NHJ 황혜군's thoughts... First Solo Long Holiday Trip

Actually had been wanting to make a holiday trip to Seoul since early this year..

but there's no reason or excuse that i can give myself to make it possible until...

yes, news of Young Saeng being casted in the musical "The Three Musketeers" (삼총사) came out.
Once i heard of this news, i'm determined to make this trip happen^^

YS is casted as D'artagnan, a young man who leaves home to travel to Paris to join the Musketeers of the Guard.

Before this, i had totally no knowledge or rather interest in this story.. haha
but in order to know at least what this story is about, i went to watch the movie of this story which happened to be screening in early Nov in Singapore.
Thanks to Cin who accompanied me to watch the movie^^
True enough, the movie does makes the story of The Three Musketeers grew a liking in my heart^^
The musical itself is great too! The storyline, the actors & actresses, the live orchestra, everything! just makes the musical a great enjoyment to watched.
i've watched 7 shows and each shows still gives me the flutters in my stomach when i watch them~ totally not biased!

Gotta say that this trip isn't just for YS, i would rather say that its for myself
yes, an excuse for me to "run away" from both work and home for a period of time
a reflection time for me to be precise^^

had been stressful recently due to work
even felt stressed up at home for reasons which i don't know why too
therefore had been determined to make this trip as slow paced & stress free as possible

and here i came to Seoul with my packed luggage in search for my soul~ lol

as i'm pretty tied up in work before i fly, yes, no itinerary had been drawn up for this trip
yes, none~! haha!

therefore for this trip, every journey are done randomly
i will just decide where to go everyday when i wake up~ lol

however, i would say that this is a fruitful trip for me
i've been to the COEX Aquarium (which i had failed to visit in the last trip), the Namsan hangok, the Namsan tower, the hangang river, Apgujung, Hongik (for coffee prince, flea market & kitty cafe), Ewha, DDM, NDM, Itaewon (in search for a famous crepe cafe), JJB & etc
not to forget & of course to Gyeonggi-do for YS's musical at the Seongnam Arts Center

i will never forget the ride on the subway to Imae! will never forget! lol

below are some of the pics taken in this trip~ just some random pics taken from my camera
strange enough, most of the pics i had taken are using my hp! lol
but i'm lazy to transfer them to my lappy =p

yes, finally i'm into the COEX Aquarium!^^

they have a 哈哈镜 in there~lol

it's X'mas even in the aquarium!

i see otters!!

me! under the sea!

had wanted to get myself a big otter soft toy

but sadly the aquarium store does not have it! *pout*

got these as souvenirs instead >.<

at a cafe at the subway station

at Namsan on an evening~

X'mas mood already!

at another cafe nearby the guesthouse~

nice atmosphere~ i like

spend some time "talking" to myself here ^.^

had always like the vibrant colours of the plants

along the roadside in Seoul

one more~

2nd trip up to Namsan in search for my churros~

Namsan Tower ~ daytime

the path towards the bus stops at Namsan

which i had never walked before during

my past trips up the mountain~

nice scenery

到此一游~ hehe

last pic of the tower~

Finishing my trip with the musical which accompanied me throughout the holiday~

I had watched all the shows put up by YS during my trip with 1st show on 15th November and the last show on 29th November~

i'm thankful that i had this chance to watch this musical

through this musical, i've seen the passion all the musical casts had put in for the show

no matter if they are the lead casts or the ensemble casts, everyone put in their atmost effort for the performance

and from there, i noticed, yes, that is the passion i am lacking now

no matter is in my work or simply my life~

this, is like an alarm rang to me, yes, i need to find the passion which i used to have back

and, i believe i will ^^

& this trip had also made my life completed, for now~

as i had seen the 5 boys with my own eyes with Kyu Jong's visit to the musical on YS's first show on 15th Nov~ it seems like a sign to me at that moment~~

that's said, eventhough this is a slow & relaxing trip,

this is actually a discovery & fulfilling trip for me which i am grateful for~

i need to thank many people who makes my trip possible actually

my parents, for their understanding (they can see the stress i'm having recently actually)

my sister, for her forever being so supportive to me eventhough she might see things differently as how i see it

my boss, for granting my long leave

my colleagues, for covering my work while i'm away

my friends, for your care and concern over my solo holiday

to the above, 谢谢你们接受我任性的决定 ^0^

last but not least, to myself, for making this trip possible even at the hardest moment i'm going through~ *pat self on the back*

shall end this entry with the pics of YS taken during the curtain call on 29th November 2011~

