can't find the Gil &... something, lol, that Yinnie got me in China last year. I LOVED those, but yeah.. Where to find? T_T So yeah, I'm trying these : D Pretty, right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8038/8035236496_e8f2936b8a.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Somehow the sales lady talked me into trying this. It's a foam cleanser.. lol. The name.. "JELLY" Hahaha better buy some for all the haters, huh? : P Just kidding.. but it's supposed to be good for my skin. I was looking at another one and she was like "No no get this one. It'll leave your skin much softer bla bla Korean words that I didn't pick up lol bla bla". She seemed really happy that we spoke Korean to her, so she kept blabbering forever and ever. Very nice though, very nice lady indeed! Haha!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8040/8035237933_a4787f8e5e.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now to the best part! BLUSHES! Aren't they just adorable? The colors and packaging.. Ahh~ so nice! I esp. love the lilac color cause it reminds me of my FAVORITE blush ever by e.l.f. cosmetics. It's from their mineral line and it's called "Joy". If you're fair skin, slightly yellow-toned - get it! It's beautiful! I love both of these. They're super soft and only 7,000 per color! I'm probably gonna get all of them. I have a feeling that <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.twitter.com/hollyannaeree" target="_blank">HOLLYANNAEREE</a></span></b> would love these too! Haha! I think there were 5 or 6 colors in total.. I got two of the lightest ones as I'm super pale.. even compared to the Koreans I'm pale. O_O wth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8314/8035236692_5ff610d652.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Last but not least! On the left - FREE SAMPLES YESSSS! Tons of them! Ahh~ I love buying beauty products in Korea.. They always pack your bag with a shit ton of free samples of pretty much anything in the store.. Hoho so nice! I also picked up one sheet mask! Pearl essence - yes please. If you can read Korean, it says 맑은 피부 which basically means "clear skin". But we used to learn 맑다 back in Copenhagen as a word related to the weather ("clear" meaning "no clouds"), so I keep giggling when I see it cause I relate it to "cloud free skin" lol. Stupid, I know.. I like grammar ok. /sobs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway! That's it! I got my next post arranged already! Got a package from home that I wanna show you guys (along with my beautiful BOY LONDON tshirt) and I also got a wonderful present from Kat and Nezumi! An early Christmas present you could say.. ㅋㅋㅋ Have a lovely weekend and to all my Korean residents: </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm sorry it's taken me over <strike>a week</strike> 3 weeks to post anything. As you could probably guess from my last entry, I've been living life to the fullest - my friends (Kat and Annemette) and I were invited to the MCM x VOGUE Fashion Night Out event on the 6th of September and fuckmehard it was amazing! We were personally introduced by our friend to Key (SHINee), Hyunseung (B2st/BEAST) and Hyungjoon (SS501) - we even had pictures taken with Hyungjoon. So so so cool! And he told me my Korean was good /swoons/ HOHOHO~! I don't have the pictures from MCM yet, because they had a pro photographer take them.. so yeah, we're getting them from our friend eventually, I'm assuming. The party was amazing, I met some epic people, got to talk to the vice president of MCM (and omg she is so stylish!!) and had way too much champagne. /sobs. It was fucking amazing though! You probably (if you stalk any of the aforementioned idols (or Jay Park)) saw me hanging in the background of fancams like this one</div>

