Korean Language and update on past few days.

Haha okok. I Know I haven't really been blogging for the past few days......well...not my fault... Have been rather Busy recently. With all the Korean lessons and all. AND trust me, this language thingy will probably be something I'm going to WORK REALLY hard at for the next few months....groans......starts singing: "words, Don't come easy to me....I want to say....." haha ok corny, I know. Well to cut long story short. Had my first 2 korean lessons about erm lets see on thurs and fri. hmmmm it was not easy, and I can never ever get the difference between the articulation of some of the vowels and consanants, but hey no one's perfect yah? It doesn't help that what we hear the teacher say is so different from what she wants us to say...boo hoo...sometimes i end up not even knowing what i am doing right...or wrong.....thankfully, I'm not the only one with this problem hahahha so....no one is going to tell me i'm tone deaf, ok? Anyway, I snowed on the first day of the school on wed, really think big fluffy snow. I was so pleasantly suprised. I mean, I tot it won't snow anymore, yah? but sigh... I'm really going to miss looking at snow fall from the sky....... though I probably won't miss walking through it.....ouch......

Yesterday I went to hmmmmm Suwon to visit the Fortress and the Fortress wall that sort of surrounds the city. Sorta like the Great Wall of China. But on a much smaller scale i guess. :) Erm as to what fortress it was....hmmm lemme see. I must have written it somewhere gimme a sec yah? Hwaseong Fortress. We walked 3 km from the train station to get there and getting to Suwon took like I dunno.....1.5 hrs? yupyup. I'm getting really used to this walking stuff. Will be in great shape when we do get back. Visiting the Wall was really easy. We just had to follow it. hahaha. Just walked on it around the place. saw a few interesting things on the walk. Statue of king Jeonjo and some other general. will show the pics later........ hmm it was interesting. On the way to the fortress we saw a lot of students. and woah. Boy, were their uniforms really cool. Wished that I could get one. sorta like the type u saw on my Sassy girl. but its so expensive. 134000won to 234000won.....sigh!!!!!!!!!!! The fortress inccidentally is the flim location of one show. hahah i forgot the name. but i took the picture. will show u as soon as i manage to get it up with my friends com... sigh.....having no hello is really bothering me. sobs.

The long train ride back was cool. managed to get seats. and the seats were heated. weeeee though it meant hot bums, it was a welcome change from being stuck in the cold........ hahahaha. actually i believe it was hot enough thtta i probably would be jumping if i had not worn 2 layers of pants. heeeee. oh well. guess thats it. going to Yongsan electronic center with YC and weiqi later. See yah!
