Today = burning Friday (as the POSTECHians call it).
Didn't go to lab today as the primer takes time to deliver, and so went out to lunch with Katie and her room mate at the good cafeteria. Then met up English group at 7 at library as usual. Read another CNN article, this time on Queen Elizabeth and some sort of "monumental" handshake, and then watched episode 2 of White Collar. We also played cards (President) and discussed some topics that we had not yet discussed that the students wanted to write their papers on that is due next Friday.
After, my students were busy, so I hung out with a huge group of other people in our Program - namely Katie's and Ling's groups. We went to a restaurant, had some makoli and soju (both Korean drinks), and anju (food you eat while drinking). Then we hopped on over to a Chinese restaurant and had some really strong 50% alcohol Chinese drink... hm, it burned a lot. Then went to NRB (노래방 -karaoke). Students are hilarious. One randomly pulled out a water bottle from a sketch electrical cabinet and said claimed it was a common resource for all Postechians (you can refill the water bottle at a machine in the NRB). NRB really makes you thirsty. A few students completely broke out of their shells @ NRB. After like 3 hours there (the lady there is so nice! she kept adding time as service. we only paid for an hour) we finally hitched a ride home on a taxi because it was raining. Out til 5am lol wow, Postechians know how to have a good time.
doing laundry today with Ling and Katie. we used the boy's (floor 1) because girl's (floor 11) seemed dirtier...
yea.. everything is in Korean -.- called Peter for help lol
macaroon my student gave me during meeting ^^
drinks to drink mm
deck of cards for 8000won. insane.
then after group meeting, separated, and went to seljong bin (not completely sure about name) with a couple other groups. makkoli and cider combination mixed by Cutie Baby lol but actually I think makkoli by itself may taste better? Katie agrees. this makkoli (막걸리) was made by Postech I heard?
jjan! (toast)
kimchi jigae (so good here! definitely one of the best)
another type of makkoli
pajun as anju (side dish while drinking)

mmm today's = shark. Katie's melonbar
