Musing at a thousand thoughts per second.

My French professors weren't kidding when they said weeks 8 and 9 of the summer are the worse. Each day, we went through half if not an entire chapter. We will be finishing our last chapter on Monday! Crazy, it feels just like yesterday that I started learning French. I'm barely starting to absorb chapter 10... we are on chapter 24!!! >headshake< Here's to hoping that I fully absorb before I leave and that I don't lose much before I leave.

Anyhow, I've been running on a rather full load of duties and rather a bordering-empty (read: low) level of sleep. Ah, the things one must sacrifice in order to be able to order a meal in Paris, haha.

Can't leave too much of a thorough post, so I will be brief:
-The coming week is the last week of French. Crazy how fast the summer went.
-I'm moving out on the 10th! Same day as my French final.
-I'm flying out on the 19th!

So many things to do, not enough time to do it all.

*** My first attempt at typing French... -_-
Je veux pratiquer mon français, donc, quand j'ai un peu de temps, j'écrirai plus. Je pense que c'est necessaire pour moi à apprendre comment écrire français avec mon laptop mais c'est plus difficile que je pense.

Si j'ai fait des erreurs, vous m'aidez et dites à moi, s'il vous plait.

왜 프랑스어 아주 어려워?!!! 내가 아무것도 몰라! ㅠ.ㅠ

Korean Beauty Products

I could go on a tangent about beauty standards in Korea... but I won't. My goal is to review the beauty products that I have bought and tried here in Korea. In case you've ever visited Korea or ever plan to visit Korea, one of the first things you will notice is the overabundance of makeup stores -- Etude House, Nature Republic, TheFaceShop, Innisfree, Missha, Saem, It's Skin, Hanskin, Aritaum... the list goes on. Most of these stores are easily seen in shopping areas, university areas, and subway stations. In many locations, 2 or more of the same branches can be found within a 1/2 radius... I kid you not. Anyways, my point is that with such an abundance of stores and beauty products, it can be difficult to decide what products are worth it... and which aren't. The below reviews are solely my own opinion and derive from my personal experience with said products, so take from it what you will. *** First off, I'm actually going to review a U.S. product I purc...

My Thoughts Upon Extending.

Extending from a semester to a year long program isn't some random thought that just recently occurred to me one day. This was a thought I had started contemplating a while ago, albeit too late in the semester for me to actually have prepared beforehand... but the past is a moot point. There's a lot of wouldas, couldas, and shouldas... but ultimately this is a question of what I CAN do NOW at this very moment. I've discussed this with my mom and at the very core of the argument, it really goes down to 2 things. 1) Money. But of course, it always comes down to money. 2) Graduating on time/ the commencement ceremony. If I extend into the year... I will have to stay an additional semester at UC Berkeley. An additional semester means no Cal Grants... which means approximately $5000-$6000 out of pocket/ loans that I will have to take out... given that the tuition doesn't skyrocket and given that Pell Grants don't disappear. Furthermore, there is the cost of my be...

huhhhhhhhh

You know how you feel when you are conflicted and then you get advice and then u feel unconflicted and then something inspires you or changes your mind and you are confused all over again. Yeah... that's where I'm at again. I thought I was sure about not extending. But even with all my doubts and logic, I still want to extend. Logically, financially, for all the reasonable possible reasons, all signs point to me going home... but the semester is half over and I have barely explored Seoul, much less South Korea, and Asia. My heart wants to stay. The heart wants what it wants. But my brain tells me to go home. But but... I think about it... and when will I ever have the chance to be an undergrad student at Yonsei again? At the end of the day, which decision will I regret more? Going home or staying? Pah..... ___ In other news, updates about my recent activities.... I went on a space tour company the other day/yesterday... not that interesting... after a short nap, ...
