studying

hi! right now i'm in a study room. it's called a "dok-suh-shil".
the one i'm in right now costs 6,000W and has free wireless.
so basically it's like $4 for air conditioning, free wireless, and quiet.

i want to come again, but tomorrow i'm planning on visiting a violin academy. maybe i'll come again on thursday or friday.

the libraries are full! that's why i'm paying for a place to study. you need a ticket to get in to the library...

my korean seems to be stuck. i know a lot, but i'm still not great at talking. practice makes perfect though...

summer studies

from monday on i'm going to go to the library and study!
my host dad requested that i do this, and i think it's actually a really great idea!
i wanted to study during the summer, but i'm not that studious...therefore my plans went down the drain...hehehe...

anyways, summer has been uneventful so far. i'll update as summer passes along!

summer!

plans:

busan trip to visit jungin.
shop shop shop. [for gifts of course]
STUDY.

there's this show on tv here that has foreigners who speak korean. every time i watch it i just want to study. it drives me insane.

summer is here! what to do? i don't know. the only planning out i've done is study plans. my host parents say i should attend an academy or something, but i don't think i can afford it. i'd like to go and take violin, but i have to find out the cost.

went to the yfu-usa<--->yfu-korea thing today. it's like a debrief for returnees and the outbounders get to hear the returnees talk. we had to introduce ourselves in korean. easy right? i got really nervous and blacked out. i said my name was tintin. i'm so used to introducing myself that way.

met the americans. they're cool.

what to do during summer?

sleepy

i slept for two hours and i'm still sleepy. ever since lotteworld i've been beat! i need to take some vitamin c and sleep more! i hope i don't get sick.

i'm seeing eclipse tomorrow...FINALLY. i have to wait until the 22nd to see the last airbender. BOO!

nothing very exciting. just been normal these days.

our school trip is on wednesday. we're not allowed to bring shampoo because of the environment. 3days. a bunch of high school students. no shampoo. grrrrrrrreat.

monsoon season is crazy! the rain comes so quickly and in large amounts. it's like sheets of water...

it's july!

so june is over!

i took my english test again. i got 2 wrong this time. better than last time at least!!!

eclipse doesn't come until the 8th. the last airbender doesn't come out until the 22nd. shrek forever after was an ok childrens' movie. iron man 2 isn't playing at the theaters anymore!

i went to a piano recital today! she did so well!!! we also got to eat free fancy food.

it's been hot but rainy. monsoon season i guess.

i bought new shoes! my other ones had holes in them and my feet were getting wet when it rained...so i kind of needed new shoes.

school has been good. home has been good. life has been good.

my sister seems similar to me in many ways. we just get along on certain topics. like we both are quiet when we eat...so it's not awkward when we eat, just quiet.

i will try to update more often now! summer vacation is soon!
