today is stay home day:D
with a 2 hours driving session w my daddy.
drove and learnt everything again. u- turns, and those new stuff that schools dont teach.
driving at difficult multi storey carparks.
cux i think i arent talented>.<~ so must learn everything.
and the troublesome parking!!! parked three times till it rained:((

now waiting (v) impatiently for my shows so a blog entry so i can kill some time.
hehehe.

i shall recap those days in korea(:
yes, those days were 4 months ago.
time really flies.
and i am have 1 entry on day 1 in korea.

so there is the 2nd day- skip it ok!
its for self memories:D

the second day was spent at myeondong- da shopping heaven of seoul.
before that, had some drinks at ediya coffee and then donuts.
shopping time!
go there, and be amazed by the rows of facials shops available.
but dont go crazy like me and shihua.
cux then you have to carry them ard.
we bought like mad woman, and then got ourselves so hungry.
dined at mr pizza(:
niceeee, but then we could only finish half of it. so much for "pizzas for ladies".

too tired to carry on shopping, so we went to paris baguette near our guest house to buy breakfast and drinks for dinner.
the awesomeee holidays that is plain awesome.

BBQ at xinyi's place.

chitchatting session till midnight before we left.

& on a fine morning- real early morning.
the usuals and the great.
egg benedict, with a tad too little hollandise sauce.
prive does a more awesome dish but epicurious makes it up with the ambience.

baked eggs with toast soldiers sounds normal and i expected a normal dish.
but but, it came with cheese on top, bacon and mushrooms inside.
bacon and eggs with cheese must be best friends!

i used to think carrot cake as ewww.
but someone converted me(:

Lunch at fosters.

i miss writing in this space.
as that day passed, i realised we have lesser and lesser time spent together.
is it that reason why i stand all your nonsense, smiling at the most ridiculous thing you do..
i should get angry i know. but you never fail to make me smile.
all the ideas that you fill me with, even imagining it is so beautiful(:

you make me feel special. you own a special place in my heart.
with you, i learn to treasure.
