Media and Mass Communication Department @ Gachon

After the morning class, I was left with another three hours at my leisure. So rather than procrastinating it any further, I decided to visit the Journalism Department and make an attempt to meet one of the Journalism Professors.

I thought fourth floor In the College of Law was for Media and Mass Communication as it had boards for Broadcasting Studio. So, I wished a Professor and asked him if he could understand English. I showed him the slip which read my name and introduction in Korean. It told that I am a Journalism student and wish to see the department and interact with any of the Journalism Professors. 

Since he was a bit clueless about how to help me, he took me to another Professor who teaches German and can speak fluent English. She connected me to a Kate in the Journalism department.

Kate is a Korean student who has graduated in Journalism from Gachon University and now also works in the Mass Communication department. She showed me their studios and would try to fix an appointment with one of the Journalism Professors.

I was glad that I finally made an effort in this direction and it turned out better than I expected. I hope to interact with more Journalism people here in the future. With the last couple of hours of the day wasted it was still a day well utilised.

P.S. 

With each passing day I realise how important it is for me to begin speaking slower.

Strange...

Today I got to know something about Korea that I thought was really strange. Gambling is generally prohibted for Koreans. Hailey told us that there is a huge Cassino in Korea where Koreans are not allowed to enter. It is only for the Foreigners or Koreans that have an American citizenship. In case of many clubs the situation is completely opposite. Lawrence told us that there are a lot of clubs which are meant for Koreans only and Foreigners are not allowed there. I found it really weird because I don't think there is any such similiar thing in India.

First Sunset in South Korea

Date- 01/09/2017 I love watching sunsets. In the evening I was feeling a little upset so just went to the ground. I walked a bit and then sat on the grass for a while. While sitting there, I noticed sun was about to set so I began to notice. I wasn't really in the mood and did not really enjoy it much but felt good to notice the sunset after long. I did not had much to do today. In the morning, we went for the Induction of Korean language class. Professor Park Sun Kyu is going to be our teacher for the Korean language class. Initially, I just hated the Korean language when I tried to speak a few Korean words through some apps back in India. But after coming here and learning a couple of words I am beginning to enjoy it. I also learnt how to introduce myself in Korean. Now I really want to learn Korean. I think its gonna be fun. Our classes will be starting from monday and I will be selecting my courses tomorrow. I am feeling really sleepy right now so good night guys. 😊 ...

Stop Expecting Them To Understand!

Source - Pixabay The advice we empathetically present to our friends is often the same ones we learnt too late, at a cost we wish wasn't so huge. As you tell them that not all has been lost and their worth and what they bring to the table is way beyond the biggest of their dreams and worst of their failings they may have known. Yet in your own shoes, besides all the words you throw around to sooth your heart ache, you often feel defeated and lost beyond despair.  You finally woke up but knowing that it probably is already too late doesn't really help your sleep. Nor does it do much to help you get out of bed as suddenly you begin to wake up with the worst of your fears each day. There is so much you know today; you just wish you had garnered enough will yesterday. But, I guess Bob Marley was right when he said, "You never know how strong you are, until being strong is your only choice."  © Source: Quotespedia Me being me, I didn't come back to my senses untill all...
