Terrible Tuesdays

Emily and I headed over to breakfast this morning, but on the way, we ran into our professor. She stopped us and told us she had made waffles so we didn't need to go eat at BioTech! The waffles were really good! She made one with whole wheat and walnuts and the other with bleached flour. She also brought Hershey's chocolate syrup to put on the waffles as well...best breakfast in Korea! :) The class was a little difficult; again she moved through the material really quickly and didn't really stop to make sure we actually learned what we covered. Later a few of us were discussing this and are coming to the conclusion that maybe this is just a teaching style of Koreans; the teacher covers/introduces as much material as possible in a class period and it is the students' responsibility to actually learn and understand it.

After conversation class, it was off to Taekwondo. It wasn't so bad today. We jumped and kicked a lot-we learned a new 'kick. It's called "na rae" I think, in Korean and it is translated into something about flying. Lunch was actually good today too! There were new dishes-BioTech was starting to get a little repetitious in their meals. We had curry, mini egg rolls, and cucumber kimchi. The language class was okay. When I got back from class, I did a little bit of studying with Rosetta Stone. 

My ET group got a new member. We introduced ourselves to him and didn't really do much else in class. I had some snacks with some of the ET members after class was finished. Then I went for a walk around campus with Emily and Jenny.
