Day Three

This one should be short.

Wednesday was our first day of classes. We woke up in time for the morning breakfast. The complex provides a free shuttle service to Yonsei, so we were able to take that in the morning. It even dropped us off very close to the Korean language school on campus, meaning we did not have to trek up the epic hill to get to campus. Yay for that.

I got placed in the beginning class after all of that. This was okay with me as I cannot speak Korean. However, after an hour of dying through a lesson on the Korean alphabet, I was so happy that our teacher asked if anyone could read/write Korean because I got moved up to a class where they surpass that whole long process. It meant that I don't get Mia's homework where she got to write the alphabet over and over again, but I'm okay with that.

After our classes, we walked down to the bus stop and found the bus that I thought would get us back to Yonsei. I thought this because if they didn't have that shuttle service, it was the bus that you take to get to the school. What I didn't know, however, is that the bus hits the end of its route on the way back. Meaning that while we were on the bus and thought we were just two stops away from our destination, the bus driver kicked us out in the middle of some place we had never seen or been to before. We walked around aimlessly for a little while trying to figure out how to get back. Eventually some man noticed that we looked sad and lost and directed us to the right bus.

Other than that, it was a pretty uneventful day. We got back around 2-ish and other than eating, I essentially spent the rest of the day working on OCI bids. It was a lot of fun. We did see Imo Halmony briefly because she had come to visit Halmony. She was just leaving as we were getting to the apartment complex.
