One day before we leave for South Korea tomorrow, and I get a free day at work. It’s a holiday in our province today.

I’ve been reading the South Korea thread at my favorite Pinoy forum to gather more ideas and tips for our trip and I read there that per CNN reports, North Korea is attacking South Korea again. Again. It’s the same news we got before we left for SoKor last 2006, to the point that my mom asked me to cancel my trip (what, and miss the Rain’s Coming showcase??). Why does this happen every time I go there?! 
Although if you ask anyone who is currently living in South Korea right now, they’ll just laugh it off. They said Koreans have been hearing that same news practically everyday since the 1960s.

Weather check: temperatures will go as high as 3 degrees C this weekend and it’s going to be bright and sunny. I guess I’ll have to pull out practically half of the contents of my suitcase, then, since I won’t be needing that many layers anymore (except when we go to Yongpyong ski resort to… take photos. We can’t ski. 
). Three degrees C? I managed 4 degrees C with a light jacket and a thin, long sleeved shirt before, although at some point I had to ask my companions to huddle around me because my teeth were chattering like crazy. I’m armed with two industrial strength bubble jackets, turtleneck sweaters and several mufflers, gloves and hats now, so I should be safe.

In other matters…
Whadya know, the things that we avoid discussing at Soompi is being discussed now. No, I’m not talking about BiKyo - it’s still a taboo topic at this point - I’m talking about Rain’s seemingly decreasing popularity as evidenced by the bad ticket sales of majority of his Legend of Rainism concerts. What we have avoided speaking out loud in the past, someone FINALLY did. As expected, it was the gutsy Bambiina who did. Of course, there will be fans who will continue to be in denial and say, “it’s impossible, according to this and that blah blah blah” and ignore what I said about press releases being exactly just that, press releases. I have actual experience to back it up, in fact I have video and photo evidences of it. I just didn’t want to talk about it openly because nobody else did. I’m already the resident Nimbus Cloud, as it is.
Anyway, since we’ve been discussing that topic here for the longest time, I won’t bother re-posting what I said there in my blog. It’s actually the other way around: the things I said there are things we have already been talking about since… I dunno, 2006?
