fun times and delicious foods~

I realize it’s been quite a while since my last post, which is mostly because I’ve just been really busy in every way. It’s been freezing cold lately; the other day the temperature went down to -17 degrees Celsius..! walking outside, it felt like my face was gonna fall off, and I definitely couldn’t feel neither my fingers nor toes. please come a little sooner, will you Spring??

Last week I had fun with my friends pretty much every day; going skating, bowling, singing karaoke (three days in a row!), playing Wii-games in multiroom, eating delicious foods, sitting in coffeeshops either studying or just chatting etc. I had so much fun to the point that when Sunday came, I was almost exhausted haha..

This is called Bossam, and it’s super yummy. The kimchi there is amazing!!

At the ice-skating rink.

Karaoke time! usually we go to a place that looks much nicer than this one though.

Bowling with some of my classmates~ me, two other girls and one guy. The guy was the one who suggested we’d go bowling, and the rest of us agreed even though neither of us didn’t have much of a clue about how to bowl. It ended with him having to buy all three of us girls coffee afterwards, because we won a bet about beating his score in the second round (all three of us girls’ scores against his haha).

On Saturday the weekend before that, I went to Baiwei’s house again, and we had a lot of fun! As usual his mom cooked lots of delicious chinese food for us, we watched a really nice korean movie together, played some games on his computer, before deciding to go out for a little walk.. which ended in a 45mins long walk to E-mart where we bought ice cream that we ate while looking around. I found a little childrens’ book called “The little Prince” which I never had the chance to read when I was younger, so I’ve been wanting to read it since a long time ago. Thought it was a nice idea to read it in korean! so far it’s quite interesting.

This week I’ve been super busy studying for midterms, which I had yesterday and the day before. I’d say my exams went really well, even though I could’ve probably done better on the listening exam. I managed to catch a cold a week ago so I was really not feeling very well during a couple of days, however I forced myself to go to school since it wouldn’t be smart to miss a class right before my exams. Yesterday I took a long nap after coming back from school, then took a nice walk outside with Baiwei right before it got dark, went shopping with Yijing and two other mutual friends, then the four of us had dinner at the chicken place in the second floor of the building where I live. So yummy, but we ordered a lot more than we could actually eat, so we got the rest packed for take-out (this will be my dinner today haha).

A coffeeshop where I went with my classmates last week for planning our class discussion. Anyways, the guy working there gave us two slices of cake and a giant cookie as service~! such a nice surprise, and it all tasted delicious!

Enough of my rambling for now~! I’m gonna watch a few episodes of a really exciting korean drama series, eat dinner, and go to bed a little early. I’m still quite tired, as there have been so many things happening lately. Next week will consist of more fun, since the exams are finally over!
