Thanks all for the kind responses/tips/shout outs in my first blog!

After sleeping about 13 hours me and some new found friends decided to go into town - due to miscommunication we decided to head for COEX mall to find electronics. Jumped off the subway at a random station - strolled around for a bit - and saw in the far I PARK mall instead. Pretty cool place; although i forgot to go to the top floor to check out the E-sport venue (I guessed that there weren´t any games on anyways, maybe I was wrong there).

Strolled around for a bit more, went to the electronics warehouse nearby, and then went home to KU where we had some bibimbap (delicious!). Seoul is super great so far!

Funy incident: Went on the public computers in one of the subway stations to check my email. Found Broodwar installed and ready to go (LOL). Logged in to USEast but could only find a single "poker def" game. Still pretty awesome!

Anyways, going to do some chores here and stuff. Orientation tomorrow!

(And for the people that asked in the last blog; im studying random buisness classes and hopefully some korean too. Since im swedish - and school there is free and you get an "allowance" from the government to study - i dont pay anything and even get payed to study even abroad, since my school has an exchange program with KU. So i took the chance to go here albeit not being necessary at all education wise since its very cheap and i get to know Seoul for a full 4 months!! In Sweden I study law but its not accepted to study at the KU law school unfortunately).

Cheers all!

Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

I attended KU last fall semester, it's a great place. The orientation days and buddy program are amazing . Enjoy your time and if you have any questions, pm me!

I strongly recommend the Korean language courses! You learn a lot of practical stuff and the teacher I had was really really nice. You have to take them!
