Day 40: 06 October, Sunday

Its the 40th day of me being in Korea! 40 days isn't too long but it isn't short either and I'm glad that I'm just another day nearer to going back to Singapore!

I'm not really homesick but I just miss my family, my friends, the convenience of travel and speaking, and the food! Really can't wait to go back to Singapore.

Anyway, today morning was plans-free. So we woke up own time own target and then went to have lunch. Those that wanted to go for lunch met up while the rest stayed at the dorm. So the girls and Taiquan went to that Kimbap shop again to eat the best food we can find there: cheese ramyun. :P

Yes and we all ate cheese ramyun (except for Yixin who ate Omelette Kimbap) and it tastes extra delicious because we asked for extra cheese! We tried Tuna Kimbap too but we didn't like it because there was mint leaves. The owner was very nice though and after lunch at 1pm we went back to the dorm at 2pm to meet Jinhyun oppa for bowling!!

It was the eight of us, Jinhyun oppa and his friend, Sunghoon oppa who went for bowling. The bowling place was about ten minutes walk from our dorm so we walked there. Yixin wasn't playing cos she hasn't recovered from her ankle injury so the nine of us randomly split into three teams and we agreed that the second round will be the deciding round on who will treat drinks!

Left to right: Yvonne, me, Jinhyun oppa

Left to right: Sean, Cheryl, Sunghoon oppa

So Round One, the teams were split as such:
Team A: Adrial, Meihwa, Me
Team B: Cheryl, Yvonne, Jinhyun oppa
Team C: Sean, Taiquan, Sunghoon oppa

And we ranked all nine of us according to their final scores from round one and split us up evenly. The teams for round two were as such:

Team A: Sunghoon oppa, Cheryl, Sean
Team B: Jinhyun oppa, Yvonne, Me
Team C: Adrial, Meihwa, Taiquan

So we agreed that the team in third place must buy drinks for the first team, whereas the second team can just get drinks for themselves (meaning third place doesn't get any drinks!)

So... Everyone played pretty well and it was such a fun time. The results?

First: Team C
Second: Team B
Third: Team A

How is it possible when Sunghoon oppa was the best player? Because he gave Team B 44 handicap points and Team C 50 handicap points... If we played without the handicap points, the results would have been reversed.

Nonetheless it was a great experience playing with the korean guys because apparently they are very good at it (they even have secret skills haha). We proceeded to Etude House to get some facial products (just the girls actually) and then went to Noraebang!

We paid KRW$1,000 each and were entitled to 1 hour but the owner told us he would give us 2 hours as service (because Cheryl & Yvonne come often). So when the timer starts counting down to its last 10 minutes, the owner added 30 more minutes for us! We were super elated so we continued singing and when the same thing happens (ie. when the timer starts counting down the last 10 minutes), the owner added another 30 minutes! We were shocked but excited so we continued singing and until it happened for a third time, that's when we decided this would go on for ever and our throats hurt, stomachs are hungry. So we left after 3 hours. Hahaha. SGD$1 for 3 hours of kbox. Where to find. xD

So we all splited for dinner. Taiquan and Sean didn't join us at Noraebang so they had dinner on their own; Cheryl and Yvonne went back first after noaraebang while the rest of us went to get dinner. We stopped by this roadside stall and because we were hungry (or at least I was hungry) everything looked so nice so I kinda spammed myself with food for dinner! Deokbokki, Corndog, Chicken Cutlet and more! It was a fulfilling dinner but it was also when I was reminded of my 54kg weight and my growing tummy so I promised myself to restrict my diet from tomorrow onwards! We shall see how it goes. :)

So its Monday tomorrow and I just spent the rest of my night in the PC room doing my homework... Have a great week ahead everyone!