or yeah.. something like that : P (I'm the girl with the white hair and denim vest (lol))The amount of Key-fangirls was OVERWHELMING and super scary. They were pushy and looked so mean when we were brought inside where he was .___." Please don't kill me ok. Speaking of Key, that guy is BEAUTIFUL in real life. If you think he's attractive in MVs or photos.. please try to see him irl. He's STUNNING. Same goes for all the other idols actually. I've only seen SuJu members Ryeowook and Eunhyuk as being not-as-attractive-irl.. but other than that everyone else looks AMAZING. I was surprised by how good Hyunseung looks irl! So so so so so handsome. I'm so sad his father passed away yesterday.. All my condolences, Hyunseung~ T_T Please don't be too discouraged.<br />
<br />
Other than all that, I've been drinking like a desert for the past two week's time. I've been hungover pretty much all week. Partying non-stop, meeting new people, hanging at Club ESCAPE and Mike's Cabin (in Shinchon.. come say hi!) with my friends and simply just having fun! I had my first uni class on Thursday the 6th (before the event). We were barely there for an hour and then the teacher said "let's not spend all 3 hours today.. I just wanna talk about this class and how there's no class next week. So see you in 2 weeks ok!" LOL. So yeah, no classes until.. well.. 2 weeks after. /sigh. Language school doesn't start until Sep. 27th, so I'm having a dangerous amount of time to kill until then. Which usually ends with me drunk as shit at ESCAPE or somewhere else.. LOL. There was a photographer a few weeks ago there.. I was piss drunk, so if you see any photos from that party, please don't judge me.. -__-" I have no idea how, but I think someone spiked my drink or something. I went from happy and drunk on beer to fucking WASTED so fast, that I can't even.. o__o" So yeah, girls.. be careful ok! Good thing Seonghyuk was there to save my drunken ass and throw some water at me. LOL. He's a good guy! Jun also takes good care of me and their boss is so nice.. So come to Shinchon CLUB ESCAPE if you get the chance. Hit me up somewhere, I'd love to party with y'all! Kekeke.<br />
<br />
Anyway.. yeah.. I guess that's it. I'm sorry that my posts are so sporadic (more like "rare", lol). /sobs. I lost followers T_T /creyz. But yeah, I'm trying ok. I just recently was able to update Instagram as well (heygodareyouready), KakaoTalk is a bit troublesome as well (dwaejieolgul) cause the wifi here is shit.. and yeah.. 3G on pre-pay is just a bad idea. It cost me 30,000 won in 4 days. Not good O_O" Tomorrow is my placement test for language school, so I feel a bit obligated to study. Regardless I think level 2 is OK for me.. Hopefully. Oh damn, if I get into beginner's level I will cry T_T my ego can't deal. Haha!<br />
<br />
^__^)/ Hang in there, guys! I'll post more as soon as I'm settled with everything.. and started classes.. and yeah.. you know. Here are some random photos for you that I didn't bother tagging because my old laptop is slow as fuck and I don't have photoshop on this one.. ㅋㅋㅋ yeah sorry.. I'm a lazy blogger these days.. Maybe a vlog this week? oOooOoo~<br />

I was hanging out with Stephen in Shinchon yesterday and suddenly these kids appeared out of nowhere and started dancing (too sexily...) to Gangnam Style. -__-" Seriously, Korea.. Seriously..</div>

<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8039/8015765027_32611257b6.jpg" /><br />
Me on.. uhh.. I don't know? Friday? LOL. Before getting drunk as well. /sigh<br />
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8180/8015765267_f59f204546.jpg" /><br />
Noms at Stephen's parents' restaurant! SO GOOD!<br />
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8033/8015765411_4d9312ce66.jpg" /><br />
We went to the SISTAR concert too! Their first "real" concert! Mad props. Hyorin is amazing live!<br />

MUCH LOVE YOU GUYS<br />

<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: x-large;">hey guys</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I want to tell you so many things. I have to leave out a lot of details for two main reasons; <b><span style="color: #45818e;">1.</span></b> I promised this incredible person to not speak of him nor what he showed us (that came out wrong, but I promise you it's not gross like that at all. lol) <b><span style="color: #45818e;">2.</span></b> Safety precautions. I already talked a bit about this on FB to my real life friends and those who are a big part of my life on a daily. I won't reveal anything else to you than what I revealed to them. Only my parents know the full details and the people involved. My friends on FB are already trippin' cause they wanna know who we met on that lovely Friday afternoon so badly. lol. I won't tell you, but let's just say that he's incredibly sweet, very talented and <b><i>extremely</i></b> funny.</div>

