This is one of the moments when I was in South Korea during Christmas vacation and I was bored this midnight but I wanna share this with you.

My parents and I were in Lotte World and we roamed around there then I saw an arcade so I said "Wait! I wanna go there" and my parents said sure.

There was a shooting game that I wanted to there earlier and it was there so I asked my parents if I can play and they gave me 3,000 won. I insert the money and started to shoot. But I didn't notice that there was a couple (I think they were foreign as well I'm not to sure.) that were watching me.

One guy said "I don't wanna play, it's a waste of money."

After a couple of tries, I got the first can down.

That same guy said "Ok! I wanna try that.".

I got the second can down with the last bullet and I ended up winning two prizes. Then I left the shooting booth.

I was about to leave the arcade but I saw another shooting game but with darts and balloons. I aske my parents for money again and they gave me 3,000 won again. After I inserted the money, I popped three balloons using three out of five darts in my first try. The lady gave me the two darts that I missed and I got one of the balloons popped on my second try while the other one just missed then she gave me a rabbit key chain. There was a group of Korean boys who were in the booth beside me, trying to play the game. According to my mom, one of the boys played the game and ended up shooting at nothing.

My parents came back to the place where I did the shooting game. They were watching the guy who said that he'll try it. He even played at the position where I played the game. We were watching him and he kept missing and muttering swear words which made me laugh quite bit. But eventually, we left because we knew that the guy won't win anything. But he might know that he is a winner at heart for trying. Yeah, encouraging right?

Time passed and we were about to go back to the hotel but I told them that I wanted to sing at the karaoke. At first, they didn't agree but after some begging, they allowed me to. It only costed 500 won per song. My mom had two 500 won coins so I had two songs to sing. Originally, I wanted to sing Growl by EXO and Mr. Chu by Apink but since I can't find it and my parents might get impatient so I get to sing what I know, like "Meh, screw it!"

The first song I found was Miracles In December by EXO. It was one of my many favorite songs of Kpop. When it played, it obviously appeared in Hangul so I used my instincts in singing it instead of reading it. Surprisingly, it turned out well XD My score was somewhere in the 80s... close enough.

The second song was Whatcha Doin' Today by 4Minute. I didn't sing terribly on purpose, it's just I didn't know the song well enough. I got the pitches wrong, anyways. When the song finished, I knew I'll get a low score and it was somewhere in the 60s. It was the lowest score I got my karaoke history but at least I'm fine with it.

That day was awesome. We got in some rides, won some prizes and I even got to say hi to a ghost in a haunted house before it can scare the fudge of my parents (it wasn't my idea to get in there XD). At least, I had fun.

Yeah. There were more moments during my trip in Korea but this is one of my personal favorites.
