Waiting for Godot??? ㅋㅋㅋ

Of course...Godot did come, eventually.^^ 
After one-hour long of experiencing an excruciating cold night at an open plaza around Seoul station, I had no options but to keep on walking away from the station where I could find the still-operating 심야버스 or night bus.
The positive side of being stranded at night was the fact that I could wander around the city with less people and cars..to see what it's like at night. This is 숭례문 or the famous Namdaemun Gate (The Great South Gate) of Seoul--once burnt down & now resurrected.
Ok...kept on walking until I found a bus-stop where I clearly could convince myself to stay put..and be patient..that the good things would come eventually...like the coming of the (K)night bus I was waiting and hoping for. Yup, like waiting for Godot. I felt like I knew it surely would come..but boy..the bus-interval really knocked me down.ㅋㅋㅋ
Had it not been so cold (minus 4 Celsius), I would've just fine...enjoying the night...being alone at the sidewalk..in Seoul. Though I knew where I was..but the feeling of being 'there' stranded...really got me shivering.
But..DID I enjoy it? Well. I SURELY DI ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
To my surprise, I was really enjoying my time 'waiting for GODOT'
It's an empty street of Seoul that kept me enjoying 'THE' experience.

Hyundai Card Music Library...that I Can NOT go into....ㅠㅠㅠ

Right...simply because I don't have the card...^^
So..I just might as well take the picture while passing this enticing library.
It's located in Itaewon...and ...boy..I wish I could go inside and splash myself into the realm of the collections that I learned....got to be one of the complete ones in Seoul.
But..again..it's only a dream. I wonder.....

A Glimpse of A Bridge and Its Wonders Beneath

Moments as I was walking .....passing through the bridge and...enjoying what's underneath.
A recollection of what's in store from a simple walk home from work.^^
The fish-net-like suspension. Dizzyingly high.
A gem in winter...found underneath the bridge.
A gem in winter...found in the city night lights.
A gem in winter...found in the unique design of the bridge.

Frozen Han River (part 6): Frozen in Styles

As usual, I made a compilation of pictures taken during today's crazy trip to the the Floating island at Banpo bridge in Han River. Who would've thought that an impromptu short trip would be this cool and cold^^. Going straight after work! Instead of going home, why not satisfy the curiosity of what Han river would look like.....in the stillness of white surface.

Frozen Han River (part 5): Keep On Swimming or Strolling

Han river could be so inviting for some..to plunge themselves into..especially during summer...and that's why..this particular lifebuoy was set up in the designated places...where accidents such as drownings are prone to occur.
Okay..I kept on strolling along the riverbank...and found some dried tall grasses...dancing to the incoming winds..../ It's not much..but at least..this was the vegetation I could see along the road...
See? No one's there. I was a bit ...well...confused myself..as to why I ended up being there. Not that I didn't remember it, it's just that I was thinking of going home instead of wandering further away from the spot where I came from. That means...I had to walk..much farther..to reach the bus stop. But, they..that's a part of the journey...of exploring Han river during winter.
Some apartments are being constructed. I just simply cannot imagine how much they'd cost. I mean..just look at them, they are all facing the river..which according to Fengshui..it's one of the ways to blend harmoniously with nature...to get some luck in return. *oh, well.
again...a self portrait..of my shadow...
...Got enough of freezing myself to the bones...and it's time for me to go home.....by bus. Not by subway..since the latter would require me to walk...and walk...before reaching the station.
So, the only possible way for me to go home faster..was by taking a bus from UNDER the bridge. Yep...the brigde has an elevated road and the one beneath it. It's Banpo bridge....
Saw this read ball....frozen in time...and snow..
Banpo Bridge...reflected onto the surface of the river. Oh, I spotted some ducks live under the bridge..and that's pretty amazing considering the cold weather and freezing water they live at. gee....but, that's the mystery of nature. 
*been a great 2-hour journey to the river bank near Banpo bridge*

사소한 뉴스이지만.....It's Trivial yet Impoorttaaantttt

아마도 다른사람에겐 사소한 일이지만 노량진역에서 1호선 9호선 왕래...갔다 왔다 하는 사라에게는 너무 중요하고 화제가 주목될 만한 일이죠.
이것은 바로 1.9호선의 연결하는 환승지하통로의 개통소식이죠.^^
저같은 사라은 매주 여러번 갔다 왔다 해서 얼마나 고마운지...^^ ㅇㆍ...신난다.
Asyiiiiiiik banget. Nggak perlu keluar stasiun lg utk transfer....I don't need to go out gor transfer anymore.^^
