I just counted and I bought 20 bottles of nail polish back from Korea.
and 58 items of makeup+skincare and all. (And another 19 for my friends) (But some makeup is for stocking up, like cleansing wipes, bases, BB creams and mascaras and so on, those I'll always need~~)
BAHAHAHHAHA MACHIAM OPEN SHOP.
I think the phrase people always used to say when they saw my collection of nail polishes "walao eh you can open manicure salon already" is more justifiable now with the new additions.
Walao but I got cheated for 3 bottles lor.
Its this brand, created in Korea, called Nfu Oh and they have this special kind called flakies, and I read from a previous personal account that they sell it cheaper in the headquarters, around 10usd and more expensive in other stores who bring in the polish.
But simisai, when I went to the headquarters, it cost me $36?!?!??! USD?!??!?!
But I still bought one holographic one, they didn't have the flakies colour I wanted.
Then when I went to an outside store, I saw the flakies I wanted and it was selling for $17?!??!?!?!? USD?!?!?!! KANASAI HALF THE PRICE CAN.
So I bought 2, though there was one more colour I reaaally wanted but they also didn't have and anyway last chance already, my mother also contemplating to send me to Woodbridge/Buangkok because of my obsession with nail polishes.
AND THE HEADQUARTERS BLOODY HARD TO FIND CAN.
Everywhere in Korea is super hard to find. Walk until die.
Every street/alley looks exactly the same, has the same 7Eleven/GS25, find until die really.
You'll die if you can't speak basic Korean and ask for directions.
Sorry ah my family like to act one smart every holiday free and easy.
And the subway, in Singapore its the norm to find escalators, and actually rare to find stairs if you think about it, the amount of escalators : stairs is like 4:1 or maybe 5:1, but in Korea its the exact opposite. They almost have no escalators, everything is stairs, and if you think transferring from NEL to EWL at Outram is troublesome because of the walking, think AGAIN.... my feet are still traumatised...
They do have elevators(aka lifts here in SG, UK, and the list goes on...) but they're for the handicapped/elderly/pregnant people and so on, but my mum and I are shameless (no I won't say Singaporeans, or the more specific phrase I hate: typical Singaporeans) so we took the lifts anyway :P
Walao feet all blisters already leh.
Which led me to think, what are escalators in Chinese? 电梯? And what are elevators/lifts in Chinese? 电梯?
Which led me to a big fat
HUH????
And then the part about my feet led me to think, WHY THE FUCK KOREAN GIRLS' FEET SO SMALL??????
Their shoes are sooooooooo fucking pretty but I only managed to get a few so-so sandals because my feet are big as fuck.
Their biggest size is a 38(250), (which I have been thinking is a 40, no wonder those shoes from Zipia hurt :/ ) and my size is a UK 7, US9.5, EU40-40.5???
NABEI. All so pretty but I cannot buy :'(
Please don't ask me "Got see BB/21 a not?" Not even in the mood to spell their names out in full, because of my dad and his secretary's one-sided or double one-sided decision making, without asking the people who are actually traveling if their schedule is full, anyhow go and book ticket without my knowledge and caused me to miss F1 GDTOPRI, and not even see a single soul waiting in the (relatively) cold outside YG, because well, 21 WAS IN JAPAN ENTERTAINING FANS THERE. UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH :'(
What was worse was that we thought it was a 5 day trip, and then when we checked the tickets the night before the flight it was only 4 days -.-
Then my mom flared up and slept with me. Quite funny. Hahahha she thought I was asleep but I was sniggering next to her...
Then my dad changed our flight to Sunday night instead and it got extended to a whole week!
So I'm supposed to be an excited girl but actually, for what ah, GTOPRI AND 21 also not back yet-.- But I guess it was worth for the amount of shopping we got to do. Although changing the ticket meant paying more -.- it was some offer ticket so SIA rules blah blah eee why I keep using -.- HAHAHHAHA
ALL WE DID WAS SHOP. NON STOP SHOPPING FOR 7 DAYS.
We didn't even eat much. Only exciting eating place was Se7en's Yeolbong and I took pictures with pictures of YG singers -.- and the fake cardboard Se7en. Hahaha didn't even go to a Korean sauna cos we couldn't find one.
Only tourist-y place we went was Namsan tower. And ogle at all the locks/couples in love and be sad.
Amount of clothes probably more than 10 and shoes like 5 pairs?
Oh but I did see singer 'Z' while walking at Itaewon heheh mysterious much.
Die liao keep speaking in Korean to my grandma.
After like these few years of ignoring her or giving her one word replies I'm forgetting all my Tamil.
Hahahhaah and Korean just comes out of my mouth *NOT ON PURPOSE!!*
But she seems to understand me...
I keep saying
aniya (no) instead of
e-leh in Tamil lol
In my head is :"Why are you so sensitive? Because of small noises you keep waking up!!"
and when I try to say that to her: "Wae jakku irona? Keunyang saljjak soriramyeon neon irona!!"
*Realises that was Korean* *Grandma's face like YOU GONG SIMISAI?!*
"Ani ani keu (still Korean LOL) - Ye tiripi tiripi yendringeh? Sooma sineu sineu satteo la yendringeh!!"
Hahahha and I only know this now. Just now when I was thinking of how to say it in Tamil my mind was just blank and I gave up and came back to my room....
**************************************
SOooooooooooo, birthday in about two weeks peeps! Any peeps out there?
*cricket sound*
Lol nobody reads I know. HAHAHAHHAHA
SOMEONE PLEASE BUY ME ALL THE CROCHET-Y LACEY STUFF AND SILVERY/METALLIC SWEATERS!!!
Even though its impossible to survive in knits here in Singapore :/
I bought like 3 from Korea already but I WANT MORE, MORE I SAY!!!
And this godly pair of shoes.......
http://www.shopnastygal.com/products/Thelma-Platform-Wedge.htmlTHEY ARE MAGIC.
No matter how much I can't walk in them or pain they will give me, I will tolerate it because they are too pretty!!!
P.S. my size is 9.5 hehehhe
I don't know why, I kind of knew myself to be not much of an animal-print, polka-dots, lacey/crochet kinda girl but I've recently gotten 1 or 2 animal print items, still strictly no polka-dots though, and all things lacey and crochet appeal to me like mad!!
Sigh, remind me again why I have such big feet and why Korean shoes are so small. WHY!!
P.S. no pictures hahahha they are all selcas in my hotel room LOLZZZZ unless you wanna see pictures of the YG building -.- or the Namsan Tower both of which you can Google and easily obtain better views of rather than the lousy pictures I took....
