Quickie Post + Contest Reminder

You have about 22 hours left till the end of my contest! Link is on the left column.

I went to Hongdae for dinner at an Indian restaurant called Yeti. It's got a really nice atmosphere. You sit on the ground with squishy pillows and watch (I'm assuming) Bollywood music videos. The restaurant is dimly lit so I think it's a nice romantic place to go.
Tim and I ordered the dinner for 2 set and this was part of our dinner... Tandoori chicken and shrimp.


I couldn't resist buying something from Hongdae. There are a lot of stores that sell one of a kind pieces that are hand made. I saw these necklaces at a street stand and they were too cute to pass up! They were originally 17,000won each, but since I got 2, the seller discounted it to 28,000won for both. They're super pretty!
The elephant ring was 7000won and I've seen something similar at Kosney, so I don't think this is one of a kind XD

I hope this inspires some jewellery makers out there! Oh, the seller also makes really cute head bands and hair clips, gonna take a look next time!

cute jewellery!! I miss jewellery in Korea so much -_- I still haven't forgiven myself for losing an earring from the brand MetroCity (from Shinsegae I think). I'll be sending mum on a mission to find them soon, haha.
