D-Day
It'll only be some time before i get out of the house with my luggage, report my attendance and get my bum on the plane that will bring me to Seoul, South Korea. I'm kinda worried with questions like "What time should i leave the house?", "Did i pack everything i need?", "Is that 250g of lotion accceptable?", "Will the stuff i have keep me warm?" etc, stuck in my head. My mum's mad at me cause i was rude to her just now. What a way to start the day right? -______-
I've got one bag filled with instant noodles, small boxes of cereal, Campbell soup packets and Oreos. I'm afraid that there won't be any halal food to eat. I keep imagining myself already in the hotel wondering who my other 2/3 roomates will be. I'll have to be ridiculously neat with my luggage especially since we'll not be staying in one hotel only.
My mum has given me waaaaay to much cash to blow. To me, if i have too much cash with me, it'll be a burden since i'll have to ensure i don't lose the money while trying to have fun. If you want to know how much i'm bringing, read the next line. I'm bringing $300 sinpore which is around 255000 won, i think and $150 singapore cash to whatever emergencies. I'm planning to leave around $100 behind without my mum knowing but based on past experiences, i don't think thats such a good idea. I'll be leaving the house at i don't know what time but i hope i won't be late. (We were to report at 7.30 and me being a worrywart, didn't want to be late even though we were boarding at 10.45)
My mum's still pissed at me and is refusing to talk or even look at me. Childish. If she won't send me off, then i guess i'll just get my Dad to do it or maybe i'll just fly off myself and have dinner with Celine and Quan Lin instead. That is , if they don't mind.
(I ended up having dinner wiith my Mum, Grandma and bro who sent me off too :D)

Still D-Day
Everyone's ready, waiting for the time to actually borad the plane. The taste of the iced mocha is still fresh in my mouth and i just realised that i left my Hi-Chew candy at home.
-____- At least my Mentos is still with me so (hopefully) i won't feel the pressure from the plane when we take off and land/get nervous/get nervous and a huge headeache/all 3 possibilities.
I'm sitting in seat 37J which sucks because it's so bloody far from Marisa's seat. (I already miss Fathur and i haven't even left the airport) I'm freezing and should probably wear my sweater but i'm too engrossed writing. I realised i got this don't-do-things-halfway habit from Ayah. If you really want to know, he taught me this when he asked me to help him scrape the scales of the fished he fished that day and it being smelly and scary and squatting so much was so tiring, i wanted to quit but Ayah didn't let me. What happened next, i can't remember.
I bought this rechargable battery and its charger for a hackin' $30.90. O.O" Now we're all waiting for the plane after getting scanned and checked to see if we're terrorists. I ope m meagre amount of 52 songs can last me for some time before i fall asleep or whatever.
"I hate Mr Flirt. Damn him and his fugly proudness"
(Those phrases in the inverted comas were the thoughts i randomly was thinking of. I was stuck in my seat and beside me was Chong Teng and beside him was this really scary guy whom i suspected might have been a_________. Assumption only! And when i left my charger in Elvira's room, i never got it back. Just the batteries. The charger was missing.-.-)

S'pore: 7.13am
Korea: 8.16am
After boarding the plane, i realised my plane buddy was Chong Teng and some strange guy who scared me a little. Turns out, he scared Chong Teng a little too. I got the window seat! ^^ I think i haven't fully overcomed my (tiny) fear of taking planes cause i had a small headache and was gripping onto my seat as the plane became lopsided and took off. The worst thing was, Marisa was on the other side of the plane at the next window.
(i scribbled a picture onto my notebook)
So she couldn't listen to me moaning on about the flight. I furiously stuffing Mentos and sucking and cheewing to help with my fear. I tried distracting myself by focusing on the tv screeen in front of me but ended looking out the window and enjoying the the fact that the buildings were getting smaller and further and a (stupid) small voice inside told me that the plane was going to crash and me ending up dead. -____________-
The first few hours hours, i listened to music from the screen and from my phone and i slept for an hour plus only. I then watched "Get Smart" at around 2am and having small chat with Chong Teng. The food came at around somewhere after the movie ended and i looked at my tray : a plain, cold bun, strawberry jam, absurdly spicy 'Nasi Goreng', plain water, a cup, fruits, a yoghurt. YOGHURT. The sight of it summoned my inner puking monster. So i didn't touch the yoghurt , fruits, or cup or jam. I took 3 pinches of my tasteless(probably stale) bun and one-third of a spoon of Nasi Goreng. I couldn't eat it cause my headache came back and was gnawing my head off. I ended up sleeping with their food even though i was the first few to get the meals 10-15 min earlier. The stewardess snatched my tray when i handed it to her.
They were all rushing cause the plane was landing soon. I was a little afraid when we landed and chatting to Chong Teng helped distract me. If your wondering why my handwriting is so messy, its cause i've no flat surface to write on except the floor which i'm doing on the bus. Marisa's clutching onto the donuts Nat and i bought even while she's sleeping. The tourguide's name is Annie and she seems strict and i'm wondering if she any children because of her motherly figure. My left hand is freezing since its not writing and moving and when i breathe out"HAAAA", i can see white fog. Ima try take a picture when i get the chance.
"I wonder what Fathur's doing now?"
"Poor Marisa was woken up by Elvira while she(Marisa) was protecting the donuts"
I'm really tired typing now and i wana watch "Hell Girl" (which is so cooool and scaryyy but totally worth the watch) . I'll probably continue tomorrow if i'm not too lazy. I'll update the photos asap too.
Later!
