grad trippin' in south korea #6

Happy weekend, everybody! What is everybody up to? My weekend so far has been great. I met up with friends at a game cafe for dinner on Friday and today I met one of my best friends for an afternoon mani/pedi pampering session and then for a little shopping at the mall. Tomorrow, I will mostly be running errands. Hopefully I can finish them early and continue working on the blog. The only blip on my weekend so far has been discovering that my 15B flash had died. But there's a silver lining, I get to go down to the camera shops and shop! Hee! :)

Right on to Roll 08! In here, I spend my last day in Gyeongju (we only spent 1.5 days there in all) and took the train back to Seoul! We had to rush like crazy to make the trip to and fro Bulguksa temple, which is a little farther away from the Gyeongju city centre, to get back in time to catch our train. We almost almost didn't make the train! But with super human strength and speed, we managed to race into the station with 4 minutes to spare! We got to Seoul in the afternoon and after checking into our hostel, we went for a stroll around our neighbourhood and Cheonggyecheon.
