Orientation feels forever long. It's an isolated bubble in South Korea full of English speaking people from several different countries, pretty isolated from Korea proper when it comes to actual culture and daily interactions. Beautiful location at Daejin University and an awesome way to meet people, especially people you'll be friends with for the year (or more). Certain sessions left me feeling intimidated. Certain sessions left me feeling excited and at ease. I did my demonstration lesson with two other friends, and I feel a definite confidence boost from doing it. Not to say that a classroom full of 40 Korean kids won't still throw me off my comfort level. Quite the opposite! But at least I'll have an idea of how to act and what to do or not do! Excited for Jeju.
Beauty fun freedom learning time!
The monstrous hill to get to anything at Daejin University.
Drinks! I had one called Confidence the other day (made me feel great obviously).
