I'm BACK from the Bloging!

What the hack?

Has it really been that long? I know. Sorry about long absence. I'd like to think that i have been on vacation since my last post, I been gone for almost three months. Although our trip was 4 weeks, just haven't had a chance to post!! Since last post in April, I had a lot of thing change in my life such as finshing school, graduation and other thing busy days since then. Bigist thing I did was traveled with my family.

Let me count... I came to USA in 1995.. OMG it's twelve years already!!! Time goes so fast. I remember that I left with mid-night jet plane on Seoul with tears on my eyes. Since then leaving in the USA..studying, going to school and busy life does lifestyle did forget everything about my old home.

Anyway, long time ago my parents promised me if I finshed the school then going the the korea for vacation. So this was finally happen! This was first time as family going to Korea..I was really sad(why I think that?), joy and happy. We had really fun in korea. We stay for almost four weeks, the trip was goes so fast. The weather was really hot in korea like a we are in jungle, sticky and unpleasent. But we met our relatives and saw my lovely grandmother. We had areally good trip.

Some of pic I took from Korea trip. Youguys can visit my Flickr see more pic I took.


We left the LAX on June 23 on monday mid-night plan. You can see my excited expression. My brother and mom also escited moment in the plane.

Next day, I went to Korean royal palace called "Kyung Buk Kung". The place that King and Queen lived. The place is really cool and huge I what live like a king someday. Also you can see the royal performance played on back ground.

Really cool chimey inside of the palace. It's decorated with 12 thing that king and queen prayed for longer life.
