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!

[REVIEW/FAN ACCOUNT] Xia Junsu Solo Concert

This is a review. A very laid back open personal review on the concert... maybe I should actually call it a fan-account... but I am going to be critical about it so... I shall call it a review. A review on Kim Junsu or Xia Junsu's solo concert. Yes. Anyways we arrived at around 2:30 at the venue and there were a lot of people already. Never underestimate Junsu fans. First thing first, we decided to get our fan goods. There was a total of 9 goods that you could buy but to be honest most of them look tacky and the only thing I wanted was a light stick and possibly a slogan because they looked classy. The line up to buy the goods was very long. So they tried to make it shorter by lining up everyone with 4 people per row. The weather was hot and it was a good thing those who were part of the Junsu's fan club started handing out small Junsu fans. I am so glad because although they were small, it helped quite a bit with the heat. Fan goods! The concert didn't start until...

M! Countdown + JJ PROJECT!!!

So... today. I decided to not go to class at all because I needed to see JJ Project's debut stage in person. Yes. I went to see this performance in person. It was completely worth it! JJ Project had a pre-recording, so it was nice to have their debut stage with only their fans. The time that was indicated on their fan cafe was at 9:30 but my friend and I came at around 8:30am. We got our numbers after sending in our names to the fan manager and I was originally number 15 but when it was time to line up again at 11:00, I was pushed up to number 11! We were given blue JYP wrist bands and the fan managers wrote our numbers on it. They also handed out the fan chants, a temporary large JJ Project banner AND they handed out a stamp card. The stamp card is really motivating me to go and see them for every performance. I brought my own and good thing we were allowed to use them. (Since some fan clubs are more anal about it then others.)    We got inside around 11:30 but we ...

Seoul Grand Park Zoo

Last weekend I actually did something interesting... at least on Saturday. We went to Seoul Grand Park, especially to the Zoo. It is located in the southern part of Seoul and the park is really a Grand one. The zoo, as well, was really really big. It was really cheap to get into as well. Only 3000KRW! We couldn't go around the whole zoo because it was a Saturday meaning there were a lot of people! I could walk and be at the zoo all day but with that many people at the same time, I had my limits. Being in Seoul made me realize how much I did not like being squished in between people. my roommate took the picture! ^^ Statue in front of the Ape Jungle! It was the 6 of us going to the Zoo this time. So we made our priorities on which animals we wanted to see and went there first. The zoo was humungous and was smartly divided. All similar species were together, or the animals that live together in real life were bunched together. Each section was themed. It was really cool! We wen...
