Finally found time to post about Gyeongju trip! There's so many pictures so i got lazy and didn't comment on every single photo. After all, a picture speaks a thousand words, yeah? That will save me the effort. Haha.

Friday (28/06)
Packed our bags and off we go to spend our first weekend in Korea at Gyeongju! It's our first field trip out of the three which we signed up for. It was a few hours ride from SNU and we had plenty of rest stops. At one of them, we spotted this interesting baseball thing!

A dad and his kid.
Like cool right! I think you just gotta drop a coin in and you can play for a few minutes. When you go in the cage to start playing, there would be a female voice saying, "Oppa, fighting!" Or something along that line. Hahaha.

A bowl of fruits given to us!
We sat right at the back which was really good because we can adjust our seats without having to worry about disturbing the people behind us.
Awesome scenery on the way. We then finally arrived at our lunch place!
Bibimbap!
Jalmokgetseumnida!
After lunch we traveled to this craft village where we had our jewelery/ceramic making session.
We chose jewelery making so this was what i did. Haha, not exactly a jewelery la. It's very simple too, just gotta 'colour' it according to your liking.
Some wood sculpture outside the craft village.
We headed to a beach after that! Strong wind, strong waves!

Finally, we headed to Blue One Resort to check in for the night! Took some pictures of the scenery along to way as well...
At first we had high expectations because being me, i googled about the resort and it seems really good. But then on the bus, a person was telling us that 5 people had to share a bed. Which was a very shocking news to us. Like whattt?! Even my primary 5 overseas trip, at most we had to share 2 to a bed. But 5 to a bed? Seriously?? However, upon reaching we were like, "Woa, looks good!" and hoping the person was wrong/just joking.
Buffet dinner time~!
And there was a water park next to the resort. Super tempting but it was so late and we didn't have extra clothes/swimsuit... ):

Eat eat eat~!
After which we checked out and went to visit Seokguram grotto and Bulguksa temple!

Candid shot which the photographers took. Haha.
This is what's inside of Seokguram. No pictures allowed so i took a picture of a picture of the Buddha in the Seokguram. Haha.
For a fee, you can write some wishes on this black concrete(?).
Huge bell!
A picture of the night scene of the bell! Looks pretty huh!
3 of us shared some berries from the auntie at the roadside stall just because it looks good!
The field trip people!
Lunch.
To Cheonmachong
Doesn't this look like Teletubbies land?! Hahaha.
:)
Checked in at a different resort!

Less luxurious feeling, but good nonetheless. This time we have 4 beds and towels are provided!
View from our room. That's where we had our dinner buffet as well! Macham wedding style.
Since we had time before dinner, all of us quickly went to bathe before heading down for dinner. We learnt our lesson from last night as after eating so much, all of us were too full to bathe and ended up bathing at a super late timing.

Dinner! Nice coke glass bottle which i kope one back because my mum likes collecting coke stuffs. This one is really special since it has korean words on it!
Chatted with the hongkong girls who shared a table with us. All of us stayed around and conversed till quite late. One of the girl who is only 19years old is already in university studying medicine. @.@ Another is of our age and is studying linguistic. Apparently Singapore is used as a case study due to our famous Singlish. Haha. That's quite interesting to know. Rachel and i went back to the room the latest since for this resort, only the lobby had wifi. On our way back to dorm, we met a drunk guy who seemed embarrassed about it and shook his head to keep himself sober while trying to walk straight. The entire scenario amused us and kept us laughing because it was too funny.

Buffet breakfast which this time i didn't try to stuff myself with food. Too full from all the food i've been stufing myself with for the past few meals. :/
Checked out and then back to dorm! Didn't head out as we had a quiz the next day. Which means after reaching back to dorm, we hit the books.

Simple dinner at dorm's cafeteria! (I had two servings of vegetables and kimchi because Rachel didn't want hers :P)
