My Fairytales..

It was my birthday yesterday, 11th March  but  my friends surprised me with a birthday dinner on 10th March, coffee session on 11th night and a small celebration in the office today.  I hadn't had a clue they were planning this for me, I'm touched!  

My super  birthday cuppies!!

Hello March!! You are my most favourite month of the year, yipeee!!!   Can't say why, but I have a good reason for loving March dearly.  Anyhow, I'm bidding goodbye to February 2013 with this entry.

 

I'm so sorry this post came later than I expected.  I announced in my Instagram that this post will be up last night but I got some issue with IP address and network connection.

I always received compliments on my hair but not many people know that having a long hair is not easy. Count myself lucky at least I don't have split ends but dealing with falls out is very stressful and my hair is quite very dry due to the colouring.  I am relatively did not spend so much on my hair, just a few extra products to boost the texture and make them look a bit healthy.

                                                                                             

Thermal Recovery Shampoo and Conditioner
I've been using this set for 3 months now and I'm loving them. I can feel my hair is not tangle and easy to manage after every wash. The only downside is the smell. I love fruity scent in my shampoo and conditioner especially.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur Hair Repair
I call this HAIR BUTTER because the texture is soooo buttery and it smells nice too. I use this hair mask 2-3 times a week (alternately with my other hair mask) Leave it on for 5 - 10 mins after shampooing and conditioning.

Catwalk Reconstructive Intense Conditioner by Tigi 
Apart from this hair mask did a great job for my hair, it smells like candy I wanted to eat it badly!!  The combination of strawberry  scent and mint leaves my hair feeling fresh all day. 2-3 times a week, alternately with my Schwarzkopf Hair Butter

Fuwarie Hair Treatment Oil  by Kracie 
I apply this oil after I blow dry and styling my hair.

Sala Hair Mist by Kanebo
I use this on my 2nd day hair or whenever my hair smells bad from cooking.

Lucido-L Hair Spray
This is a normal hair spray that holds my hair super great without making them looking stiff and unnatural.

Bed Hair Control Freak (Extra Straight) by Tigi
Loving this product to the max. Whenever I'm rushing after washing my hair and don't have much time to styling it, I apply this on my damp hair, dry them a bit and I'm ready to go! The mousse texture make it easy to apply.

I'm super excited that morning. "We are going to Nami Island!!" I said to myself.  We bought the shuttle bus ticket to Nami Island at Nami Island Seoul Centre Office in Insadong a day before because I read somewhere on the internet, that the bus ticket usually sold out especially on weekends or public holidays. Please note that there are few ways to get to Nami Island and I choose by shuttle bus

How to go Nami Islan Seoul Centre in Insadong :
Just walk along the Insadong street until you see this building


I didn't take any picture of the office. These pictures are taken from http://english.visitkorea.or.kr

Shuttle Bus Ticket fare:

The shuttle departed at 9.30am sharp from Tapgol Park / Pagoda Park in Insadong the next morning. Thank God we bought our tickets earlier because few people failed to board the bus as it was fully booked that morning. 

How to go to Tapgol Park / Pagoda Park
By subway : Get off at Jongno 3 (sam)-ga Station line 5. Exit 5. Walk towards Jonggak

The shuttle but stopped at Gapyeong Wharf and we boarded a ferry to Nami Island. I can't remember exactly how long was the journey from Insadong to Gapyeong Wharf but if I'm not mistaken it was around 2 hours. (Please correct me if I'm wrong )