Anyway, Kat, Nezumi and I went to the MCM store to purchase some of their amazing backpacks. We looked it up online, researched magazines and were so into this that we <u><b>had</b></u> to get them. We had simply planned to go to the store, buy the bags and then go back home and chill.. but oh no, that's not how it turned out. Thanks to Kat's <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><u>EPIC</u></span></b> choice of wearing a BIGBANG tshirt, we were approached by this (what we thought to be a "random") person at MCM. He loved Kat's shirt and suddenly we were taken to a café where we tried a special drink (오마자), then we got to see a lot of super-epic photos of some of his personal friends, we talked about fashion, MCM and even 2ne1! It was so cool! He then took us for a ride in his (epicccc!) car and showed us the area a bit, before we settled down at a super cute café close by. He got us hand-dripped coffee w/syrup and even fed us as we hadn't eaten all day. He treated us like pure royalty and was so good to us. I can't even express in words how incredibly thankful I am! We got to do and see so many things that I wish I could share with you.. but that'll have to wait until after official statements have been made. (Okay, before you guys get all confused and start throwing up rainbows, we did not become trainees. Haha! So don't think like that ok! xD)<br />

Anyway, we hung out with this guy for like 4 hours before we got on the subway home after exchanging numbers and promising to go out for dinner in the neighborhood as soon as we were all free to go. I've never met a person this inspirational and warm-hearted. He took us, 3 random girls, into his world - showed us around, fed us delicious food and sang along to the music at the café with us. Being in his company was so relaxing - he was like a good friend that you'd known for years but hadn't had the chance to see in a while. Spite us being so young, he listened to us, made us laugh and entertained us like there was no tomorrow! And for all of this.. I am so incredibly grateful! :"D</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know that you're probably thinking <i>"Nani wtf just tell us who he is god dammit!"</i> But I won't.. You can have a guess in the comments. LOL. I might tell you if you got it right or not.. ^__~)/ ㅋㅋㅋ</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before leaving you (hanging, haha) I just wanted to share a few pics of my bag, the MCM store and me and the girls outside one of the cafés we were at. A BIG shout-out to our new, amazing friend, who turned a hot, unbearable day into a fairytale for 3 little girls from Denmark. Hoho! <b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-small;">THANK YOU </span></b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-small;"><b>♡</b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Oh, and a second shout-out goes to the staff at MCM. These people are incredibly service-minded and they're super funny! If any of you get the chance, please go there to purchase your MCM stuff! They're SO nice and thoughtful ^__^)/</div>

Korea has been such a wonderful adventure so far. I've been here for 3 weeks and already have I experienced so much more than I have throughout my entire life on this planet. The thought of going to Korea for a year was scary, intimidating and maybe even a little bit saddening. But my god, has it been the best choice of my life! Korea is beyond amazing.. If you know a bit of basic Korean, definitely come here when you get the chance! It'll be amazing, trust me! You won't regret it ^__^)/</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Until next time!</div>

