I STIL HAVE MORE PHOTOS TO ADD.
ohmygosh, i don't know where to start off from...
I have SO MUCH to talk about! :D
This trip was such good experience!
so so... I went to Korea with Mindy, Amrita,Wei Qi, Joyce, Ethan Lai,Timothy, Jun Ru,Tiana and Xue Ting + Mrs. Jae, Ms. Jung and Mr. Jackson.
and erm.. we went for 7 days.
Flew off on the 12th of Nov 2011.
Singapore to Bangkok (4pm-5.15pm)
I sat with Joyce and JunRu, that flight was SO ANNOYING.
there were these indians who didn't understand on the plane, like, all of them there, except for us...
They kept standing up when the plane was gonna take off AND land, and kept talking on their phones, kept talking to eachother really loudly...The guy diagonally behind me, kept staring, and when I wasn't looking, he wrote a note to Ethan( he was sitting in front of the guy) saying something like, " what is the instrument she is using" and Ethan was like... " ipad". pretty funny actually.
Well, when we reached the Bangkok airport, we had around 5 hours to spare...
we ate our dinner at the airport and had ice-cream
sat with Joyce and Jun Ru again, and BREAKFAST, was freaking served at 4am....

3rd Day
Woke up, reached the school at 8am, drawing collaboration with teh students at 9am.
We had to get to know our partner...we were given 20min to draw whatever you learnt about your partner, and then, exchange it, and you're suppposed to complete the artwork.
NO OFFENSE, but it was kinda boring....
after that, we went for some Korean traditional drum class with the dancers.
Lunch, at the canteen... they give really little :/
after, we went to shoot some hoops.
AND THEN, we went to the Korean Folk Village. It was soooo funny there, we were there for a while. The guide... omg haha he was hilarious. Like, he kept calling Mr. Jackson over, and when the rest of us asked questions, he ignored us... and only gave his attention to Mr. Jackson :/
It was a really cool village place though! We got to see the olden Korean houses.
Nam June Paik Art Center: pretty cool artworks there...
5.30pm: Back to KAYWON, then, to my host's house, took a 30min busride back. We had spaghetti for dinner, then went out to watch a movie, but they only had Korean ones, so we went window shopping instead, but there was nthing good, so we went home.
