After eating a motivational breakfast of kimchi, black beans, pickled sprouts, and rice, I walked to my first class at Sogang University. The international Korean language program at Sogang is said to be one of the best in Korea. Classes are 5 days a week, from 9am to 1pm taught by three teachers specializing in Writing, Speaking, and Reading. Class sizes are no bigger than 12 students.
My Speaking instructor, Cheng Sunsengnim, split the class up into two teams and we battled to remember the Korean vocab that's rusted since the spring finals. I'm already way behind in my level three class because my american university teaches (a freakin' whole semester) slower than Sogang. I cost my Kimchi team a five point loss and now we owe the other half of the class espresso and chocolate milk. Miyan-heyo! (I'm sorry!)
Last night the homework took me till 1pm.
This weekend is gonna put the "study" into study abroad.
