throwback thursday: helium balloons

 

 

just the other day, while looking out the window i saw a little girl crossing the road holding a golden star helium balloon bigger than her body.

i wanted to be her, that moment.

beef tartare 육회

this is how a regular BBQ night looks like in the south!
not every BBQ joint serves yukhae (beef tartare) but when you do see- ORDER!
a great yukhae is hard to find, but the decent ones are everywhere!
nyam nyam nyam :)

online haul: new nikes

it's usually cheaper to shop online in Korea for certain most things... and recently I bought my new Nike Free Runs from 11st (which is another big shopping site like ebay/taobao of korea- remember 2ne1 being 11st ambassadors?).

11st now has an english site: english.11st.co.kr  to accommodate us foreigners and it ships worldwide! they usually have events/promo's for discounted worldwide shipping rates- you can add them here to get updates!

anyways, in this 빨리빨리 land- I indeed got the shoes speedily. 1.5 working days as stated and i'm impressed with their flawless deliver service!

linen top: Uniqlo

floral pants: H&M

shoes:  Nike Free Run +3

throwback thursday: 2 tone dye.

i've always had short, short bob hair. I used to anticipate going to the saloon every month and I would just sit back and let Jack (my hair stylist) do whatever he so wishes too...

after 3 years, he left for Singapore and I never saw him again...

...the only regret as we were having our last haircut session- we should have kept a picture-log of the hairstyles he did for me over the years. :(

since then, i've been growing out my hair and now, it's the longest it has ever been.

eating at home

some of the things i've been feeding myself lately.
1. bakuteh (i've cooked 4 packs since i arrived!)
2. mixed preserved vege rice.
3. duck.

grocery shopping in korea is not cheap. (say, one biji of onion is RM3. ONE BIJI!)
then there's like mango which cost RM15 for one biji and the only thing which is similar in price are the milk and cheese!

nonetheless, eating in is easier.
