Junior Term Abroad

so i’ve been thinking about junior year plans. ateneo has this thing where you can be an exchange student for the sem. the schools they’re offering that i’m interested in are SNU and Sogang University. i know i am not gonna get into SNU because only 2 slots are being offered, and besides, they have a shorter stay in korea than Sogang goers. and i think life in SNU’s gon be pretty toxic. X( so basically, i’m pretty much set on Sogang. i also have heard a lot about it from my peers, so i’m really excited. a Yonsei student also told me that conversational Korean is taught best in Sogang so that’s really awesome!!

i’m a bit unsure, though, if i can manage being away from family for 5 months. i love Seoul, in fact, i consider it my second home, but isn’t 5 months too long? gaaah. everything’s perfect,though. i’m learning basic korean this sem, which is enough to get me started and i’m taking breakdance which will help me in “you know”.. :> there will also be enough time for me to “you know” in Seoul. hahaha

i guess i’m going if all things go smoothly. and hopefully, i fulfill my dream. ;) *wishful thinking
