Went to Korea with my friends last year.  

Details:

Korea Flight: 17 October 2019 at 10.35pm to 25 October 2019 at 6.40pm (Korea Air)

HOW MUCH IS THE AIR TICKET AND HOTEL?

The total cost was SDG$5,981.11 include hotel (3 rooms) and flight for 5 people.

So each person is SGD$1,196.20. 

(But unfortunately due to unforeseen situations, two of them which is husband and wife are unable to go. So the remaining three of us got one room each)

WHERE DID I GET THE SIM CARD?
Bought the Korea sim card from Qoo10 (ICC) cost about $12.20 after using cart discount.

WHERE IS THE HOTEL LOCATED AT?

We stay at the Savoy Hotel which located at Myeongdong, very near to MRT.  It was very convenient.
Direction: Alight at Myeongdong Station and exit 7 but the escalator is very small. There is a lift but it's another side of the exit. I think it's exit 1 or if you don't mind taking the stairs, exit 6 will be nearer.

Lines store just outside our hotel entrance. 
 Warning:
(But better bring all your valuable stuff with you and lock your luggage before you left.
Because got one time, when we are back from the hotel, my friend's room door was open.
The hotel cleaner forgot to close the door. She or he also left the room key as well. 
We were so shocked and kinda angry but we didn't ask for any compensation, just telling them in an angry tone to be careful next time. They keep saying sorry to us so end up we alright with it.)

I was actually very excited about this trip as the last time I went was 2010. 

First Day of Itinerary

Thanks for reading!
Stay tuned for the 2nd-day post in Korea.

 

Being jobless for about 5 months already. I hate people asking this question "You found a job already?".  

Okay first or second times asking I'm okay with it but more than 2 times, I can't really take it. Some might be just concern about me or some might be just want to kaypo. I just don't like people asking me so many times like as if you're my parent or what. I won't ask people as well because I know it's annoying. Arghhh...

I've been thinking and crying a lot lately.

 I really need a find a stable job that I think I will stay there forever.

I can't let my mum keep working alone. I can feel that she is not feeling too well especially her leg.

Most of the time I will tell her not to buy my food. I'm okay I can cook maggie mee to eat. But she refused and bought for me to eat. 

 But because of this Covid 19, finding job is even harder for me.  Most of the jobs are either too far (like tuas, woodland), or the salary is too low.

Kinda worried about my future. 

I don't want to tell my friends so much because I confirm will cry in front of them. (Even I'm crying now while typing) 

so....... 

To myself: Lian, please don't say only, please do it and jiayou!
