"Resources are limited; Creativity is unlimited" - Park Tae Joon, POSCO founder

Rest. Then off to International Students Activity #2 @ 2 30pm - POSCO, a major Korean Steel Manufacturing company that ranks within the top three in the world, Tour and Korean Movie with pizza afterwards. It only takes about 20 minutes to get to POSCO from Postech. In POSCO, we watched an introductory film that was about 10 minutes, hopped back on to the bus, had a tour by bus of the manufacturing grounds, hopped off the bus to walk through one of the buildings, got back onto the bus, and then went to the POSCO museum. We finished by 4-5 ish and went back to the International Students Office building and watched a Korean movie - I recall it being called War of the Arrows - and pizza came about half way through. Had to leave half way through the movie to go to the English meeting @ 7pm. We pretty much worked on the finishing touches of their essays for the first hour, then really started finalizing ideas for the skit. 

Later that night, some of us (Ling, Katie, Andy, Michael, Yeong Sup, and Peter) went out to Tudari in Hyoja Market. Yea... Just so happened that one of my students was there at the same restaurant / bar and he got completely trashed. :o

 Korea has these nifty umbrella bags for when they're wet and you're about to go inside a building
