Forever Arone at N Tower 26.12.12

Happy Boxing Day everyone!!!
too bad they dont have a boxing day in korea :/ no massive sales or anything! but then again, everythings always on "sale" ...

So today i decided to go trekk it up to Namsan Tower!
Namsan Tower is this extremely tall centre point tower that makes sydneys centre point tower look like a matchstick.

(i actually dont know if its taller or not.. but it defs has a better view! :D )

I woke up extra early to go Namsan which was super hard cause ive been sleeping at 4am these days -- why you ask? Well my genius of a sister left her thesis to the last minute (literally) and shes been allnightering for the past few days trying to do her research and write it at the same time ==

Me motivating Mary... with a midnight snack :3 

Anyway.... I decided to take the cable car up to the tower cause its purty! But i had to walk like 10 minutes uphill to get to the damn cable place -.-

N Tower!! so close but so far...

In the cable car :D

VIew from cable

so far from the city zomggggg

It was only a 2 minute ride.. but it was literally the loudest 2 minutes of my life @@ the carriage was packed with this japanese tourist group and they were so amazed :L

THen finally got off and climbed the stairs up to N towerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

YAY!

being a tourist :3

finally made it!

view!

At the concourse of the tower, theres this big area where couples can do their thing...

these are "heart chairs" very cute ... you get it? 

THESE CHAIRS DONT WORK WITH ONE PERSON :C USELESS lul 

ALl the trees and fences were covered in locks and chains made by couples so their love may last foreverand everrr

quite preety!

so forever arone ㅠㅠ

:'c

 i had never felt so lonely in my life! haha. All these couples were like holding hands and taking photos while i was here OBAAAMAAAA SEELFFFFFF
after the quick tour around happy dappy land, i couldnt take it anymore :L so i headed inside the tower.

tadaa

Inside, there were all these little stalls of cute things, there was even a mini gallery... there was this one image that kinda resembled me at the time hahaj

i need friends -.-

THen, i got into this masssivee elevator which a huge tv screen for a ceiling! It was like one of those 4D movie things :D

the ceiling of the elevator. THe elevator went soo fast.. we were already at the top in like 2 seconds. my ears even popped!

The top of the tower is pretty much all windows! the view was so amazing! but i rekon it would have been better if i went at night.

chyea

hazy but pretty :D 

puny humans muahaha

and all the windows had all these places and cities and how far they were away from here.

only 8000 km away from home :3

*^^* 

After staring out into the giant city for ages, i went down to eat at the food court place :D

i got a "new york style hotdog with herby chips" 

THe food was kinda bad :/ it just tasted like cheap hotdogs and oil...
dont order anything un-korean in korea... it just tastes so wrong :'c

But dessert was amazing! :D THey had a Coldstone there which is like a Coldrock :L
I got the peppermint one. THey put in choc chips and brownie chunks! SO GOOD.

mmmmm

THe icecream was amazing except it was super cold that day, i think around -12 degrees and since i was up in the mountains, it was even colder.. i couldnt feel my face or hands :L

SO i found a nice quiet spot at the base of the tower and just basked in the sun OBAMA SELF. :L

quiet place :D

i may be smiling but i was in so much pain from the cold... 

more view covered by trees :D

WHile i was basking in the sun, half sleeping, half smothering my face in icecream, i found a family of ginger mountain cats!! ZOMG
So like the crazy cat lady i am, i went up to them and finally made some friends 8D

mr cat :3 mew

this was the baby of the pack 

hes like.. "get away from us, beast!"

They came so close! :O the little one started playing with my camera strap hehehe
but then i got scared i was going to get rabies so i ran away :p

AFter about like 5 more minutes, my face couldnt stand the cold anymore so i headed back downhill to catch the bus home. THe buses are so cute! theyre like caterpillar buses 8) heheh

bye caterpillar bus and namsan and its cats :L

Later that night, i went back to Hongdae to buy these really nice stockings i saw last time and headed back home where I had dinner with my sister and Jeremy.

ordered a pipi noodle soup and a redbean, rice ball soup to share. so gooodddd

THen after we got home, mary continued with her thesis and i had to stay up to keep her company and make sure that she didnt end up watching dramas...
she kept on impersonating something from SUmmer Heights High .. was all like "MISSS MISSS MISSSS" in her leb accent .. I DONT GET IT :c

I swear all these allnighters are making me more crazy..
this is me wearing a cupholder crown singing "IM THE KING OF THE WORLD"

......

SOME ONE SAVE ME e.e my eye bags are reaching my chin ..
