seriously, i'm out most of the time,
sightseeing the city [eating shopping eating]
meeting new people [korean talk scholars&friends!]
doing cultural activities [make food! yayyy!]
or hanging out w/ our amazing daegu 5th gen ppl ;)

TaLK orientation:
it's been really fun getting to meet other TaLK scholars :)
most of the lectures were interesting;
some were very useful&fun;
and couple were just too boring..

i will definitely check out the sites for teaching resources within couple weeks
& i'm more excited to be teaching :D

i think i'm way too lazy to post up pics
especially since it takes forever to upload D:

tomorrow, we will be heading to seoul again,
to see NANTA perf & shop around myeongdong :D
