Wind that could blow you away

At the moment, I'm addicted to this hilarious Korean variety called '1 Night 2 Days' (Casts: Kang Hodong, Lee Seung-gi, MC Mong, Kim C, Eun Jiwon and SuGeun), where they went to travel around Korea on a shoestring budget. There are games to decide who would be sleeping indoors or outside in the tent in the freezing cold and who would receive the money for foods. I've retired from Korean varieties for quite some time now but this is the best and wackiest show that managed to allure me back into the scene.

Anyway, this time they went to Udo Island, where the wind was so strong that it could pierce your skin and literally blows you away. Within this Udo Island, they went to JiduChungsa and climbed a cliff. The wind was so vigorous that it almost toppled Seung-gi off the cliff. Instantly, that reminds me of the time when I went to Cliff of Moher in Galway.

At this very particular spot, you won't be able to stand still and if you're super thin, you'll definitely collapse. The wind was too powerful. We even had a hard time trying to take a picture because we couldn't stay still. What an incredible experience. On top of that, just when we were about to head back to our bus, we were hit by hailstones in the freezing cold! It hurt like someone throws small pebbles at you...

This was taken during my 1st year. The only worth place to go when you're in Ireland (but that's because I found Dublin to be unexciting and I haven't been to Cork yet) :P

Annoying sound

18. What kind of sounds are the most annoying?

Bang on my bedroom door. Some people just can't knock nicely and gently. They'd go to my room and went "bam bam" on the door. As if i was deaf! Ok i might be temporarily deaf when i'm listening to my headphone. However, when i'm asleep, i find it the most grating thing ever to be waken up by a loud bang! I can get serious headache afterwards because of the surprise wake up call....

People hammering their keyboards like they're furious or something....

Edinburgh

In Old Town, this is the type of building you'll see. Ancient. Pavement made from stones. Tons of cafe.

At Edinburgh castle. If i'm not wrong, it's the castle of William Wallace, the great Scottish warrior. The one in "Braveheart". I seriously need to watch this film considering the rave reviews about it.

Ok kecacatan telah berlaku setelah resizing dlm photobucket cis.. Nevertheless this is the most beautiful garden i ever went to... Princess Street Garden.. It used to be a volcano then. It erupted and dead for good. It overlooked the Edinburgh Castle. Loads of people were lazing around in the garden. Across the Princess Street is the... popular shopping places :D Heaven... Knackered from plenty of shoppings? Have a rest at Princess Street Garden ;)

Well i didn't go climb up the hill.... (Arthur's Seat).. because we were tired... We walked from Royal Mile to where the Arthur's Seat is. My mum didn't have the energy to climb it. It'd be fantastic if we had gone up but... i think this is already majestic :) If there's a Hindi music, i could have probably roll and roll on the ever beautiful vast green field... :P

Outside our apartment. It was crap. It looked like cheap flat. Once you reach the inside, you'll be gobsmack! It's beautifully furnished. Complete with washing machine, dvd player, books, two double beds, kitchen. It's a perfect family holiday. It's just like the apartment that we got in Swiss!!! Let's not talk about the creepiness. The apartment is perfectly fine. It's just that it gave me a chill down my spine on the first day. I don't know why but i always have a weird feeling when i went to an apartment, which had been deserted for awhile. The same thing happened when i was in Swiss. Ask the girls about it...

Someone looked happy :D

Edinburgh is definitely a place i'd love to visit again. 4 days were not enough to explore Edinburgh *____*
