Yeah that was geting a bit long so I make a Part II. Ill explain why my mind was somewhere else during my Bio exam.
The night before that or I guess it was the same say since I came back at 1:30 and saw a note left for me from my lovely roommate and I waited till she finished her lesson at 3am to talk to her about it. This note is the 3rd in a set of notes that are usually about cleaning. No I'm not a dirty person, my roommate has a strict cleaning schedule. Surprising you would think that would be on of the stupid rules here? Nope it isn't no one every come to check our rooms for the cleanliness of it. In the old dorm I lived in last summer at Sogang they did and it was STUPID! So I was glad that I lived in this dorm so I wouldnt have to deal with that again. But with my roommate it is basicly the same thing cause eventhough she said she doesnt she checks behind me to make sure when its my week to clean I cleaned everything perfectly. Also when its my week to clean I never do it rights cause she tells me something I missed or did sweep this part or whatever. It got on my nerves that she was soo werid about it, but I never said anything untill 2 days ago. Maybe it wasnt a good ideal to talk at 3am when Im exhasted cause parently im not apogetic as my roommate said for not cleaning correctly. I didnt clean the mirror this week cause she insist that it can be cleaned with water but when I used water it didnt work,(note here the invention of Windex), I mentioned it to her earlier that week and she passed it of by saying that oh I dont use that and I dont know what its in Korean and I think water works. So I intentionly put off cleaning it because A. Midterms, B. No windex C- Z I dont care that much. I was really going to clean it after my midterms but I was slightly upset that she was like " oh I dont know about Windex( not the atually product, but window cleaner) ( another note she speak english very well mind you so there wasnt a language barrier). So when I asked her about the note cause to me it doesnt make since to write a note when I live with you. Shit just hit the fan and broke the fan. The next thing I knew we where yelling back and forth about cleaning, korean vs. American culture/ cleaning styles, my cleaning style, her cleaning style and standards. She has a really bad tempor eventhough I was anyoed which u could tell from my voice/face, I didnt yell untill I was yelled at like 10 times. I hope these walls aren't made of paper cause our poor neighbors didnt get much sleep that night, or at least till 5am. Yes we agured unill 5am. We took a small break where I though she was going to bed but no aparently me turing on my computer reminded her of me talkign to kyle and she Bitched at me about that aswell. Or should I say yelled cause talking nicely ended around 4am. She told me it was werid to talk to kyle for as long as I do which is max 3 hours and not everyday (3 hours on days I have nothing to do, and when kyle has nothing to do too aka weekends) If you dont know I talk to three people through skype my family (Mommy,Daddy, Sis) , Grandma, and Kyle, and only these three people. *note my roommate once wote me a note while I was talking to my MOTHER and told me could I write instead of talk cause I was bothering her studying. I did stop for maybe 10 mins then I said can I talk quiter. (Uh how loud do you guys think I talk to my mom? as loud as u think, not a all) She also told me that it was werid to talk to kyle for so long, and she said what are you talking for soo long.. and she said that I didnt need to talk about my daily life to them. I yelled back you talk to your boyfriend on the phone and I dont say anything (her boyfriend is in the army) cause it doesnt bother me, and I understand since you cant see him you want to talk with him. She yells back "I dont talk to him for 2 hours even when he is here" (Im thinking uh why don't you? I though most couples can talk on the phone for long periods of time about nothing) Maybe she isnt normal..... So I said no I yelled Kyle and my family are ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD... 13 hours and at least $900 dollars away by airplane, and I wont see them untill May, so to keep me going and not to have a expensive phone bill I talk to them through the computer. That yelling contest ended with her cursing at me and I calling her a child for it.
The next moring no wait haha that same day.. I was sooo emotion done from that that I called my parents and all of my angry, and stress flowed out of my through tears. I feel sorry for the 2 guys who where in the computer room (cause I couldnt talk in my room) at 5am which I was balling my eyes out to my father. I did help to hear my father lecture me like he usualy does >.<>.<) Anyway they where suprising understanding and sugest that I change my roommate. So I agreed, and now they are in the process of changing my roommate.
I had maybe 3 talks with the RA lady where she said my roommates point of view and that she doesnt want me to leave the room but, I told them that with her lifestyle I cant live with her. She wants this room to be a clean and quite study room where you can talk and she controls everything. I cant even turn on the air or open the window cause she doesnt want it, eventhough I have a nice view of outside >.< If she wanted that kind of enviorment then I feel like she should have her own room or stayed at home. Cause if she lived with anyone who goes to classes and has a active lifestyle then she would be bothered by them in some way. *Note my roomate doesnt go to class, she studies all day for a exam she is taking in Feb.. so that explains diffrent lifestyles.
I cant wait to leave honestly cause I wont have to worry about cleaning or opening the window or worry when Im talking to my grandma that my roomate will get mad.
This was one of the reason that I cryed soo much cause when she called me I atually worried about that, but thats unfair to her, my grandma took classes to learn how to use the computer, and she wrote down the steps to use skype so she can talk to me. Last time she talked to me she said it really brightens her day just to hear my voice. I get so emotion cause eventhough I say I cant stand my family I have never been away from really contacting them ever before. I love the space but I miss them sometimes, but im being a big girl and dealing with it ^.^ Aja Aja Fighting !
Im keeping my head up cause the sun will come up tomorrow. It did quite literly cause the next moring I got a email saying I was accepted to Kansai Gaidai. ^.^ Now nothing maters haha cause IM GOING TO CHINA, & JAPAN. ^.^ I almost cryed when i read that email (darn girly emotions again >.< ) cause I have wanted to go there for soooo long and now Im going back there. Wah
Im going to JAPAN Wah ! 日本に行きます。日本に行く。 ^。^