Why hello! Long time no see ^__^" I apologize, but mostly this delay in posts has all been caused by the fact that my dear friends at Shinchon Hostel have serious issues with their wifi. Ugh -__-" Also the whole taking pictures, editing and generally typing up a post is a major hassle when you're moving around. I didn't even have pictures to show you until yesterday, where we went to PROLEAGUE 2012 to cheer for T1 (StarCraft pro-team owned by SK Telecom). We had a blast but FUCK IT'S BEEN SO HOT IN KOREA FOR THE PAST TWO DAYS WTF. We have a blasting typhoon coming tomorrow/during tonight, so I'm staying inside for now O_O" it's 3AM anyway. LOL. I stocked up on cheese bagels and pepsi nex already, so I'm ready for it ok! Anyway, let's talk about StarCraft shall we? Ò__Ó)/ I know ma girl KATIE will go slightly bananas over this, so let's just get to it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7131/7873830926_251bb1f4a5.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We went to uhh.. I don't know to be honest.. to watch the PROLEAGUE games between T1 (the team we cheered for) and ACE (the airforce's SC team (yes, they actually have one - I'll get into why later on.))</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8426/7873830688_9020cd70f9.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The games were shown on this big screen showed above. There were three commentators (ugh the girl was so annoying tho.. -__-") Once in a while the camera guy behind the audience would focus on the audience and it would be shown on the main screen during the matches. I (of all people) got a solo shot. My hair was a hot mess but the Korean girls that had helped us get there thought it was cool and made me look like a rockstar.. O_o okay then. LOL. So nice of them! They were generally super sweet, helped us get tickets, had lunch with us and told us a bit about what was going on. When we first arrived some people were flocking around a banner, writing on it. Turns out that a super good (and quite handsome!) player for the team "KT Rolster" had just died from leukemia 3 days prior to the matches. Before the 3rd match that day they showed a "in loving memory" video of the guy with lots of super nice clips with him playing, hanging with his team mates looking really happy. A lot of the fangirls there cried and were really upset : / So sad.. You can read a bit about his death <b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://esfiworld.com/news/kt-rolster-brood-war-pro-violet-dies-23" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b>. So depressing that someone so young, happy and passionate had to be taken away from his team mates, family and close friends (and fans!) T_T</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8441/7873830344_fb81443c9b.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">This is 천찬씨 being the fanboy that he is with his fav. T1 member!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A few of the T1 members were actually tearing up during the video as well. I later saw some ACE members hanging out with the T1 members, so spite the hard competition, these guys don't seem to hold grudges at all. They all seem like a big family ~ ah! Must be so nice ^__^)/</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8295/7873829958_ce429df6b8.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The winners! T1! They won 3 out of 5 matches. But omfg the last game was so intense. They started out playing StarCraft 1 and won two matches in a row. Then they switched to StarCraft 2 and lost two matches.. Luckily T1's guy won quite efficiently and we all went "FUCKYESSSS!" and cheered like mad! I have no idea how to play, but this shit is addicting as hell ok. You can watch live streamings of StarCraft for HOURS. It's terrible T_T</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8431/7873829620_2f1f80d35b.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is ACE. They lost. They've had some TERRIBLE seasons lately just losing, losing.. oh and losing some more. Actually the air force got their own StarCraft team because this one gamer, who was called in for military duty, was so good, that they let him play while being enrolled.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7135/7873827792_826cf085b9.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And that guy would be this guy. 천찬씨 in epic fanboy mode again. LOL. He was so excited to meet Boxer, which is his "gamer" name so to say. He is now (ironically) a coach for T1 and doesn't have much to do with the players of ACE anymore. However, he's the reason the team started up ^__^)/ quite cool! He's also married to a former (suuuuper pretty!!!) actress who was at the venue as well! Well played, bro.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8282/7873827104_de3c899bd5.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Speaking of girls... I was quite surprised to see exactly how many fangirls these guys have. They play a computergame - and they do it fucking good. But I never expected to see this many girls around ONE guy. After they won, there was a fanmeeting arranged and this guy was dragged off by 4 girls and put in the center of a huge bunch of girls (who apparently were all members of his personal fanclub). Man, it almost made me wanna play too.. LOL. StarCraft is a strategy based game tho.. -__-" Not my strongest personality trait. LOL.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8432/7873828798_d65f7468fa.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>

<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8421/7873829308_669589f5bb.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Inside the small "venue". Cameras, pro lighting, audience, fansigns and even fanchants! Wth. So cool! After T1 won their manager (I was told) was interviewed to let everyone know how he felt about the team winning, if he expected it etc. He was generally very happy and thankful : D Good Korean values!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7135/7873829042_f7d43a8a81.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They also showed the current chart of who's in charge in the PROLEAGUE matches. The 4th team is T1 (who won on this day) and the last name.. well, that would be ACE who are now out of the tournaments. 천찬씨 told me that the top 2 names were as expected as they'd been playing like beasts for a while now! ^__^)/</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The view from outside where we were waiting for the teams to come out (mostly waiting for Boxer, lol) in the frying heat.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thanks to 천찬씨's friend (and her friends as well) for helping us find our way there, get tickets, eat lunch with us and help us track down both T1 and Boxer! ^__^)/ So nice of you guys! (천찬씨's looking derp cause I told him to do aegyo too and he was like "dude u stho geyyy" lol.)</div>

