While in Nepal (Part 4 - Day 7 and 8)

It is a little late now... but better late than never.

I said goodbye to Nepal earlier today.

But first, a recap.


Day 7
Neha's mom was worried about my lonesome adventure -- I was planning to go explore parts of Kathmandu by myself -- not much, just Thamel and the Royal Palace museum... so instead I slept in. Kekeke, oh how I love my sleep.

We then packed and I realized that I wouldn't have another chance to buy last minute souvenirs. So yeah, off I went on my short and fun adventure. I had plans to go buy 2 shirts and 4 hats in Thamel... I returned with 1 shirt and 12 hats. OHHHHHH, the shopper's remorse that I have.

Oh wells, much to late for such regrets. I finished packing and later that evening, Neha's mom picked us up some pizza from a place that their family frequently orders from.

Pizza by lantern light on the floor :) Pizza was delicious and the talks were fun. Neha's dad opened up some wine -- what a classy family! Last chance to eat some momos -- oooooh, they were so delicious and filling, I'll miss them :(

Also, Neha's mom made a traditional Nepali fried donut... the name slips my mind, but it was also, like most everything I've eaten here in Nepal, delicious!

Finished a Bollywood film... Mausam... Can't say I cared too much for the plot because of the inconsistencies and questions... but... the actor was oh so gorgeous, haha.


Day 8
Woke up, last minute packing, last lunch. Sad times man, sad times.

Neha's family was oh-so-nice and everyone was so caring and generous and yeah, I had a great experience in Nepal. Needless to be said, this experience only makes me more thirsty for adventure and travel.

Arrived in Incheon after what felt like an eternity of a flight -- no really -- if there was one thing that would prevent me from traveling the world, it would be motion sickness -- not money, not jetlag, not the time, not anything, but the motion sickness I always experience. Curses.

Anyways, Neha and I parted inside the gate, but unfortunately I really didn't get to say a real goodbye.

:( Sad times.

All the readers of this blog and almost everyone who I have befriended in South Korea, knows how integral Neha has become to my life. I can't thank you enough for always having my back and being my constant companion. And always trying to guide me to become a better person -- more responsible, more assertive, more clear-minded...

But don't worry, this will not be the last mention of Neha that I will have on this blog. I anticipate many adventures and trips involving Neha in the future. And when I reminisce about my experiences here in South Korea, Neha will always be at the forefront of my thoughts.

In Neha's words: "See yah on the flip side."

Korean Beauty Products

I could go on a tangent about beauty standards in Korea... but I won't. My goal is to review the beauty products that I have bought and tried here in Korea. In case you've ever visited Korea or ever plan to visit Korea, one of the first things you will notice is the overabundance of makeup stores -- Etude House, Nature Republic, TheFaceShop, Innisfree, Missha, Saem, It's Skin, Hanskin, Aritaum... the list goes on. Most of these stores are easily seen in shopping areas, university areas, and subway stations. In many locations, 2 or more of the same branches can be found within a 1/2 radius... I kid you not. Anyways, my point is that with such an abundance of stores and beauty products, it can be difficult to decide what products are worth it... and which aren't. The below reviews are solely my own opinion and derive from my personal experience with said products, so take from it what you will. *** First off, I'm actually going to review a U.S. product I purc...

You know how you feel when you are conflicted and then you get advice and then u feel unconflicted and then something inspires you or changes your mind and you are confused all over again. Yeah... that's where I'm at again. I thought I was sure about not extending. But even with all my doubts and logic, I still want to extend. Logically, financially, for all the reasonable possible reasons, all signs point to me going home... but the semester is half over and I have barely explored Seoul, much less South Korea, and Asia. My heart wants to stay. The heart wants what it wants. But my brain tells me to go home. But but... I think about it... and when will I ever have the chance to be an undergrad student at Yonsei again? At the end of the day, which decision will I regret more? Going home or staying? Pah..... ___ In other news, updates about my recent activities.... I went on a space tour company the other day/yesterday... not that interesting... after a short nap, ...
