Welcome!

The time has come and gone....

During the first half of 2013, I studied abroad in Ewha Womans University in Seoul, South Korea. I spent four months exploring the wonder that is Seoul and spent a month afterwards travelling around Asia with friends that I made at my university. It was truly an adventure. An adventure I wish to share with you. So please, have a gander, take a look, and enjoy the tales as I randomly post about the time I spent as a student in Asia...

I hope you guys enjoy anyway!

Rambling About My First Few Days in Seoul

So I've finally posted it...

Back when I was actually in Seoul, I took this video while I was in my dorm room. I've sat on this thing for so long because my original thought was that I would edit it later for my roommates sake...

Obviously, that didn't happen.

So, ultimately, I have decided to just upload it as is. So just ignore the mess that is the bathroom and I already apologized in the video for the mess I made of my side of the room (ironically, I think that was the messiest it ever was in the four months I lived there).


I'm so horribly awkward on camera...Oh wait. I am awkward in general.
My mistake.

I hope you guys enjoyed!


Until next time...

Over a Year After Returning to the States...

So if you haven't noticed....

This blog kind of turned into an epic fail. It happens to a lot of people when they start blogs, especially when they go abroad. However, I feel like, in my case, it is worse because I didn't even manage to update this thing while I was still in Korea. But you know what?

That means I was studying abroad the right way...

I really and truly enjoyed my time abroad and spent most of my time going out and having great experiences. It was awesome. So if having an amazing once-in-a-life time experience results in me being a bad blogger, then so be it.

To make up for it (or at least, to try to start making up for it) I'm going to write a few retrospective posts on this blog. You know, because it reality, it'd be kind of a waste of a blog if I didn't at least do something, right?

So look forward to some new posts on here. Not sure how many (because, honestly, I'm not sure how many specifics that I can remember), but there will be some. Probably topics regarding a reflection of my time there, my thoughts on the university I studied at, and things I recommend people do in regards to studying abroad in Seoul or South Korea in general.

Until next time...

The Pre-Departure Video

And our story is soon to unfold...

So it's D-day. My flight is in about three hours and, to save time, I did a quick video (yes, this is my version of saving time). Enjoy the awkwardness that is me on camera, for that is the only thing you shall be receiving whenever I'm rambling on camera with nothing particularly in mind.

Don't I seem super duper excited about my trip? :P

In order to show you how I really feel underneath the tired nerves, please refer to this video:

Maybe I'm revealing too much with this...Oh well.

Until next time...