Food noms after the games! We were starving and super tired. Such a long, hot-as-balls day. I FINALLY got my wish and we went for 샤브샤브 (shabeu shabeu) which is a kind of broth that you put all sorts of shit in, you let it cook, eat it, get noodles or rice that you mix into the remaining broth, you eat that and then you feel sickeningly full for the next 3 days. LOL. It wasn't that great, sadly. :C the broth was bland, the meat was frozen and dry and yeah.. not as expected. /sobs.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
But it was much fun! ^__^)/ and afterwards we went to look at laptops (cause Mikko needs a new one, as his old one died O_O) and then we went into a bookstore. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I FOUND JANG GEUN SEOK IN THE BOOKSTORE. YAY! *adds to album of epic JGS ads* I wanted to look at manhwa (Korean manga) but ended up buying two volumes of Fullmetal Alchemist (in Korean) that I didn't have at home and two CD's. Dammit -__-"more CD's.<br />

Thanks for reading! : D</div>

I'll try to be less sporadic about the posts from now on.. but ugh. I don't experience that much worth blogging about. G-Dragon's new single "ONE OF A KIND" came out (and people are calling him racist for being tan and having black kids in his video, lol) but the album/single hasn't come out yet -__-" So annoying. Anyway, if you wanna watch it, here it is:</div>

