Now we have two weeks of school behind us and only now things start to be clear. There has been many kinds of problems with courses and so on. First, the cousre plan my home university wanted me to turn in last fall is completely changed because they don't offer the same courses here this spring in english. Then the school's electronic course registration system is a bit impractical so the actual registration to courses has been a bit difficult. But what bothers me most of all is that the course descriptions don't always match with the courses. So the during the first week I almost lost my faith in getting into any good courses...
Monday morning I went to this class called "Asia Business Communication". I thought it would have been dealing with topics such as Asian business culture and how communicate in it. So when I went there enthusiastic about the subject, the course turned out to be a Chinese language course. Well not quite what I was looking for...
After that I went to this class called "Marketing Mix: Channels". Everything sounded good until after the class the professor told me that half of the course is going to be taught in Korean. Not for me then...
The first week in school was kinda uncomfortable. You had no idea what the courses were gonna turn out to be and if you could even take them. Every day was struggling: trying to find courses, trying get into them and finding courses to replace those you couldn't take.
Well, after the first week things were looking better. And now after the second, I'm confident that this semester is gonna be okay :) I took: International Commerce, Marketing Mix: Advertising, Management Strategy and Understanding Korean Society. I also arranged my time table so that I don't have school on Fridays. Long weekends and weekend trips, here I come!
After the exhausting week, we went out with the exchange students to a club called Bunker. The name says it all.
Posing.
The reality.
Koh and girls.
Girls taking the dance floor!
For some reason I felt like being artistic in the bathroom. But the pic turned out to be pretty nice. Very Bunker-ish :)
