As usual, been a long while since the last post. I don't expect anything more from myself, not really. It's spring 2010, and I am currently in the great city of Seoul, in the Republic of Korea, the Land of Morning Calm. It's actually really amazing, the experience of a lifetime, and one I hope to repeat when I can really enjoy it, with family and friends.
I'm at Yonsei University, one of the top private schools here in Korea. It's fairly huge, and dates back into the eighteen hundreds. While I expected it to be the Korean version of UA, it is very much more impressive than that, with excellent faculty and a fantastic group of students. Taking some major adjustments to get used to the culture, but I don't have any real complaints. It's strange to share food from a common dish, but it kind of feels right. Likewise, the flat chopsticks are difficult, but once you adjust... I found it hard to eat with a fork the other night. I can't wait to get more into everything, so that I don't feel as out of place. Looking forward to the last chills of winter to fade and spring to come in full bloom.
We'll see how the semester goes...
