So while only four of us took the train to Busan and we met up with another friend there, who is Korean but was raised in Kazakhstan, and she was a great help when we need to figure out how to book tickets a few times. We met up with her on Saturday and we ...

Last weekend, I was finally able to travel to Busan. There were four of us, three of whom are from Kazakhstan so three of them spoke Russian amongst themselves while I was left confused half the time. Also among the three of us, I am an early riser, and I like to make plans and ...

May 5th is children’s day in Korea so I had no class and every school in the country is closed, but I’m not fully sure if offices are closed. So I wanted to go to Secret Garden inside the Changdeokgung place but my friend had work to do so I ended up going with two ...

I don’t know if I ever mentioned in my previous posts but the SNU campus is ridiculously big. It is a whole city in itself, it has a literal bus going around the campus and its own ”SNU STATION.” Today, I went hiking on campus. The starting point was the engineering building, which is a ...

So this quarter I am taking 12 credits, and I’m only taking elective classes. So I guess I will give you an overview of those classes: Feminist Aesthetics and Arts – I have come to love the teaching style of my professor for this class. The way she teaches new concepts is so energetic throughout ...

This semester, I am taking 4 classes to reach Drexel’s 12 credit minimum. This is my first semester taking anything less than 19 credits, so it feels like I have some free time for a change. So, I thought I would tell you about the wonders of SNU course registrations.  Course registration at SNU is ...