Stay well and don't go out in the typhoon later today ok! O__o"</div>

<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7269/7795757554_062cd504c3.jpg" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We finally made it! No rain - but tons of hot-ass sun and humidity. Ugh! We went on the metro from Idae to Samsung st. to get to COEX at a decent hour and we hung out there for more than 3 hours. The exhibition is a MUST-SEE for any SMTOWN fan. Honestly! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7250/7796054214_5607e8383e.jpg" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At the entrance you can choose between two kinds of entrance passes - The "Pink" one for W25.000 (approx $25) or the "Silver" pass for W85.000 that comes with a luxury bag packed with goodies. We got the 'regular' pink ones as we didn't feel like spending that much on a bag with stuff that would be a hassle to drag around -__-" Unless you're a hardcore fan - the pink card is a pretty sweet deal (we got goodies on our way out too; a package of babywipes, pencils and a poster!) anyway..</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
There aren't TOO many things to see in there, though. When you first enter, you walk past a huge photo on the wall of all the idols posing (on your left hand) and a hologram (on the right) of all the stars walking the red carpet with you, waving, smiling and some of them are even pulling funny faces! ^__^)/ it's super cute! There are a few different areas (you will most likely get a 'map' from one of the staff before you enter) where you're NOT allowed to take pictures: The 3D Panorama show (which is epic!), the fan art section (which has dope-ass SNSD fanart on auction!) and the Live Hologram show w/SHINee (which is epic as well!). Photos are OK to take at the other places. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the things that occupied me, Kat and Nezumi for quite a while were all the card-board cutouts of idols that were placed here and there. They were apparently true-to-size and can I just say... SNSD ARE SO TINY. LOL. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
We later <b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">saw both Eunhyuk and Ryeowook from Super Junior at the event</span></b> (they came by the exhibition to check it out.. yes, the REAL idols were there!) and those guys are short as fuck irl anyway. Oh well, they were impossible to get decent shots of. We randomly found out they were there cause people were lining up around the small stage where the robot shows are supposed to take place. If you wanna be somewhat sure to get a good shot of idols, hang out that area around 1PM-3PM. Ryeowook and Eunhyuk showed up around 1:30PM and I noticed Amber (f(x)) updating her twitter the other day around 4PM after having been there as well. So yeah, stay tuned at that spot! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8431/7796053768_79650d6c55.jpg" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Near the entrance there's a small booth with tons of cardboard cutouts where you can get a note and write a small letter to your favorite idols/groups. I wrote one for EXO-M, Kat wrote for both EXO-M and EXO-K and Nezumi wrote for SHINee ^__^)/</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8433/7796053458_4ef8652fa1.jpg" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hoho! My note is super secret! : P</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8296/7796054000_6431d59596.jpg" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are also booths where you can "take pictures" with idols, do idol puzzles and win prizes, do karaoke, listen to backstage stuff from the Live Hologram show/3D show etc. In the middle of the room there's a huge cylinder with music videos running. The screens in the background have music videos as well.. The playlist included DBSK "Keep Your Head Down", SHINee "Sherlock", SNSD "The Boys", f(x) "Electric Shock" and EXO-K and EXO-M "Mama". They could've made a longer playlist imo :C but it was awesome to see the idols in HD ò__Ó)/ hoho!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We also talked to a girl who worked at the everysing stand. She got our KakaoTalk IDs and wanted to hang out next week - if we even hear from her, we're gonna go to Itaewon and such to eat and chill. ^__^)/ she was super sweet! She said that she saw a lot of idols on a daily basis because she lives in the area, where a lot of TV broadcasting stations and entertainment companies are located. She also said that G-Dragon isn't very nice in person and that DBSK are SUUUPER handsome irl ; D She and I agreed that Ryeowook and Eunhyuk really.. were.. not... very pretty today. LOL. And they wore SO MUCH makeup wtf! And yeah, short as fuck too. She also said that the dear EXO-K rookies walked super gangster-like and that it looked really funny. Hahaa! So yeah, bonus info for you : P the way Kai seems to walk backstage is how he really does walk to show off at events. LOL. Kai you derp.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Generally it was a great experience! I was interviewed 3 times, taken pictures of, recorded on video by MBC etc. Ugh, being a foreigner in Korea is hard work LOL. It was loads of fun tho, even though the hall was SUPER hot! We got free fans (which was nice) but me still being sick and the hall being hot.. yeah, sweaty and tired-looking me in all photos :C Anyway... if you have the chance; definitely go check it out! It'll satisfy your inner fangirl quench! Haha ^__^)/~ Get it get it, fans! It's definitely worth it if you can go with a fellow fan or two in your group of friends.</div>

<span style="color: #8e7cc3; font-size: x-large;"><b>Hello everyone,</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm back with another entry, this time written in the basement/hangout-area of our hostel. It is POURING down atm., so our plans of going to the SM.ART's exhibition are put on hold for now.. So far we "only" missed seeing Taemin (SHINee), EXO-M & EXO-K and Amber from f(x). Fuck my life so hard right now.. LOL. We're going tomorrow tho, since we have to go to KLI anyway to fix some paperwork for KLI classes. So we'll see how the weather behaves tomorrow (please stay dry!). It's monsoon season in Korea atm, so when it rains.. it really fucking rains. Thunder and lightning usually join the party as well. /sigh. Damn weather.. At least it aint as unbearably hot today as usual. It's humid - sure, but not as suffocatingly hot. I also, speaking of hot, got my hands on Korean cold medicine - MY GOD DOES IT WORK WONDERS. I feel a LOT better, I don't have a fever anymore and I don't feel as generally shitty as I've been feeling for the past 3 days. Yay! Ironically tho.. Kat and Nezumi are feeling quite sick now. Haha! Glad it ain't me, mofo! Or well, I'm not 100% well, but now I just need to keep taking the medicine and then pamper my stuffy nose. That should fix it : D Weee!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, you all (and I mean ALL.. never have I had as many hits on ONE specific post as I did my last one, wth you guys.. such Kpop-obsessed fangirls you are!) probably came her to see photos of sexy stuff. Can I just say though.. hot Korean guys - sure, there are some. But they're as easy to come by as hot guys in my own town.. Or well, there are NONE in my own town and quite a few here.. But still, you get the drift. Not ALL Korean guys are hot. Just bursting the bubble for you.. so don't come here expecting to find SHINee-oppas all over the place. (LOL. If you can call all of SHINee oppa, you're too young to come here for that anyway..) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I found more of Jang Geun Seok for my Finding JGS project-thing! : D Oh, and as I was editing the pics for this.. the entire basement area got pretty much flooded.. DAMN YOU RAIN :C<br />
Anyhoozle! Photos! : D </div>

