Nails and Namsan 26.6

So today we visited Itaewon and I have to say that there is absolutely nothing. I didn't like that place and neither did my friends. We decided to go to Hongdae and get a manicure in a nail studio. I got a bit carried away and now I have gel nails. :DD So like me... And that is how boring our day was.
But luckily for me and Maiju we met with our new friend and went together to Namsan. It was a bit strange at first but then we just started to talk and everything turned out fine. Me and Maiju paid for our friend so that we could go up the tower. The view was really beautiful like it was before, but this time the weather was better and you could see more. From the tower we went to eat chicken together into a restaurant near the subway station. And of course we orderd soju and played some drinking games. I bet Maiju has bad memories from this place...
Me and Maiju wanted to play Tekken so we went to an arcade in Hongdae and played there against each others. I won agains Maiju but lost against our friend. :<
The evening ended when we started to look for a place where our friend could sleep, because he already missed the last train. kkkk.

A small update~

Hiking, meeting friends and party (again) 16.6

HI~ !

So today we woke up really early because we were going hiking to the mountains. The train ride took about 1 hour, because we had to switch trains (and we got a little lost..). We went to Dobong mountain to hike. Everyone was so well prepared except us. We looked like.. tourist there, but then again that is what we are in here! hahaha~ ^^ First we went through a market and we bought some kimbab as a snack that we could eat in the mountains. After that we walked forward and found a map where we could see the whole area. It was HUGE. Well it was a national park but still. We didn't really know which route to choose so I said that maybe we should walk to this info stand and see if we can find a route from there. And so we went to the info stand and we did indeed find a better map. I chose a small route that wasn't too long. The only problem was that when we got almost at the top of a mountain we noticed that we had taken the wrong turn at some point buceuse we should even have been that high. XD Well it didn't matter because there was also another way down and we decided to use that one.








When we came back to our hostel it was already a little over 16 o'clock and I was supposed to meet with my friends at 18 o'clock in Myongdong station. I took a quick shower and changed my clothes after that I was off to Myongdong. I came there a bit late but luckily my friend was still waiting for me. We started to walk towards Namsan tower together. First we wanted to take the cabel car but the queue was too long so we just decided to walk there. It was nice and because it was already a bit cooler than in the day. We talked about a lot of things, I found out that she likes to take photos so I asked if she could help me to pick a camera. ^^ When we got to the tower we went to eat to the Italian restaurant that was in the tower. It was funny how the restaurant was only full of couples but we didn't really care. We orderd pizza and carbonara. It was soooo good and felt cozy. After we ate we went to the top of the tower to see the view. The line to the elevator was so long! But we got past the line because one of the workers made a mistake, hehee :P The elevator was... strage. There was a video that made it look like you were going to space. Only in Asia. But the view from the tower was so beautiful! It was already dark and you could see the lights in the city. We walked around the tower and went back downstairs (but we had to wait to get to the elevator again). After taking pictures we started to go back to the subway station. She made sure that I went to the right metro and we made plans to go shopping together next time. ^^










I was really tired when I got back to the hostel and was planning to go to sleep but nooooo, our new friends from our hostel decided that I should go to party with them. In the end I HAD to go because they left no choises but I was in a really bad mood and didn't have much fun. I went back quiet early and went to sleep.



That's how my day went. I'll write again!
