3 post 2 day & 3 pics

Wonder what they had in their food... no, thats normal in korea :)

Yay when i first red the english i didn't notice anything but when i read the Kroean "transu" i was like WHAT :D. First transgender club i ever seen, well it was in Itaewon. Im so gonna go there some day :D.

WTF*

Today i was to Dongdaemun and Itaewon whit my exchange student friend from Finland, Jaana. We was supposed to meet at 11 am in Dongdaemun and fast buy a dress to Jaanas host sister and then go somewhere ells, well that didn't happen. First i woke up at 10.50 but Jaana sms'ing that she will be a bit late [what would i be i thought]. So I hurried to make myself ready to go and i was around 12 in Dongdaemun, as you maybe should know it was raining like heaven but that didn't do much to me, except that i didn't need to pay my subway be cause the water that came in had destroyed the "T-money money taking thing" (T-money is a korean card to witch you upload money and u use it in subway, busses and taxi. and in some stores and automates you can buy stuff whit it) so i had to just walk true like the other (that made some problem when i was supposed to go out be cause the "T-money money taking thing" saw me as a cheater when it hadn't registrate me going in. but luckily a friendly man who was cleaning the floor helped me thru :) ). But yeah i was there at 12 and when did Jaana come? ye well she was there 1.30pm -.-.. haha her way that should have been a 1h ride whit the subway turned out to be a 3h way whit bus, be cause the subway didn't work at all places. anyway i had some cozy time in a small café :). 

After she got the dress we went to Itaewon and now something terribly happened. In Itaewon is plates on the ground for different countries (Itaewon is like the "foreigners place in korea" the reason why im not going there so often)(it really felt like a korea-town somewhere ells) like this for korea...

BUT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FIND FINLAND????

TERE... TERE??? WTF is that? TERE ISNT "HELLO" IN FINNISH... ITS ESTONIAN... In Finnish its TERVE.. omg. well at least they got the capital right and not Tallinn. They probably have bonjour on the Estonian one haha. Anyway I'm gonna find out who is in charge of those plates. If you know, please let me know.

But even if it might sound like that was the worst thing that happened today its far from it. Todays rain combinated whit yesterdays have made big problems in korea. roads under the water. When i came home whit the metro and it went over the Han river i saw a lot of things floating there, things that shouldn't be there, and at the side you could only se the tops of the streetlights. And many houses has been destroyed, not speaking of cars. Mountains has made mudslides and many people have died (over 38).

East Asia is going thru much right now.

*Welcome to Finland

Family update

To long time, again.

Im so'm sorry for not been posting in a really long time, but  i have really been quite busy since the summer holiday started (last weeks thursday). But now i got my self in front of this crapy computer, cant wait to change it to an mac witch i just fear is to expensive to me at the time :/. Anyway its started to show age and i feel a bit sad that i some year ago sat and spoke to my friend how i haven't had any problems whit it. sad that they PC's must go bad in a few years :/ thats why my next will be an mac, everyone i spoke whit that have had them for years claim that they still work as good as news (same you cant say whit hp computers -.-).

Anyway, now you know how i feel about this screen in front of me so i can maybe go back to what i meant to tell you about.

As you know, i was in a host family for one week, and i really enjoyed it. The only downside was that i started to go to a different church as well, so i haven't seen my  friends from there in a long time, but I'm planing on going and visit them someday. Whit this one week family i saw my first 3D movie (yeah, I'm a few years after :P, haven't seen the last hp movie yet either haha), transformers III. However i had to change to another family really soon. This new one i also like, the only problem is that my host brother is moving to america next week sunday so lets see how things change after that. BUT these two last families the children has actually been talking to me, ah, no more shy guys. You know its quite frustrating when you suppose to be brother runs away and hide when your entering the living room/kitchen, witch happened all the time in my second family. But yeah i guess it will be a bit the same now when i wont have anyone more.

The new family dad is really in to showing me around so I'm happy about that. i guess it was the second sunday in this family (17th) that they took me to another church where i got to take practice giving out medicines (my h-dad is a doctor) so it was an experience. the next saturday he wanted to take me to a music and museum thing, but i was out whit my friend then :S.. and this week saturday we went hiking in the mountains, my second time in korea and i love it.

And sorry, i wrote this really fast so it become a bit... well you know, you already read it...

I have been in a family for one week, and they havent had wifi so i havent been able to update anything in this bloog :/.. Yes i could have made my way to a cafe, as i did yesterday but only had a few minutes on me. Anyway, i changed hostfamily today and these have wifi so i will try to update you abouth my happenings as soon as possible.
I tell you i had a great week, with a lovely family, even if we maybe didnt do much "special things" that could make long posts in the blog i havent been bored at any moment. They are just wonderfull and funny people. And since it was only one of my brothers and my siser who spoke english my korean has become notable better under that short time. I will tell you guys more about the plans we have whit that family later.

But now, have a nice day or as for me, a nice loong sleep in a new bed.

Flying out of the home and school?

Today when i came to school i told my teacher about the home and school exchange. To my surprise he hadn't heard of anything of this. So he maid a call to my exchange program and found out that there wasn't any school exchange at all. So I'm only changing family, not school, this Wednesday.

Lady Hauhau

Haha, I found this video today and i feel a bit embarrassed saying this but I'm quite sure this dog reaches the notes better than me. Would me quite fun to have a norebang challenge ;)

Enjoy

Lady Gaga + block.B

Today i was out whit some of my exchange student friends (Isabell, Finn and Mona). A rainy rainy day i tell you, thats of course something i likelove, but today i got a bit wet be cause it was really windy :/. So we went to Myeong-dong where we went straight away to a norebang, which is an "of course" when you are with Isabell, and we was almost going a second time but that didn't happen. I can admit that i can't sing, but i like it. And in a norebang i don't care ;). (for you who don't know, norebang is a korean karaoke room)

Lady Gaga - Born this way

When we went to a music store the first thing i thought about was that i had to buy Lady gaga's new c.d. so, well surprise i bough it (i just love her and her music). However what i didn't plan was that i was going to buy Block b's 1st mini album. I only bought it be course there was a poster that you only got when you bought the album. Now it wasn't me who wanted the poster, i hardly even know who they are, but Isabell who already has the album wanted it and she promised me paying the cd later. So i kinda got free music :) and yes they are okay, I will probably start to like their music more when i give them more time.

block.B - New Kids on the Block

And to the end of this post I will update you on my family status. I will be changing family (again) next week. And not only family but also school, so I have only 3 days left in my school now. I think I told you this before, but something I just, I wouldn't want to use the word hate but can come up whit any better one just now, is that I always get the information in the last minutes. Like now my hole life here is going to change and and got to know about it 5 days before :/. Anyway, its nice that my exchange organization hasn't told me anything about this yet. Neither seem my family in Finland got any information.

But i will do another update about the change when it actually has taken place.
