Hi, so the title of this entry pretty much seems it up.
I was in school from 9am-9pm today with a few short breaks in between.

| The Blue Room- the room for us GMBA students to hang out in since our building is pretty much used by executives from big companies in Korea, we should only study or talk loudly here. |
The 1st 2 weeks of a new semester have always been slacked for me but this is ONLY day 2. Yet, I feel as though I’ve been in school for a long time. Back to the rigour of being a business school student where you have group presentations and projects and assignments due for almost every module. When the normal work load for a student is 15 credits a semester while I have 21.5.
But it’s alright…just slightly after a month, I’ll have a 3-day week.
Today started off with Organizational Behaviour class with a rather cool professor and it was more or less an introductory class. Lunch was spent with my Marketing Management group in the cafeteria of the Student Union Building where I had some pork dish for 2,500원. The pork was more like a side dish rather than a main dish and I was left hungry in no time -.-

| I don’t recommend this dish. |
We had some time left before our next class so we sat in the park and brainstormed for a new product for our project before going for our Ethics class which almost fried our brains for the next 3 hours. After class, my group brainstormed again for another 2 hours before I had 1 hour of dinner break before my Korean class from 7 - almost 9pm.

What a loooooooong day. I was actually contemplating dropping Korean class because I don’t welcome the extra workload and I thought that after a year of Korean language classes, I was done with studying Korean. But nope, I’m now in the advanced class with just 2 classmates haha. One’s a Korean who grew up in Canada while the other is a Korean-German. So if any of us drops the class, the class might be cancelled. But given that it’s a really small class, we get more individual attention and we get to talk about other stuff too. And I figured that while people have to pay to attend Korean classes at Yonsei, it’s provided FOC for us and we will be learning Business Korean too. So yes, I shall continue with Korean classes for the next 1.5 years.
Ok, I’m really tired and I haven’t done anything since my last class other than printing my notes.
National Day Reception tomorrow! It’s gonna be my first time meeting the other Singaporeans in Seoul :)

Condition : Apartment (7th floor out of 22 floors) (3 Bedroom / 1 bathroom / 1

I’m moving this month to a 3-room apartment near the subway station of Independence
Gate(독립문), at just one stop by bus to the back gate of Ewha University (이대 후문).
And I’m thinking to let one bedroom with a bed to a female whose native language is
English, Spanish or Chinese. (Chinese preferred). I can speak Chinese, Spanish and
English. We could language-exchange as well if you want. As I’m a lady in early 40’s,
I prefer a housemate not to be too young.
The room is not furnished, but I can lend you a bed and sheets, and you can use my
current kitchen table as a desk, because my new apartment already has a kitchen table
fixed. You can use kitchen, refrigerator (but mine is small one), washing machine. If
you are interested, feel free to contact me to or 010-8510-
8001. But I can show you the house from 1 October after moving in.
Thanks for the offer but I’ve decided to stay put in my dormitory :)
