Hockey blues

So... this week has been sort of a down time. Monday, my friend's family went back to their country and my friend from Canada is only arriving in Seoul tonight. In between that, on Tuesday, we went to see the korean version of the "Catch Me If You Can" musical. My experience with Catch me if you can is through the movie and the musical soundtrack from youtube. It was a really good musical! However the lead that was playing Frank was an idol and his vocal abilities wasn't up to par with musical style singing. Although he was better than I expected but it was still not completely there. The acting and dancing was good though! I really enjoyed watching it, even though it was all in Korean, with Japanese subtitles on the side, it was fantastic. Watching youtube clips of the Broadway version, listening to OBC musical soundtrack and reading the english synopsis before hand really helped though in understanding the musical.
On Wednesday, I had to go to a 9 AM class even though it was a school holiday due to the elections. We had to make up a class that was missed due to the teacher's misunderstanding. Long story but anyways it was a 3 hour class. Long and boring but in the end the teacher treated us to lunch and it was nice. The rest of the day, my roommate and I decided to be lazy and chill in our rooms. For dinner, we had pork belly BBQ and went to Karaoke.
Today! I finally got to stream and watch a little bit of the NHL playoffs! For the past week, I have been itching to watch NHL but just never had the timing right. Today though, although this is not highly suggested to everyone, I was streaming live hockey during one of my morning classes today.... and continued to stream the hockey game when I came back from class. It was a really boring class, in which the teacher babbles on from what the powerpoint slide in which he will later send to us. So the purpose of us being in the class? Attendance points! yay! anyways it was nice to watch Hockey again.... well until the Canucks lost... I hope they do better in the next game! So in disappointment, I decided to cut and change my hairstyle! No more front straight bangs, hello side bangs! Although it looks like I have straight bangs still... lol.
Well, tomorrow, is my roommate's birthday, so we are probably going to go out and celebrate it after classes are finished. The weekend? probably hang out with my friends who came from Canada and probably do another Seoul tour with them or something.
Next week has a lot more interesting things going on. 2 music shows and a concert! yay!

Transfer and Communication

So, I arrived in Seoul after a long 14 hour trip. 14? maybe even 15. The layover in Shanghai was brutal to say the least. Well the flight to Shanghai itself was brutal as well. First, there was no tv like i'm used to on long flight travels. Second, My laptop wasn't fully charged, so I couldn't even use it for long as I was saving it for the layover. Third, Food/service on the plane wasn't that great. I got 2 meals and some sort of sandwich snack. Also, I told you yesterday about gate checking in my guitar? Well, that didn't work out well. At least they let me put it in the overhead compartment besides it being a full flight. However, I sat beside a really nice person who helped me. The flight attendants were not really good at understanding English, so the person beside me helped me ask the flight attendants what to do and etc. So the 12 hr flight to Shanghai was brutal with me fighting to sleep or staring into nothingness, attempt at conversation to the perso...

Osaka! Takarazuka! Junsu?

So where do I begin? Last time I told you I was going to update in Japan but I ended up not doing that because on the flight to Japan, I made friends with the person beside me. We somehow connected in conversations during the flight over that, before she had to move on to Shanghai, thought we should chill together a little bit more. (Which reminds me that I need to e-mail her). Anyways, the flight over to Korea eventually was uneventful besides the turbulence in the beginning, well landing in Japan was very turbulent as well. The weather was not great at that time to say the least. Landed safely and I was happy to see that my friends had came to pick me up. Keeping it Korean style, decided to take a picture of my arrival/reunion. We caught up with each other on the way to the friend's place I'm staying at, and it really felt surreal for me to be back in Korea. It was nice and welcoming at the same time it was... yup I'm in Korea... kind of reaction. Since my plane lande...

A lot has happened

so a lot has happened since i last wrote. Kojokan's girls track and field team got 1st and 2nd place in the marathon relay. And the boys got 2nd place in the marathon relay yesterday. The band club went out for some fun at a bowling alley. That all went well. The sports festival went well. Running with a flute is really really difficult i must say. Then I went out with some friends and such. Studying times are getting hard. Now I am starting to get homesickness why? mainly because my school's 2nd year students are going to Canada in December for one week. that's all they talk about. Aaaa My bike had a flat tire so I had to walk with my bike home. Kinda tiring but the next day it was okay. Lately I have been in a rut. Friends are making me choose between them. Music club friends or class mate friends. I hate having to choose. urgh. The worse situation in the world. Himeji went well. Went Karaoking, saw Himeji castle and ate some really good food. Nice to meet them again. I w...