MY YOUNG SAENG *LOVES*

It's almost 9am now in Seoul and i should be leaving the guesthouse in another 1.5hrs time~

it's been raining since last nite and yup, i didn't sleep a wink~

was thinking if i should leave an entry for this trip initially, but since i had decided to stay up for the night, i think i should and i'm glad that i did^^

frankly i can't bear to leave this place but i got to buck up and get back to life

there are things that is waiting for me to accomplish and i should always believe that 明天会更好

not sure if i will be coming back to Seoul again in the near future

probably not, as i think i would like to move on and holiday in other countries first if there's a chance

i think Seoul is already missing me~

why? the rain tells it all~~ tata Seoul~ for now ^^

*I LOVE OTTER* ^___^ *waves*

NHJ 황혜군's thoughts... 狮子或猫米

最近的我真的对什么事都提不起劲儿

就连一向上了网，

有一堆能做的事儿，

能看的东西，

我都感到没趣儿

为什么呢

是身心累了

还是我太懒惰了呢

我想···

或许是生活太过安逸了

那只住在我心里的狮子感觉不到了任何的激情

现在那只狮子已经变成瞌睡的猫米了···

NHJ 황혜군's thoughts... Restaurant reviews and others

have been busy with i also don't know what recently that i realised i have not been doing restaurant reviews for quite a while
this is despite the fact that i had been eating and eating soooooo frequently -_-

anyway, might do one or so soon if i have the time later in the month

just for record, Sept is gonna be a fun and enjoyable month for me ^^
will be going to JB, Batam and KL soon

though these are nearby places but i'm still so glad that i can have some breaks away from work

work had been piling me up recently
i don't feel good but 人就是泛贱，为了钱，也只好咬着牙的给它撑过去
there are too frequent a time recently that i felt that i might break down anytime in office
all the pressure within is jinjja stressing me out
i need some breakthrough

Opportunity is what i am seeking now
Change of line at my age is seriously risky and not easy
giving it 3 more months, if that side is still hesitating on engaging foreigners, then i will give up the idea of pursuing an career there

the longer it takes them to decide, the lesser the strength i have in myself to start afresh there
艰难的那步 一直在刚要踏出的那一刻收回 只会让我越来越没信心 嗨~~


oh, the other day when i took a cab, the cabby uncle said something to me that gave me a big fright and i'm still bothered by it now
“你有空记得要去教堂走走”x don't 3 or 4 times
“因为耶稣要来了”

wao lao! creeps me up!
what does this means?
so scary can!!! >.<

please, all bad stuffs stay away from me ok!!!


eh.. don't know what to continue
shall end here. ..1..

NHJ 황혜군's thoughts... 我 ^__^

有时候，我会突然不自信

有时候，我也会超自信

有时候，我会拿不出勇气

有时候，我也会比谁都勇敢

有时候，我会很随波逐流

有时候，我也会很任性

我会为小小的事掉眼泪

我也会为小小的事兴奋得睡不着

一直以来，我都觉得自己不够好

一直以来，我都不拿自己和别人比较

一直以来，我的敌人只有我自己

我承认，我不完美，但是我很真

因为我就是我 ^__^

NHJ 황혜군's thoughts... 生活哲理 - 生命中~~

生命中
不断的有人离开或进入
于是，看见的，看不见了
记住的，遗忘了

生命中
不断的有得到和失落
于是，看不见的，看见了
遗忘的，记住了

然而
看不见的
是不是就等于不存在
那记住的
是不是永远不会消失

生命中~~~

Painting in office!!! ~ First Time ~

Where on earth can you find another boss or company who lets you have the freedom to "vandalize" the wall in the office?

keke.. in my knowledge, only here in PAVE!