OMG EXAMS, OMG I'M Going to JAPAN
OMG WAH.....
So Yeah alot to talk about here. I'm so happy have time to write about most of it here. Lets recap from Oct 18 cause thats as far back as fun stuffs had happened. ( did you understand that sentence? I didn't LOL)
SO that day was CRAZY.. but in a good way. I left my house at 8am and didn't come back until 12.
I met Johee at 8am to go to Coex for a job fair for foreigners. Unfortunately Johee and I aren't Engineering and computer majors so we didn't apply to any to of the jobs >.< korea=" wah" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNt1Oylf7yuho5yxd4zTVwEWTi6hgw6MlH_fYmGsatcQ5SXG73RTLZ7eDJhivIjdgYyEVOgqNE-gPoVEqn1DHZNtFjwFX8Fqeohp3Ir1uopYv5AjTgvL-dWrTPl6qh8YHZgaN8n0gleRWm/s1600-h/Robot+Show+%40+Coex+10-19-08+%2815%29.JPG"> For more robots check Facebook ^.^
After robot show I rode the subway 3 stops to Jamsill to meet Libby, Jason, and Byoung Hoon for Ice Skating/Shooting(Real Guns)/Karaoke/Drinking ^.^ *Sorry Jason I dont have a pic of you on my computer* ** There are also video plus my horrible shooting score on facebook. All I can say is real guns are REAL and scarry and loud. The sound just scarried me and the recol >.< onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB2Tlnntk4QNsbxCkcQ_4wLRUB7ifVeHekoyW3Sgu07c-coTnCsxzS53_E-vmmpf8MFDsAn9LQYC-OExKX2whLxs4ooys5xr5ObXcz0gVAQfzgzlcVTmSyFvACOVvxLs35NlSyd2_uWawH/s1600-h/Ice+Skating+%40+Lotte+10-19-08+%285%29.JPG">
So that was the the last time I went out because Sunday-Thrusday Oct 19-23 I was in Study mode. I was soo stressed about my two little exams. I had exams in History and Biology which sound easy but it wasnt. For History I had to review 12 lectures of power points which were at least 32 sides each >.<>.<>.<>.<
Randomly I feel like inserting here that I have master Subway's in Korea. This is exciting for me cause I went from , I dont want to go out anywhere (even in the states ) bymyself to, Im bored lets go out, take the subway to where I want get it hop on the subway and come home. Plus going to my tutor three times a week helped alot too.

Omg Angry Foreigners
After my lovely 4 day weekend, I had to get back to my busy reality. >.<>.<>.<>.<
Ok now to the point of my title.
So today there was a meeting for Foreigners about the rules of Gozaga dorm. I havent complained but its gotten to the point where its like that scene in harry potter where Umbridge keeps making new rules and posts them on the same wall. Before you get on the elevator its full of papers and notices of new rules. I so busy so i really dont pay attention to alot of them. I went to the meeting around 8:30 because I just finished eatting dinner and helping my class mate with our english paper. (Aigooo that paper is due Friday) So basicly I got there when things started to really heat up. The European students where upset because of the harsh rules. Ill put afew of them here
- Cerfew at 1am
- You cant go to anyone else room exept your own
- You cant go to either sexs dorm, going there can get u kicked out
- You cant stay out late unless u apply to online
- You cant drink alcohol inside or around the dorm
- You must throw away your trash correcly (5 different trash cans for this)
These are just a few cause there are a bit to write here >.<>
*Sigh Sogang needs to understand if they piss of the foreigners then they wont have any. They aready have like 60ish living in the dorm and that is nothing compaired to other schools in Korea.

Korea Un- Sparkling
WOw I havent written here in a while. (Sorry Kyle haha cause I know ur the only one who reads this on a daily basis ^.^) I haven been feeling my happy cheerfull self lately. *sigh Two reasons. Ill sum them up .. Biology is hard and Jin suxs. LoL My Bio quiz that I studied really hard for didnt go so well, and two well Jin is a well I should write those words here. hahahaha Anyway I have a tutoring job which starts next week Yays !
Today I just studdied in the library like a good student haha from 10am till 3:30pm. Hardcore right? Nope atually my friends stayied there till 10pm. I got a lot of work done today so thats good since I will be abit busy tomorrow and Sunday too. I gotta get up and study again this moring. Aigoos im going to be busy now a days since I have to start going to my Korean class again. >.< onblur="try Kang Ji Wan) wah ^.^
Actually this movie wasnt that good. >.< I just wanted to see that actor.
Before the movie we ate at this place that seemed ok. (*after walking around for 30 mins looking places that are open) Apparently the the Ajumma who worked there said something really mean to me, when I spoke Korean. I know I didnt make a mistake in my Korean so I guess she just didn't like Americans. Happy- Oppa was really upset at them, sadly enough I couldn't understand all what she was saying but I did her something to the affect of "Why do these Americans think they can speak Korean". Whatever I dont like Haters Sadly enough the food was really good, but that was the first and hopefully last time I get bad service here. We drank coffee at this pretty three level starbucks like place to kill time before the movie. LOL we where both really tired too. Sooo um I witness the funniest thing ever, while Happy payed my ds. He does sound effects while playing Mario, like its cute and funny and just silly at times but I made me laugh sooo much. It was too funny...... He beat three levels while we sat there, but he isnt good at Cooking mama LoL. Wah I had a great day today... really great, I kind of needed it cause of this past week. Aigoo midterm exams are coming, time to be a hard core student again....
