Classes begin

Date - 04/09/2017

Yesterday, after talking to Kuldeep Sir and Vipin Sir, I was finally satisfied with the courses I had chosen for this semester. I was glad and all good to go.

Our classes began today and I was really excited for today. Today I had my first class of Financial Management with Prof. Sungju Chun. It was a good class and will be taught entirely in English to my relief. Even the Professor was very friendly. It is going to be a little difficult for me but I think I am gonna enjoy it.

Today Prof. Kim Ja Hye took our Korean Language class. I was so worried that maybe our teacher for the Korean class has been changed because Prof. Kim was teaching most part in Korean and I just could not understand a lot of it. But thankfully Prof. Park Sun Kyu will be taking our class. I have heard she is a very good teacher and is also very fluent in English. So, I was very happy to know there are no changes.

In the Korean class, we learnt to write a few Korean alphabets and their pronunciations. We felt like the nursey kids while learning those pronounciations. But it was actually fun.

My weekly schedule for the five days is going to be really tiring but I am going to manage it well. I will definitely try my level best.

It was just my first day of classes but I was feeling very upset today. But after talking to Tamanna my mood just got better. Sometimes just talking to a friend and being able to share your feelings is all you need to cheer up.

I think since there is so much to do striking the right balance between things and staying positive and motivated is gonna be the main challenge for me for the next four months. Another thing I realised today is proper diet and proper rest is a must.

It feels so good to just feel good after being so upset. But today wasn't bad but just a very mixed day. Now I am juat prepared for my busy days ahead.

I just remembered what Abhi told me - five years down the line you don't want to cry over your problems but want to cherish what you did and be proud of the choices you made. It always motivates me to forget my problems and rise above them. I was really missing my best friend today and maybe that was the reason I was feeling even more upset but all great now. :) :)

A letter to my happy tear

Sometimes we make things so much bigger in our hearts that it becomes impossible for the events to match our anticipation and even the slightest misdirections to our plans end up grounding them altogether. Exactly an year ago, on October 17, my father-in-law called me and told us that our wedding dates had been fixed. It had been a long-distance courtship but as the luck would have it, we were right there together to celebrate the good news. The next four months were probably the happiest period of my life. Even as I felt lonely without him, I would simply count down our days to the wedding. Soon enough, my joy and excitement became too visible. I don't think I have ever taken care of myself any better. I couldn't wait to get married.  I don't think there was a day I didn't think of him before I ended my day. I simply couldn't wait to be his wife. To his credit, it has all been worth it. Even as we are yet to find our way to a shared roof, Akhil you ...

Inside Gachon University Festival: My Experience as an Exchange Student in South Korea

Gachon University Festival in South Korea is a popular campus event featuring K-pop performances, student activities, and cultural celebrations. Originally experienced in September 2017, Gachon Festival was one of my most memorable experiences during my student exchange programme in South Korea. When people think of South Korea, they often imagine K-pop, K-dramas, street food and bustling cities. I too got a glimpse of that culture and celebration at the Gachon University Festival. It wasn't just about music and performances; it was about seeing thousands of students come together to celebrate, make memories and enjoy a brief break from their demanding academic schedules. I had attended college festivals back home in India, yet I was curious to see how a Korean university festival would compare. What Is the Gachon University Festival? Like many universities in South Korea, Gachon University organises an annual festival where students showcase their talents through music, dance, per...

Ramblings Of A Mad Woman

If you find yourself on this page by any chance, please bear with me for today. Though as I search the meaning of "ramblings" just to be sure, I realised, its exactly what this post is most likely to be. "L engthy, confused and inconsequential." I guess sometimes you just want to be heard but don't know how to really reach out. You want to have a conversation but don't know how to ask for it. At times, you even try and reach out, you often end up feeling a little letdown. (Even though you also know that the other person is hardly at fault) Especially, amidst the Covid-19 lockdowns, no matter how much you try to stay sane, there are days you still lose your shit. It is easier to post, "It's ok not to be ok" but when your own 'not so ok' days arrive, you still feel the same which is ok too.  While blogs can often feel like a lot of work, I often take to my usually private WhatsApp Statuses to express how I feel. It's off-course easier...
