It's been exactly a year since me and my friend won a trip to Hollywood

I remember exactly when we were sitting in a taxi and watching our mouths open oddly dressed American people. 

"Omg, I can see her panties ! "

It was pre-Halloween weekend.

We participated to Universal Studios' airguitar video competition thingy 

and accidentally won 5 days trip to Hollywood. 

There were also winners from France, UK and - surpriiise- Korea.

The lady next to me in the first photo spoke quite good English so we got close.

On our last night we had a drinking party at the French kids' hotel room

It was ... exciting night lol

I met those 2 ladies in Korea last summer again.

They wanted to take me out to eat but guess what they asked me to try ?

Dog meat.

It's good for your skin at least !

Well, I said I can't eat it so we headed to some expensive hotel restaurant in Gyeonggi-do.

Ate pasta. 

They made me drink beer cause they knew I'm good at drinking 

 The older sister's husband drove us there by car, also the sisters' kids wanted to meet me but the sons' had work and a girl my age was studying in Philippines at the time... Next year then.

It was nice to drive around and see different places. 

Korea really has amazing landscapes. 

For Some reason the guy ended up to a cafe and noraebang (karaoke) with us.

Me and my host sister wanted to go to a bar in Gangnam with him and his friends but since my host sis' was still underage she had to go home early.

 At the time I still lived alone in a hostel in Hongdae so for me it was okay but didn't wanna go alone with like stranger guys. 

And an hour subway trip from Gangnam to Hongdae wasn't really alluring either so bought 닭강정 chicken instead.

 Love it ♥

The third day in Busan started with "Stone Art" academy.

I was excited about it since I was going there together with Eunsik from my team.

I thought it was my time to shine since the academy was about arts. 

I'm an ex-art student after all !!

But I was completely wrong. 

For an hour we just sat and listened to this famous stone artist grandpa to talk about his life.

In Korean. 

Eternal painting. The stone powder never changes its color. 

Wanted to try it ㅜㅅㅜ

Eunsik and me were just taking selca and talking in kakaotalk to each other all the time .. 

The grandpa probably saw it cause later he asked where Eunsik was from and when he replied "Daegu" Grandpa burst out laughing and said he thought Eunsik was foreigner too since he was getting so well along with me.

I was supposed to blog way more often but I've a good reason for my silence -

I GOT A JOB !

I started working at Hesburger -local burger restaurant- few weeks ago.

It's not the best nor the easiest work but what else can you get without any experience or education in Finland ? - nothing. 

Actually the pay isn't THAT bad.

 I get like 8e for an hour, that's 80% of the normal pay cause I'm still a trainee

The work takes a lot of energy or maybe it's cause I've never ever worked before

especially cause for the last 6 months I've done nothing but partied.

After the 8 hours shifts I've been like dead tired,

 right after coming back home I usually only eat and go to bed. 

Anyway it's much easier to wake up in the morning when you know you'll get paid for that !

Really it's like the best feeling to finally waste the money on something you've wanted and know that you've worked hard to get it. 

The second day of the camp in Busan !

The monsoon season started and oh gosh ..

I've never seen so hard rain before. 

Not even in Thailand or Vietnam

We were supposed to go to the beach and have some kind of water sports 

but that program got cancelled due to the rain ...

-u know korean rain isnt good for ur hair or skin cause it's slightly acidic or sth

So we went to a Marine Museum ! 

Didn't take any photos of the fishies tho ... 

Some magazine wanted to interview me so they also asked us to pose with that random boat lol

The interviewer just asked things about Finland and asked me to compare it to Korea and so on

It took so much time so our group didn't have time to walk around the whole place 

(ㅡ ㅈ ㅡ'')

The little baby bird grabbed to my friend's shirt suddenly

Me and my room mate EunBin had a little misunderstanding on the first day so both of us thought the other didn't like the another one. This day for some reason we got really close.
Accidentally we had the same clothes, ''Couple look''
and we were just taking selca in the buss all the time

I had really good luck that EunBin was also studying in the same university where the camp was held.
So she logged in to the univ's  fast wifi connection from my phone cause she didn't need it.
Oh yeah I was happy, most foreigners didn't have any kind of net connection there ~
