1 Jan 2010. Fine weather, happy mood.

I went to see h-k's father today as promised. Well... I would say my first impression of him is that he is a very strict man. So I greeted him with fear in my heart and we sat down to have breakfast. After eating, the interview begin. It was an one-to-one talk so h-k and her mum couldn't hear what I was being asked. So basically I just answered his questions and I would say he isn't really a strict man at all.

Hmm... so after the talk is over, I went to their house with them and h-k started asking me what her father asked me.LOL... I can't tell her as I was told not to tell. So she got petty and acted childish. haha... super cute of her when she acted childish.

So erm..went home at 3pm with good mood. My family wanted to go to Parkway so I company them.

I wanted to buy Andersen's of Denmark ice-cream as I am a member and went to buy it when my family enter cold storage. After eating my ice-cream, I went in this Korean shop called Seoul Mart.

I saw cans of rice wine and I remembered h-k told me to try Korea's rice wine before.Personally, I wanted to try rice wine long ago too. I looked at the price and it's super expensive. The can of rice wine is only 240ml(smaller compared to my favorite baron's) , the alcohol volume is only 7%(lower compared to baron's which is 8.8%) and it cost me $4.90 per can(baron's cost $3+). 

So I took a can of rice wine to the cashier and the person(nationality: Korean) asked me 'how old am I'. So I said 'I am 18' but the cashier told me I can't buy. So I wondered why and I said sorry? She asked me  '18 can buy alcohol?' In my mind I was like wth? So I told her politely that in Singapore, 18 is the legal age to buy wine. So she replied me saying 'oh...because in korea,20 is the legal age.' I wanted to tell her that hey look, this is Singapore here. We don't follow korea law here. But since she finally scanned the barcode, I walked off with my rice wine. 

I was told from h-k that in korea, due to the cold weather, she always drink wine to keep her warm. But she is underage to buy in korea.So her brother will always buy for her. Rice wine is one of her favorite.  After having the first taste, I was like OMG... it's damn nice. I can't believe rice wine is even nicer than my favorite baron's. It's not bitter at all. So I drank it within 20 secs and after 5 mins, my face start to turn red. My mum saw it and she asked why was my face red. I can't hide. So I told her the truth. Surprisingly, she didn't scold me. She just said to me do you know that rice wine is one of the hottest wine? The 'hot' means the temperature.Not the meaning of 'popular'. She went on to say that in korea, people drink because of the extreme cold weather. But in Singapore, it's not suitable to drink rice wine.LOL..

So she went on and on... I only remember the last sentence that she say. She say 'I don't even dare to drink such a strong type of wine..how could you dare?' lol... sorry mum.. I can't tell you that I have been drinking outside. Sorry to h-k too...I promised you I won't drink till Feb but I broke my promise. Hope you can forgive me. Love.