Nice?

Last week, on a nice sunny Thursday afternoon, SC and V are probing on what CNY decors shall we put up in the office this year.. and.. something caught their eyes (or is it just SC? keke..)..

A cny greeting card from

one of our suppliers

And so, design set. We are gonna do some make up to this plain old wall in our office...

Yay.. this plain old wall

of ours... :D

I'm so full of enthusiasm waiting for the golden Monday to approach over the weekend.. keke..

First time feeling that Monday isn't blue anymore!!!

And here comes Monday!

Oppss... Salah.. Should be...

Yay... It's Monday!

Hehe... Look! what's this?

Foundation for the wall

We start off by painting the white wall red. Red shall be the base colour of our design since it's theme is CNY!

Me! Putting in my small effort

to paint the base coat

Tadahh!!! But, nope... Not by me, V is the one who painted the whole wall actually.. keke..

Done!

While waiting for the paint to dry (which V took multiple ways he can think of to dry it), we took a short break and have our dinner. Not before long, we finished our yummy MacDonald's we move on to start work.

Actually at that moment, SC and I were chatting among the 2 of us that, well, the most we both can do is to give Vincent moral support cos we really have no experience drawing on a wall before.

But, of cos our Mr. V won't let us off so easily. We were appointed by him to do our part.

Three of us starts off by drawing on the wall with pencils..

Ok, not draw, it's to "trace" out the design which we've chosen and projected on the wall..

And the result, opps, sure look abit "sorry".. keke..

But with confidence, we are sure that the outlook will look nice if not great.. keke.. ^.^

Next supervisor V appoint us our next task..

SC to paint the flowers and I to paint the stems..

It took SC quite awhile to catch what supervisor V wants.. Cos, yay, he's "teaching" her how to paint the flowers.. To start with the buds first then the petals... And it's really "scary" to paint the flowers as the flower tracings which we've done earlier, really doesn't looked like they are flowers at all (oh yay, maybe only those traced by yours truly.. I'm a Arts student, so i can't trace ok, i can only "scribble" wakaka..).. keke..

As for me, ah hem, i bo chap, and just paint the stems the way i wanted it to be..

Not giving supervisor V a chance to teach me at all.. Wakaka... =D

They were "complaining" that I had painted the stems too thick..

But i think otherwise leh.. Hello, I'm a Arts student ok!!! keke..

In my "artistic" point of view, the stems looks PERFECT! (so thick skinned hor..) keke...

Both of us working hard on the

flowers and stems x 1

Working harder x 2

While we are working on our parts, supervisor V does his also. He painted the most magnificent word on the wall.. Yay, it's "春"!

春!!!
With SC still working hard..
keke..

Next is my turn to work on the smaller wordings... With shaky hands...

春回大地 福满人间!!!

still working...

I was in this standing position for at least 45mins while I paint these wordings.. The result, yes, backache for the next 2 days..

The paint colours used.
White, pink and yellow for the flowers...
Gold for the wordings...

The flowers. Almost finishing...

Next, I moved on to paint the 2nd coat of gold on the big 春 as the first layer by supervisor V is too thin and not "bright" enough. Gold suppose to be bling bling de, right?!!!

At the same time, SC and V moved on to add the final touch up for the flowers..

Stirring the paint to make it
well mixed...

Off to start work again...

And.. Tadahhhhhh..................

Our finish "ART" piece!!!

We were super tired when we finished the work... Looking at the clock, the needle had already just past the "holly 12 midnight" and can you believe it that we had started painting at 6pm!

Yes, we took a whole 6 hours to paint this "ART" (I don't care, I wanna call this piece an ART piece.. Bite me if you want...)!!! keke..

Though we happy and satisfied with our work, while we are packing up and on the way home on V's lorry, we were actually kinda worried on the reactions that our boss's and fellow colleagues' gonna have when they are to see it the next day.

And phew, most of the comments are positive and many were taking pics of it (must charge them money hor.. keke..). Yay!!

And the most happiest comment came from our boss.. Just one word.. And it sent us floating in the sky.. ~~~IMPRESSIVE~~~ Yay! Yay! Yay!
