Korean Trip ~ series part 1

Here i am, wanting to write about my Korean trip ... And don't really know how to start ... Just not so me ... Gosh, i wrote the content n was about to find the title ... Do I really want it to make Series ?? Hope it will continue till the end .. Hehehe


It is my 2nd Korean Trip and winter time ... Bbrrr,, excitec.. excited ... But, first of all .. The preparation is much more complicated and not to mention more expensive than if I go in the summer time like it was in 2009 ... Obviously,  winter coat and its accessories like syal, gloves, etc.  My boss also reminded me to wear set of long john underneath, bcoz it was already minus degree celcius over there.

Very excited at the fact that I can see snow again ... God is so good that He hears my unspoken wish .. I was just lingering whether sometimes I may see snow again ... Voila, and He grant me that lingering thought that quick through people around me.

Soo Blessed by His Love..

I am not sure if I would write in chronological places , i guess we just see how my fingers lead me .. Hoho

This time I travel with one of my colleague, too bad my boss couldn't go with us.

Jakarta to Seoul -- December 8th, 2012.
At the Airplane  (by Garuda Indonesia, 23.30pm Jkt to Incheon and Incheon to Jkt back at 10.30 am seoul time)

For my family or even some relatives know that I don't like long hours by airline , because I tend to get airsick easily ...  soo long for Europe trip or another American trip .. good thing, I'd been there before even though at my young ages...
anyway, So there I go - the 7 hours trip ... My air times on the way there was not very smooth, many turbulences shaky and whatever comes ... Airsick comes ...  obviously made my flight not soo pleasant. 

Luckily, I had  nice airtime on my return flight  on my way back to Jakarta from Seoul, no airsick, plenty and frequent food and beverages being offered at the returned trip,  funny captain who likes to speak via the airline speaker .. He even greeted and thanked the passengers with Korean... Every now and then in the middle of the flight he updated the situation... The captain is pretty cool, my friend n I thought.

Arrived in Incheon (the airport of Seoul)  -- morning time , around 9 am Seoul time .

How nice to be able to see white ground covered with snow when the Garuda touched Seoul's ground.  What a Relieve, as  soon as I went out through the elephant trunk (maksudnya belalai gajah), eventhough we are still inside the building, I can already sense n smell the Fresh Air, and also the crisp air touch the nose from the cold weather  - and feeling of breeze from the wind in my legs and thigh.  Not surprising, after all the captain said the weather outside is -10 degree C ..  It is about 40 degrees difference from Jakarta's weather.

We went directly to the rest room to wear our long-john and the coat as my boss  already guided us  before we left and I saw some people did the same too.


In Incheon Airport, we had to ride this subway going from and to between  the departure or arrival
gates to the immigration and baggage area .. Hhmm,, pretty cool ..feel like in singapore



Mr. Young already waited for us in front of , right after the baggage area ..
Felt very good to be able to see Korea again at the different season, with different friend accompanying.

Was quite a walk in the land covered with snow, felt like slipping several times of the slippery of the snow-icey road to the parking lot ... Now, I could feel the real coldness of the Seoul weather..  A drastic change from Jakarta's weather ..

Mr. Young dropped by at the Wan San beach on the way to Seoul ..



As I am not sure whether other people want to be as narcism as I am in the public blogging spot, I cannot show my picts with them in here...

This pretty pict of land covered with white snow, I took on our way from the airport from the car ... Been soo long since i see this view ..   Miss my Wisconsin times

For A Brand New Year

Had been missing in words, juls reminds me ..

Here i go, for a start ...

A Brand New Year of 2013
My Prayer n Wishes :

God,  I'm very grateful for everything You gave me ~ whole bunch of Blessings in 2012 , everything I need before I even speak to You,  You gave just the exact thing to me ...   How Great Thou Art !❤

Just make me to be a better person who can be as close as how You want me to be ...  Keep me n my family in Your Grace, Your Love, Your Shine, And in Your Protection... Always n Continuously .

I always wonder of what You have plan for me , but lately realizing that  I just have to put myself restless to You , because You know exactly what I want and what I need.  I don't have anything to  worry about.
Amien


Resolution .. Of the 2013 ,, if I still need to make ;

 ~~ keep the healthy lifestyle that I started in 2012 ... YeaY,,, I will make it to 1 year in Feb of continuous exercise weekly ,, so proud of myself, some kilogr have been cut, down sizes for pants n
clothes , and not just that physical look, but I feel so much better with routine exercise ...
I  remembered about this time last year Mr. Moon forced the four of us to take a medical
check up n half part very2 strongly encouraged us to exercise ... now, I am thankful that I actually followed his word of wisdom   ... Well .. Good healthy Routine need to be Continue !!!


~~ healthy lifestyle means controlling my meals too ...  Although this december ( read : Holiday Season)  I did broke many of my own commitment in food intake due to many food gifts, cakes, hampers, n other food fiesta ,, I've been quite strict on my food preferences this past 2012 ... As far as I can remember . . 1.  No padang food at all,,,  2. regular noodles have been changed to rice noodles or glassnoodle (( trust me, for a Mie Pangsit Lover, this is almost the hardest part of my new healthy lifestyle) ... 3. Change white Bread  to Wheat --- also hard to do ..... 4. Gorengan bakwan dan sejenisnya out completely ..  5. Decrease Sweet intake ...  ..
 Aiisshh .. 2 weeks of December make me back to Greedy ... Such Poison that I need to consume
once in a year to fill my appetite ..  Then this week, need to get back On The Right Track !!!  



~~ last one I need to do is : Think Very Very Long before I Talk especially we know where and what i am talking about .. This i need to do to avoid lots of conflicts, since we know all kinds of human  characters I need to deal with ..

Well .. A great start of the New Year , start with A Wish and Target I set to myself , Help me God so that I can achieve it ...
