TYPICAL. J
ust came back home from dinner outside. Was gonna meet up with a bunch of friends but the thought of "hanging" outside in the cold just gave me the SHIVERS already. So I decided to stay indoors throughout the day and only went for dinner 2 hours ago.
*GASP! I almost forgot.. before I continue further, I would like to take this opportunity to say..
HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY Andrea!
May all your wishes and dreams come true. Wish I was there, probably KICK start the party that your CURRENTLY having right now.. -__-
Nonetheless, ENJOY it alright? Hahaha.. love you!
As I was saying... Are you all wondering why my first word of this post, 'TYPICAL' is written? There's a funny story to it..
I was heading out to Sinchon for dinner today but headed out early cause I wanted to see if those GORGEOUS pair of shoes was still at the shop. So there I was looking around the place when all of a sudden this group of what looks like young CHINESE people came up to me.
"Excuse me Miss, but you look like you can speak English..Can you help us?". Some guy spoke to me.
So I said yeah sure, they wanted to go to the nearest subway station but didn't know where it was. Yeah.. I got lost too when I first came here.. haha =)
Then I gave them the directions. So as I was talking to the dude, the other peeps who accompanied him were speaking among themselves so loud, obviously I could hear them.
"No lah.. I don't think so. Where got so expensive one? That Namdaemun place I think got better and cheaper one you know??".
Second impression? MUST be SINGAPOREANS. Definitely.. I wanted to challenge my intuition so after telling him the directions I just asked, " You guys from Singapore?".
All of them looked at me with some kind of surprise on their face.. so I said, ME TOO.
"Oh! we thought you were American, cause you sound like one."? -__-
What the hell? Haha =) Sound like one doesn't mean I AM one? Jackasses.
So we stood there, about 5 minutes.. asking me what the hell I was doing here, in Seoul.Like Duh?? Study lah.. but how would they know right? So off they went.
I can't believe how Singaporeans turn out to be so unique. Like once the words, LAH, LOR, WAHLAU or LEH.. come out of one's mouth, INSTANTLY you know their Singaporeans. Haha =) I'm proud to be one. Well SOMETIMES. haha =)
Right.. That was one hell of an experience.. And actually the first few Singaporeans I've met since I've been here in almost 3 months! Which I forget to mention this before, I'm the ONLY Singaporean in my school. Well at least for my term.. Unbelievable!
Haha.. ok done. Eyelids are shutting.
More updates tomorrow!
Goodnight!
