Expected Unexpected TRAVEL 001- this is it!

At the age of 22, surprisingly God gave me this wonderful gift, to travel abroad!
Yeah! Hello Korea!

I'm truly blessed to met and more bless to meet different people- around the pacific- a one of a life time experience.

I had the chance to share my artistic thoughts, feelings and me- naks nice one.

Discovering different culture is shocking, at the same time I have learned how to appreciate them without any comparison on my race- life time values.

Hey I just love everything about the Pacific Rim Park!

_______d^^b_______

Third year in college:

I can say I'm not a normal stud since I have so many things in my hands- my mind. I always have different views, a lot. And I don't know why I always think that there are so many surprises ahead of me.

ONE unexpected gift I received from God was when I met the "gang michiko (michigan+korea)", the exchange students. I never thought that the two of them will be my good friends. And until now, they were very helpful. This is one proof...

Before I leave, I asked 이상인 the h plus 5 w's in my mind before I fly hep hep away hooray... And he made this reply (through mail of course)...



... If you take bus, it takes 1hour and 10 mins and fare will be 4 to 7 dollars.

If you take subway, it takes 45 mins and fare will be 3 to 4 dollars.

I suggest you take subway.

You can find subway terminal easily in the airport.

In case you cant find it, you can ask people to help you.

People in uniform, I sure they can English well and also there is information center in the airport.

And I think it is better you have Korean money. Anyway you go to Jeju and you will stay there for month so you need some Korean money.

So this is what you need to do.

1. You will arrive at Incheon international airport at 5AM

2. There is Subway terminal of Incheon international airport. It is 50 m away from the air port, it will take 1 min.

3. Now you need to make choice.

Option one is you take a subway that you dont need to transfer.

If you take this option then you need to walk about 670m to Kimpo airport when you

take off the subway.

Option two is you take a subway that you need to transfer.

If you take this option then you need to transfer and you need to take a bus to get to

Kimpo airport.

I recommend you to choose option one. If you dont bring heavy luggage.

And this way is a little bit chipper.

4. I cant find which lane you should take, it just said rail of airport.

This lane will take you Kimpo airport.

When you take this lane, you need to take off the subway after 5 station.

It will take about 33mins.

5. Last step is taking walk to Kimpo airport. It is about 670m and take you 10 mins.

You can see a blue airplane mark, there is Incheon international airport.

And you can see white lane, it is the lane you want to take.

Follow the number and you can see the other blue airplane mark, there is Kimpo airport. You dont need to transfer.

This option will take you 50 min and cost you 3400 korean money.

It is equivalent to 3 dollar and 30 cent. (USD)

It is equivalent to 132 PHP.

And the time table of the subway is that there are 4 trains every hour.

3, 27, 39, 51

Example.

5:03

5:27

5:39

5:51

I guess this is enough for you. You dont need to worry. They will help you kindly.

I write something in Korean below. In case, they cant understand you.

I hope you have Korean font.

안녕하세요. 제 친구가 인천국제공항에서 김포공항으로 가야 합니다. 인천공항에서 공항철도를 타고 김포공항으로 가려고 하는데요. 혹시 이 친구가 이 글을 보여주면 좀 도와주시길 간곡히 부탁 드립니다. 환승을 해야 하는 철도편 말고 직통으로 가는 철도편을 알려주시면

감사하겠습니다. 좋은 하루 되세요.


이상인


Well, God is amazing.

And I'll always praise Him!

with all my soul!



And now the BIG SURPRISE...

My Visa has been denied!

Final Piece 0310


not just an art...
“Architecture is a craft of progression and innovation”
-
Green is “in”, reason why protecting the environment is vital. Eco-design today is an urgent challenge to make the world a better place to live in. Our
designs evolves and find its own meaning... like a city, from basic shelter needs of the people into an intelligent structures, taking into consideration not only mans needs but also the reciprocate care for the Environment.

Everything Starts at BDO *d^___^b*

BULAGA- Surprisingly I'm not surprise when I saw Roxan earlier. Haha, I don't know why. Maybe I'm used to her presence. Hindi kami nag-usap, at all. After, everything went weird and weirder. She became the starting point. I consider her an omen na nga. We- I bumped into our- my old senior friend, older classmate, respected grade school teacher, wizardians, fellow archi- blood, and one I consider a happy-go-lucky pal. I felt like I'm really going! 4:38:01 pm my passport is ready!


Anyway, nasa bank ako to deposit my membership fee for the United Architects of the Philippines Graduate Auxiliary.

The One City, 용유∙무의 문화관광레저 복합도시




One "Mega" City- I love how it was presented. The transitions was perfectly good. I love the effects! And because of my amazement, hehe, I forgot about the design's details . Just so fund watching it.

Una ko itong napakinggan sa bahay. Sumunod, sa kaparehong araw sa Pioneer's Office. Hindi ko lubos maisip kung bakit naman talagang natutuwa ako sa kantang to. Hindi ko masasabing paborito to dahil marami pa namang magagandang kanta na gusto ko. Ewan! Tama lang talaga sa pakiramdam... para ka lang sumusunod sa ihip ng hangin- sa bawat pagtalun ng nota...
I'm a new soul I came to this strange world Hoping I could learn a bit but how to give and take But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear Finding myself making every possible mistake La, la la la la...
Yun yun eh!

Relaxing Music for you, our dear friend (040710)





The sound is light and wonderful... and like this music, how I pray I can make him feel better. Dear God, his still young for the pain/s his feeling. Why? He still want to fight. I saw it in his eyes. Through his simple gestures towards us and the initiative of welcoming and sitting in front of everybody even if his hurting. He's still breathing Your blessings. It was a moving experience. I felt really sorry for his mother when I saw her secretly covering the pain in her heart. How can I help him- them? What can I do? He have so much dreams... so much plans... so much story to make in life. But I believed, always, that Your plans is much greater... beautiful. But like the others, I'll always pray that he deserve a longer days- years to serve You. He's one of the good children You have. So please, Dear Healer, our God, let it be. Make a good smile to his face as he walk, every tomorrow. Amen
