A Poised Posh...:-( ^^

After waiting for one hour, finally I met my kids whom I asked to join me at the mall. I asked them to come to IFC Mall since I thought it would be good to spend time while waiting for dinner and an event that we got to attend to at a nearby venue.

Okay...since it's Christmas eve, shopping mall were packed with people. 

Yes...like in any other places, Natal/Xmas seems to be merrier at the mall.  Having been living for two years in Korea....where Christmas has become some sort of more of a cultural thing or wait...'marketable' occasion, we sort of getting used to getting exposed to it. so, kids..just get on the Santa's cart. 

and...let me take a picture of you.......well, okay...seems that you're distracted by something else... 

and...still...you're not looking at me...

anyway...of course, it's a poised posh. (whatever that means).

Bumped into a Troupe @ IFC Mall

Just got back from the office what could be more entertaining than having myself a little extra time to enjoy 'tis Holiday seasons? So, while waiting for the kids to come, I took my time to look around and ended up encountering the 'commotion'. 

The so-called clown and other characters clad in this season's atmosphere were strolling and trotting around each level of the mall. For what? 

well, none other than to greet the customers and anyone (including me, for sure) who preferred to stay in door in this warm and comfy mall....^^ 

Okay, with the carol songs as the muzak, the atmosphere could not have been more gleeful. 

As the commotion passed me by, I took one last shot of the troupe....circling around the mall again and again.

CCC (Cute Christmas Creatures)

I was waiting for the movie to start @ IFC Mall. And..the only thing I could think of doing is ....getting a closer look at the massive Season's decoration right at the mall's atrium.

Never have I thought that secretly nestled and tucked among the decorations were arrays of cute 'creatures' to celebrate X'mas. 

White small white bear and white pony. 

I just couldn't let my camera do nothing while all the cuteness was right in front of my eyes.

A snowman family. 

A squirrel perched on top of a supposedly mailbox. 

A closer look at the rodent. 

Then..circling about the venue, I discovered two little bunnies. 

A squirrel bringing his pea! 

"Can you help me?" 

Then, the penguins popped along. 

Draped & wrapped in all festivities.  

sheep lost in the pure whiteness made out of cotton.:) 

a wise owl.  

Another type of owl perched on a log.  

It just reminded me of Russian folktale...though I didn't recollect what. 

This is the whole are where the Season's decorations were laid out. 

As I walked out of the atrium, I was greeted by another decorative patterns up to the ceilings. 

From afar, they resembles see-through-skirts or headless mannequins. 

with the brightly lit lamps inside, they sure become one of the impeccable attractions at the rear entrance to the mall. 

and these two tree-turned pillars were other decorative features visible on my way to Youido subway station.

Eyra's Last Weeks @ School

What could be much more entertaining and fun than having a bliss with friends at school.

So..it was snowing outside..so why not go outside and enjoy the snow. Right, girls? 

Right, boys?

Can't imagine that it's Eyra's school front yard. That's huge..especially when it's covered with snow like this. 

역시 Christmas is coming to class, too.

Well, it's more like a cultural thing here in Korea. Everyone seems to celebrate X'mas.

and just look at all of the decorative works that the children made! 

coo, eh? 

and ...what not to miss before the class? indoor exercise...since it's cold outside. 

and a few days from now..it's gonna be a long holiday.

IFC Mall, Youido

Let me just put the pictures first...^^ stories are coming soon.
