Where Did June Go?

No idea where June went. It has gone by so quickly. I can't believe I haven't posted yet. I suppose I've been very busy, ill, and whatnot. I don't remember most of what went on either. I remember there was a week of humidity and heat. Then a week of rain. That was disgusting because the rain here is acidic. Plus, it got really cold. I do remember meeting up with Mary and her friend. I also did a bit of last-minute shopping. Shopping for clothes makes me stressed out. It's so difficult to find what I actually think looks okay. Half the shirts here would be okay if they didn't have the big bow on it or was made in a solid color instead of crazy patterns. It's the Korean style.

I brought one of my Dutch friends to the tailor to get a suit. (Yes, this is the same tailor that kept messing up on my brothers' orders.) Anyways, I decided to get two more shirts. When I went back to pay for the shirts, he only charged me for one, since I had brought another friend. How awesome is that?! I was really excited. So, I have three tailored shirts now, but I only paid for one. I would consider that a great deal. The tailor is in Itaewon, which is a high touristic place for foreigners. It's next to the US military base. Anyways, the Belgian Embassy is also in Itaewon. Simon came with to apply for a driver's license.

Last Sunday, I got food poisoning. It was the worst stomachache ever, in addition to a high fever, and a bit of vomitting. Let me tell you, that was definitely the worst way to go into finals. I pretty much didn't move for a couple days.

I just finished my finals...Let summer begin.

Today, there is a farewell party for the international students. I've been promised a hilarious slideshow, a 'Miss Ewha' Contest with only male entries (the international program is co-ed, even though Ewha is a women's university), and free pizza. This afternoon, I'm going to Jeju Island. It's a famous island, south of the peninsula. It's particularly known for being windy, its statues, and many women. Supposedly, there are no beggars or thieves on this island, and the homes don't have front doors. It's very touristic and popular for honeymooners. So, it should be really interesting. I get back late Monday night, and then my flight home is early Tuesday. I will post pictures when I get back to the US of A.
