Today, I woke up and met my roommate, Jimmy, who is from California. He was already sleeping when I came in after the movie last night so I didn't get a chance to meet him until today. Jimmy and I went and met up with a bunch of other friends and we bought yogurt at the convenience store for a quick breakfast before we went to the Yonsei International Summer School orientation, which lasted for about an hour and a half.
After orientation, we walked into Sinchon (literally right outside of the university main gate) to find some lunch. We ate lunch in the subway station, which may sound weird, but subways in Korea are very different than the ones I've used in the US. All of the subway stations are air conditioned and very nice and clean and they have shopping malls and restaurants inside of them. Nearby Sinchon station has a shopping mall, Hyundai department store, food court, and grocery store all inside of the subway station. I ate sushi for lunch in the food court.
After lunch, I headed back to Yonsei to do my laundry because I was all out of clean clothes! Laundry turned out to be quite an ordeal because my clothes would not get dry in the dryer, so I did as Koreans do and hung them all up to dry.
We had a SK Global House orientation at 5 pm that was very brief and afterward I got my cell phone back from the mobile store with a Korean phone plan, so now I can communicate!
I'm about to head out with some friends to get dinner and then probably head back to go to sleep.
That's all for now!
