First week of classes

Classes started last Wednesday, which made for an odd three day week. On Wednesday I only had my Korean language class, which consisted of only the placement test. I wrote my name and handed it back, lol.

On thursday I had my two most important classes, PR Campaign and Film Criticism. Both of these are for my major at my home university. the PR classes sounds awesome. Our professor is great, funny, good english and she said she grades pretty easy. I believe her words were along the lines of "I will push you, but in the end you will get a good grade". For the class we will be getting into four person groups and doing work for a client. I envisioned an imaginary client. If it was a real client I assumed it would be a small one. Nope. Real client, its Bayer  the German pharmaceutical company (the only other exchange student in my class is a German, I hope she's in my group, lol).

The second class, Film Criticism sounds great as well. The professor is goofy and fun, with good English (not as good as the PR professor). We are going to watch 7 different movies, some american hollywood movies both from now, and the studio era, an italian film, and 2 Korean documentaries, one about North Korean defectors and both documentaries made by Korea University Alumni! Very excited to see those.

After my communications classes, I went back to Korean Language class. We spent the day learning the alphabet. Which entalied us shouting out sounds as the professor held up flash cards of the new symbols. I really like the korean language!

No class on friday, so I had a day off to catch up on sleep. I'll tell you more about this weekend once it's over.
