This week I got to go to Everland with my Flagship program for free. We went together with our teachers and the staff of the program and rode a bus to the amusement park. It was about an hour and a half ride and since it was early in the morning, I decided to take a short nap. On arrival, the first thing that everyone wanted to do was ride the biggest roller coaster there which was T-express. This roller coaster is made entirely of wood and I had ridden it before and it was really fun. However, today I was not feeling good and decided to sit out. So, instead of riding rides, me and a few other friends decided to go to an exhibition in the park. At the exhibition, we got to learn more about Korean history and also use VR (Virtual Reality) headsets which were really cool. After that, we spent some time exploring and finally it was time to go.
This week was also the week of orientation for school and when i would be meeting my KUBA group and buddy. KUBA, which is a club solely created for exchange students was made to allow Koreans and foreigners to be able to exchange and interact with each other. It was also made to help foreigners that are unfamiliar with Korea to get adjusted to the country more quickly with the help of the Korean members. Since KUBA is an active group with many events, I am looking forward to meeting a lot of new people and also participating in many events.
