Wi-fi World

31.08.10 08.44am

I am in the train (KTX) heading to Seoul for the class.

Since my new house in Seoul is availabe from next Monday, this week, I have to commute from Daejeon to Seoul everyday.

As usual I could not get the cheaper train (I admit I am lazy), I had to take the express one with 2 times more expensive fare.

Still about 13 Euros for 50 mins Daejeon to Seoul 151km.

FYI, http://maps.google.com/maps?q=daejeon%20to%20seoul&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=de&tab=wl

It is so great that now it is available to use wi-fi in ktx for free.

South korea is one of the country for strong IT. (at least we say so)

but it was not common that people can use wi-fi everywhere for free.

well, normally people have to buy a wi-fi ticket or something like that, but if they're a member of a certain website, it is totally free!

Yes, in 8 minutes I arrive at Seoul station!

and today I have first 2 classes of this semester!!!!!!!

New Semester begins

After Long break including the Erasmus (a.k.a. exchange students) life, which was my holiday year, it is time to go back to uni again.

I am one of the people who stay at univ.-level quite long.

Normally it is 4-year-course (8 semesters), but now I am starting my 9th semester.

What have I done then?

To be honest, although it is my 9th semester, I am in university for 5 years and half - let's say 6 years.

2005 : 1st year

2006 : 2nd year

2007 : break for working

2008 : 3rd year

2009-1 : break for working 2

2009-2 ~ 2010-1: Erasmus in Germany

and NOW back to the school.

I was not a great student, but I did not waste my time during my school years.

Honestly I did not study hard, but I learned a lot in many different ways apart from my own study. I should have focused on my own study, however, since I found my self as 'not-able-to-be-a-psychologist', I looked for some different experiences that I could learn something I liked.

I also did work.

I was a good employee. I did my best, and everyone recognised me.

I worked a lot, but I enjoyed.

I did a lot of things.

Now, it is my last year, and I have to work on my grade.

It might be late, but I have to try.

I spend almost 3 year doing things I like.

I have to do something I don't like but I have to do for at least 1 year.

I am not sure that I can do it or not.

well,

We will see,

it begins tomorrow.

It is just 1 year.

I maybe can do it.

What I missed about my town

After happy-long 1 year in Germany, I finally came back to my town.

Daejeon, South Korea

I actually did not want to come back that much like the others, who had kept saying they had wanted to come back home so bad.

Of course, I am happy to see my family and friends again.

and something else, I missed things..

The building next to mine..

Not likely my home in Worms, my mom's house is a 15-story-flat.

and all the buildings are so close to each other.

That is very annoying because people actually can see what the others are doing very easily at balcony.

I do not want to know what they are doing, but I like seeing all the houses turning off the light at night in a random order.

Then

at one point, all the houses are so quiet and dark. totally black out.

we see nothing

when I stay all night,

in the morning, also I can see the people starting the day which is interesting

I just saw all the houses flowing into the darkness and silence

but now I see all the houses awakening

IT's nothing maybe, but I like it
