I'M GOING TO SOUTH KOREA!!!

1st December, 2011 (9:30pm )

Hey Everyone!

GUESS WHAT?!
I'm going to Korea on the 8th to 29th of December.
I can't wait!!
I've already packed and everything.
I just hope the plane tickets aren't a scam. Then I will have a mental breakdown.
Well, moving on.

I kinda feel bad for leaving my dad and my dog behind whilst my mum and I have a good time in Korea. But no worries, I will make it up for them. I've already built the christmas tree for them :)

I know it looks really dodgy.. but I learnt that you need small streamers(is that what it's called?? the red and white thing on the tree) to decorate on a 3ft christmas tree. And well, the paper you see stuck on the tree says 'DONT TOUCH' and I've hid it from view by a jumper so it would surprise them. Well, the lights are really pretty but it wasn't turned on then.

EEEKkkk!! I get to go to KOREA!!!

JOANNA - I told you that you weren't the only one. Haha.. I've packed everything, wrote down the schedule and researched a lot.

Okay. A story. Two days ago, which was the 29th of November. It was my last day of year 10!!! YEAH!

Yesterday...
Long story short... we had to take my mum's friend's luggage to her house ... traffic jam... late night... tired... before that.. I went to 2 Dymocks (one in Carlingford and one in the City in george street) and Kinokuniya. It took a lot of walking and searching. But in the end, I found them!! I'm going to read them on the plane :) so i can't wait.

1) Title: Thirteen reasons why
Author: Jay Asher
(I dunno, I heard it was a good book. It's about a girl who suicided because of some people. And then they find her tapes she's been recording about them and they change their ways.)
Here's a link: http://www.thirteenreasonswhy.com/index.php


I got the last copy of the book :) haahahhaa!!!
2) Title: The truth about forever
Author: Sarah Dessen
(Apparently, the author Sarah Dessen is really popular in America)
Here's the link to her website and read the blurbs: http://sarahdessen.com/

<--- I don't like the cover.. kinda freaks me out.. but all well.. I got the BOOK!!

It's about.. I duno.. Here's a description:







Macy’s summer stretches before her, carefully planned and outlined. She will spend her days sitting at the library information desk. She will spend her evenings studying for the SATs. Spare time will be used to help her obsessive mother prepare for the big opening of the townhouse section of her luxury development. But Macy’s plans don’t anticipate a surprising and chaotic job with Wish Catering, a motley crew of new friends, or … Wes. Tattooed, artistic, anything-but-expected Wes. He doesn’t fit Macy’s life at all–so why does she feel so comfortable with him? So … happy? What is it about him that makes her let down her guard and finally talk about how much she misses her father, who died before her eyes the year before? Sarah Dessen delivers a page-turning novel that carries readers on a roller coaster of denial, grief, comfort, and love as we watch a broken but resilient girl pick up the pieces of her life and fit them back together.


Yeah,, I normally don't read romance novels. I prefer crime and adventure but I heard this was a good book. Dunno.. perhaps I'll review it later.

Um.. what else?
I don't know what to give to my relatives..
Some australian stuff?
Like what?? Kangaroo skin(but i don't want to get stopped in the security)
I've already given them an expensive watch, kangaroo hats( the cowboy looking ones)

The only idea that I can think of is Tim Tams. Can you help me out? Please, I'm dying to know.

JOANNA - Remember you love the word 'succulent'.. I had to take this pic to show it to you. It says
"Salivating? Over succulent steaks? That's your beeflex"


Every time I go past that... I want to eat a steak.

Cheers,

Sharna and Sam (who's sleeping next to me)