Okay.. from now on JGS on albums/stickers don't count -__-" only ads ok. ONLY ads. /slaps self/</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On Monday we went to Myeongdong, which is a super popular shopping area in Seoul. I gotta say that there were a shit ton of Japanese people. O_O" We went to Yonsei Global Lounge first (to fix some paperwork that apparently fucked up.. but maybe didn't fuck up afterall. lol. We don't know) and we met the lovely Rim there. She spoke super good English and talked to us for a while. She figured that, since my hair is (apparently) epic, I should totally join a band. LOL. She also had trouble pronouncing "Line" so she decided to just call me Jang Geun Seok from now on BAHAHAHAH so epic! I love you, Rim! I really do :"D Anyway, she hung out with us for a while as she awaited answer from KLI and then we all agreed to go for kalbi next week. YES, LET'S GO! Rim is fucking awesome ok. She studies business and media law or something (all sorts of laws within business and media - like copyright etc.) and as said; her English = epic. Anyway, after Global Lounge we went to Myeongdong to do some shopping and to look for JGS, of course ^__^)/ wahaha!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before actually shopping, we needed food. I hadn't eaten dinner the night before and my fever was killing me. SO FOOD TIME. Kat and I shared the food on the pic above - dalkkalbi (chicken ribs). SO GOOD. Spicy, but good. And we were STUFFED afterwards. Noms!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8436/7786064090_2ebd2b6b0a.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SHOPPING TIME! I spotted an Evisu, and from what I could recall BIGBANG used to endorse them.. lol, my memory sucks. Sadly 2pm apparently endorse them now.. but whatevs. What I remembered as BIGBANG was actually DBSK. LOL. So I like to think of it as me helping out the old DBSK and not 2pm. >__> /coughs/.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Music! yes, can't go to Myeongdong without buying music, now can we? Nope nope nope! Off we went to 2 music stores.. and ugh I got a free Jay Park poster! OH YEAHHH~! And Block B AND JANG GEUN SEOK NOMS NOMS! ^__^)/ ~ I tagged both Jay Park and JGS on twitter :C but they didn't retweet me supporting their asses. BSH.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7268/7786064226_01e3116327.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After Myeongdong we went to Dunkin' Donuts! I was sick as fuck and felt utterly horrible tbh. This was all Monday and I didn't get my meds (lol, addict) until yesterday. /sobs. I was looking and feeling extremely horrible, I was tired, exhausted and super thirsty. I went for a drink that I thought was gonna be sweet and yums.. but no, it was bitter and disgusting as hell so I was even more discouraged than before. however, the cappuccino-sugar-coated-donut-thing (you can't really see it for Kat's orange drink) was DELICIOUS. NOMS.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7137/7786064412_c5b29aba3b.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moving on to yesterday, we simply strolled around Shinchon, bought a few things and hung out. I love this area. It's super chill and people are so nice. The ahjumma (older lady) at our local market thought I said "annyeonghikaseyo" (안녕히가세요 - please go well (said by the person staying)) when I left the store. So she corrected me.. which would've been great if it wasn't for the fact that I DID say "annyeonghikyeseyo" ('안녕히계세요' said by the person leaving)... The problem is that because of my cold, I sound so incredibly nasal that you can't even tell what I'm saying anymore. LOL. Poor me and poor ahjumma. :C /sobs. Having a cold totally sucks.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8287/7786063348_ebc6a3fe8c.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I bought some Nature Republic goods to support JGS : D Haha lol. I'm not even kidding. I will probably spend up to 50% of my money each month at this place. The stuff there looks so nice.. and JGS endorses it.. so yeah :C The shampoo is from Watson's btw. And you get so many free samples and goods from NR when you purchase there... sadly.. no JGS cardboard figure for me. -__-" haters. bsh.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8439/7786063886_44f24d9648.jpg" style="text-align: center;" /></div>
Oh, and here is my dinner from last night. The tuna sandwich-thing in the front was disgusting. Ew.. but I had to eat something with my medication, so yeah.. ugh.. it was gross tho.. not doing that again T_T;</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8281/7786063120_8096abdc1f.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and lastly.. CUTE SOCKS<br />
I got the penguin ones for mylady and the other ones for myself. HOHO!<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Also, I really haven't been drinking too much soda here. Their equivalent to Pepsi Max (Pepsi Nex) is disgusting and I hate Cola Zero so much.. So yeah.. I mostly drink water and vitamin water. Btw, you can actually get shampoo and shower gel by the vitamin water brand here O_O quite strange really. The Koreans sure love their vitamin water goods. LOLZ.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, that's it!</div>
Hope you're all well! Don't be a fool and catch a cold like me :C<br />
And don't go out in the streets in the pouring rain wearing flipflops.<br />
... cause you will trip and fall! LOL.<br />
<br />
Until next time!<br />
Maybe I get some epic photos from SM.ARTS tomorrow! WOOH!<br />
We'll see!<br />
MUCH LOVE<br />

