Another update of Week 6 in Korea so far! 🙂 Once again as a prewarning, such posts are more for me to remember my daily adventures in Korea, and aren’t particularly interesting so feel free to skip!!
The week kicked off with us going to the cat cafe! I asked Zenn if she wanted to meet for lunch or smth and in the end we met up in the late afternoon and she brought us to this study cafe cum cat cafe place called Table A. It was really sweet and cosy!
The concept was kind of like one cat per table so we got this cute kitty here.
I love Korea cafes because of how conceptual they are! And the cafes almost always make it kind of a study space with power plugs and wifi, they never chase you out. I couldn’t say the same about Singapore cafes though. This particular cafe just happens to double as a cat cafe as well ❤
We sat there and swooned over the kitty for a while. It was really adorable, clambering all over us and our stuff, couldn’t stop playing with my camera lens and kept putting one paw over it like ‘it’s mine bish’ and fell asleep on top of Zenn’s bag and coat, rendering her rather useless as she can’t take out anything to study LOL. Unfortunately i had to go for Korean lessons so I left not long after 😦 It was nice though!
Table A Address: 서울특별시 마포구 창전동 6번지 그레이스빌딩 1층
Oh oh and that was also the first time i saw trees in full bloom!
On Tuesday, I went to do my own self studying at Coffee Bean outside Gonzaga Hall! I really like that it’s so conveniently located outside our dormitory!!! i just have to walk across the clearing to reach it haha, i’m going to find Singapore so inconvenient after this. It’s ironic how it feels like Korea is so much more convenient and I’ve grown to hate 20-min train journeys in Korea, when in Singapore i had to travel an hour everyday. Haha. I guess we all adapt, for better or for worse.
Coffee Bean inside Sogang was a really nice place to study. Gets a little noisy nearing lunch time with professors and students sitting for meeting, but in the morning it’s nice. 🙂 I studied for a little while before heading over to Myeongdong to meet Liz and Karin!! We walked around a little bit, shopped a bit and ate some 32cm ice cream hahaha although mine fell over 😦
On Wednesday it was again cafe hopping time! We went to a very small home cafe near Edae called Gioia Cafe (pretty sure i spelled this wrong), serving good cheap coffee. Nothing much interesting happened this day HAHAHA sorry the laughter wasn’t really funny orz
Thursday again it was a cafe visit, to Coffee Bean again this time where me and Amber practiced our Korean and chatted about life. Haha. Love this girl man. We got distracted a lot and ended up just gossiping, partly in Korean LOL. After that she said she’ll bring me out to dinner and treated me to food <33333 sweet unnir she is.
We went to our korean classes and did some grocery shopping afterwards to get ready for the field trip!! Read about the field trip post here.
Post is mostly bout cafes so i’m classifying it under cafe hopping~~
