The first adventure after disembarking from the 14 hour flight (we hit wind and were nearly 2 hours late) was finding the darn campus. My driver circled and circled while I groggily peered out the window and was of no help at all until we finally arrived at our destination: Ehwa's graduate school dorms.
Our rooms are... well, let's just say that they make Dunster's accomodations look luxurious. Space wise at least.
^ But, it's clean, and has a "fun sized" balcony (my first reaction: THIS IS NOT A BALCONY, THIS IS A LEDGE WHERE PEOPLE CAN COMMIT SUICIDE!!). I'm sure I'll get used to it :)
For my first day, I've been surprisingly productive, getting internet up and running... wait, that's all I've done. No, that's not true, I guess I took three naps and re-read Twilight when I couldn't get the internet to work (it's the only book I brought for the flight--don't ask). And, I went to the bookstore (also called the COOP) and bought The Alchemist which I've heard good things about.
I'm pretty excited to get settled in, start my internship at KISTEP (an international science and technology think tank (I'll be working in the Policy and Planning division)), and begin classes with my Korean classmates!
I'm off to take another nap; till later,
Sara
