day 12: i look like a poodle

so after class we came back to the dorm and had lunch at the canteen again! i had ddeokbogi and kimbab! after that we headed to edae to search for Hair Messe to... do our hair. i was gonna perm it and yuting to dye her hair.

so we manage to find it easily thanks to the directions i found online on their naver blog! then we stepped in and that.. ammonium (?) smell was super strong hahaha. then we asked bout the price and all, they were reasonable so we spent a good 2-3hours there! the service is not bad :D they serve u free drink, let u read magazines, put a cushion on your lap. u wear like a robe thingy too so whatever they do to your hair u know they won't get to your clothes :) and several ppl attend to you at different times!

so i kinda permed it for 60,000won, and yuting dyed her hair reddish brown for 30,000won! so cheap please! they have all the good perming equipments here in korea. i bet i won't find anyone who can do this for me at 60bucks in singapore. the unnie is so nice, she gave us each a free bottle of hair essence!

LOL i look so stupid i know. the bangs is super thick and the curls.. okay now they're still very bouncy and volumous! we shopped a bit at edae and i bought some stuff!

she tried the 순대 (soon-dae; pig's inner parts) i tried one piece and i felt like puking OMG. the entire bowl cost 2500won at one of the road side stall! the ahjumma was so nice to her lol, gave her 2 free ddeokboggi. like.. just 2 ddeok. hhhahaha

we had this chicken kebab thingy! IT IS SO DAMN NICE OMG! 2000won for a stick, with 5 pieces of chicken and cabbage/spring onion in between. IT IS SO GOOOOOOD.

some pictures i took at edae. edae is really nice! for shopping etc. although i know dongdaemun/myeongdong would be a lot better. but edae is good enough too!!!

i had cafe mocha at caffe bene! idk why for some strange reasons, the coffee here doesn't make me feel nauseous or give me headache! and it is so nice because it doesn't leave the aftertaste in my mouth unlike when i drink starbucks i get those symptoms :( and the cafes here are SO NICE. i haven't been to hongdae, can't wait to see all the pretty cafes! this caffe bene is the one at Sinchon. We walked from edae to sinchon it's like... a junction away only lol.

walked past a 4storeys high toms n toms cafe too T___T

bought this bagpack for 10,000won. yuting got the red one!

something interesting happened when i bought this bag. LOL the korean guy said smthg to us very quickly and i couldn't get it (he asked me if i want a plastic bag) so i replied "뭐?" and then he laughed and repeated me like "뭐?(!?)" LOL omg i felt so embarrassed! it is rude to just say 뭐 in korea, they only use it between friends/ppl u are very familiar with omg my face turned so red T__T gotta remind myself to think carefully before i speak~

this blazer for 24,000won! originally 35,000won. the unnie kept hugging me LOL when she let me try it on like... she called me unnie so i asked her "am i rly your unnie?" and then she told us it is actually the culture here. like they call customers unnie.

sandals for 25,000 (originally 35,000) and sneakers for 20,000 (originally 30,000)

some random accessories ^_^ korea is.. shopping heaven lol. each accessories shop has so much things to look at but they're mostly very cutie.

then we walked back home and.. that's it. lol boring day bc we spent more time at the salon!

going to hongdae tomorrow WOOP!
