Triping
Well, the last few days were full organizing and classes. We finally got all our classes together with all hurdles left behind. We attended nearly all the introduction classes and I think we are able to say it will be quite an interessting semester.
Also, we applied for the "Alien registration card", which is basically a card saying that you are legally in Korea. Having the visa is not enough :-(
Oido
Yesterday we had a small trip to Oido, which is a costal town. At the street following the coastline there are many restaurants located, which serve fish. And with many I mean a lot: They are packed next to each other, up the whole street.
Luckily we had a nice "tourguide", a member from SKKU HI-Club, which helped us finding our way to and around the town. We also were accompanied by to senior students of SKKU. They guided us into one of these restaurants and we had some typical food. One of the dishes was some "korean pizza", which is not acctually pizza ... this one consisted of seefood (clams and calmari) and vegetables mixed wich egg (I think) to keep it together. The main dish was a kind of stew: a soup with noodles inside, accompanied by a variety of seafood (different clams, crabs, octopus, ...).
After dinner, darkness spread and we headed out to do some cliché stuff, like shooting fireworks and lighting spark sticks :-)
Norebang (kor. 노래방)
After the trip the group split up and some went to a Norebang. Now you must think, what the heck is that. Its Karaoke. And its awsome. You rent a room with some people for a amount of time (normally one hour) and then you can sing/yell/shout/scream/rap to your hears content. In the room there is a karaoke-machine (of course there is) and several microphones (of course there are). For the choice of songs, there is a book with all songs the machine knows. Each song has its own number. Once you enter a number its in the playlist and then you can just go.
