I hope all your wishes come true and that this year will be the best one so far!! We are going to paint this place red! Are you with me?
The last day of the year started very chill with me having to teach winter camp. The camp it self was a little bit of a flop, well the last day at least, as we didn't have much to do with the kids. Nevertheless it was fun. Embarrassing actually, because I was playing musical chairs with the kids and I fell over a chair in front of everyone!
Right after school I went to Busan Station to pick up Hendrik for his first Busan visit. Later the evening Leanne and Jonathan also joined us. We had a nice and chill dinner in my flat, which consisted mainly of chicken and apple pie. We made it just out of the flat before 2010 hit us and headed towards The Vinyl Underground, a club just around the corner from the flat. As soon as we got there all of us realised that we were still way to sober to meet the new year so we started with the shots. Tequila baby!
We had such a fun night, only the six of us. All South Africans mind you!
Calling home at 12 was weird, because we just entered 2010 and back home it was still 2009. Mind blowing I tell you. For me at least :) After all the phone calls and tears we headed to the closest Noraebang (singing room) to welcome the new year properly with singing and some more beers. The Noraebang closed eventually so a few of us made our way to Kino Eye - a foreigners pub just up the road.
The three survivors stayed for some foozball and darts.
On the first we only woke up at 3 in the afternoon and I made a killer babelas breakfast for all to enjoy. After breakfast we got back to bed with a few movies. What a way to start the new year. We didn't leave the flat once.
The second we settled for some lekker shopping in the worlds biggest department store, Shinsegae and then us ladies left the guys for some well deserved pedicures. The pedicures took us about 4 hours in total, but was totally worth it.
On the third (Happy bday Wouter!!) Leanne and Jonathan went back to Cheongju and Hendrik and I eventually made our way to the beach. It was (surprizingly) a beautiful afternoon. Once we got to the beach we decided to take a 50 minute coastal boat ride to check out the diamond bridge at night. Gwangali Bridge is stunning at night, no wonder they call it the diamond bridge.
The week started off pretty normal. I started my second winter camp at another school with a friend of mine. I really enjoy teaching at that school. The kids are extremely nice and well mannered and the classes are geared with all kinds of cool stuff.
Anyways I see good things happening this year and I wish you guys all the best! Keep reading and keep me posted. 18 sleeps till Thailand!!!! Can't wait sick of the cold! Enjoy the sun at home!
Love and miss all of you! x