Hi guys! I finally made it to Korea. We arrived late afternoon/early night yesterday and we were so tired. Those 18.5 hours on a plane + 3 hours of waiting in Singapore.. ugh, it sure took its tore on me. /sobs. Anyway, we've been up early today to check out the area : D I bring with me a few shots from Korea (+1 from Copenhagen Airport). Hope you like them! Don't mind the tons of Jang Geun Seok porn ok. I made it a mission to find him EVERYWHERE and take pictures of all ads and goods he's on. It's a damn Jang Geun Seok paradise in NATURE REPUBLIC over here. SO... MUCH.. JANGGEUNSEOK. NOMS NOMS NOMS. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The weather is insane tho.. O_O like wtf. 27-30 degrees celsius and HUMID. AS. FUCK. ughhh! I don't understand how 1. People live here and 2. People don't sweat. I feel like the grossest person ever cause I'm sweating like a sumo wrestler on fire. Seriously wtf. How do Koreans not sweat? Is it some sort of genetic mutation? TEACH ME YOUR WAYS.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I was gonna type and publish this Monday, but I did the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.nancakes.org/2012/06/hallyu-comes-to-denmark.html" target="_blank">EVENT POST</a></span></b> then and I didn't want this post to take away focus from that or be neglected.. lol. So here it is! Hope you're all well : D I moved back to Jutland Tuesday.. so now I'm back where I started (so to speak). I miss the capital so much (and especially my lovely friends there).. Jonathan went back to Jutland by now as well and Nezumi is back at Falster around Friday :C blegh. I will probably see them during July (going to Dev's house for movies and to the Embassy for my visa).. so hopefully that'll work out : D Anyway.. what I've been up to!</div>

Okay.. so after the event Sunday Dev, Gavin, Kat and I went out to Beijing to eat with HAKU! The weather was fucking horrible and I just recently discovered two HUGE rips in the sole of my left shoe.. T_T I have no idea how the fuck the holes got that crazy, but my shoes drew in water and my left foot was fucking SOAKING. Sucks sucks sucks hard. It was my last trip to Beijing before moving to Jutland btw :C so sad! Anyway, both Gav and Dev came to say goodbye to me before I left yesterday and Nezumi even came to help me with packing! Shout out to Sopheeeeeeeee for coming to say goodbye too! T_T I miss them all so much already.. /sobs alone/</div>
