Insadong

I have neglected or more like gave up in updating my blog. However lately I have the urge to write! Type and deleted post on Facebook and Twitter...I guess my blog is the best place to put down my thoughts. 

So, ya HELLO! *clean up spiderweb and dust* 

Korea, a city where I would like to study and work at. I love its culture, maintaining traditional and modern elements in their architecture. Brilliant! 

Insadong is a place where a tourist must visit in Seoul. This is where you buy souvenirs that represent Seoul. It is filled with antique shops, art galleries, traditional stationery shops,  handicraft shops, potter and porcelain shops, bookstores and art supply stores. It is the home to many traditional restaurants and tea houses. 




















Ssamziegil was designed in such a way that it connects alleys in spiral-like stairway. You can get a clear view of the sky as you do your shopping.
















Love this area as it has traditional touch to its architecture. You can imagine there are people wearing hanbok at market place back in Joseon era :)

Direction: Anguk station, 15 minutes walk from station

Red Soul, an acapella group from Seoul, Korea. Thanks to Mei Fenn for introducing them to me. Their vocal makes you go "awwww~hou lam!" Too bad I can't make it to their events in Malaysia. Hope they will be visiting Malaysia soon or see them in Seoul in October! ^^ Here's one of my favourite songs from the latest mini album :)

Rabbit, your Chinese 2013 horoscope shows that you're going to want to jump around this 2013 year of the black Snake. In some ways, this will work in your favor. In others, it won't. it's up to you to take the special care needed to ensure that you're making wise decisions. You have a tendency to forget that your actions don't just affect you this 2013 year of Snake, but will affect you in the future.   2013 horoscope - The Rabbit In Love  If you're a Rabbit who's currently in a relationship, then your Chinese 2013 horoscope shows that you may want to start a new relationship this 2013 year. That doesn't mean you should though. Of course, on a case by case basis it may be for the best. But before you make any rash decisions, think long and hard about your relationship and make sure you're making decisions for the right reasons - not just because you're bored.  Single Rabbits would do well to stay that way. You're feeling flighty in 2013 ye...

Yes, I wish I could just close my eyes and ears, run away for a long vacation.  A LONG LONG LONG VACATION. I should be appreciating my life now as I'm still breathing. I know, I know...but I'm not enjoying my life at all. So much so of "Go for your goals!", "Live your life like there's no tomorrow", "As long as you work hard, you can reach out to your dream". Well, I don't see that coming at all. A simple question, person A's dream is to travel around the world. He/she works hard to save money for the trip, but could he/she just leave the family and quit the job and start traveling? How many of you have the courage to do so? As for now, I really want to quit my job but I can't do it because I have debt to settle. Ahh...I don't know. I just don't like to work in the current company. I have been watching various dramas at office when boss is not around. I don't see any growth or experience gained from the current job...
