Seoul

Allright...so I'm in Seoul now, studying Computer Science for a semester (exchange program). I love Korea...the people are really friendly. From the Korean Air to Yongsan-gu, I've met really nice people, who are always ready with smiles.

Today was our first day of class. Finally...boredom over. When I was working during the vac, I just couldn't wait to get a break and when I finally finished, I was so bored stiff, I started to learn...yes, I, Ama, started to learn without anyone pushing me..lol...yes I was that bored.

But I love programming...it is fun. I don't need anyone to push me to code! And it looks like my classes this sem are going to be amazing. Algorithms (if I don't get an A in that course, call me ******)....who can guess what that is? Yea so algorithms, networking, systems interface (unix based...yay!!!) and database design and query language (that will be a bit boring...sorry Oracle, Microsoft Access, Postgres, Mysql lovers...you are my friends but y'all know I just love hardcore programming and not just business oriented solutions..:)).

We had a welcome party today, for all the international students. It was cool. But you know me. I'm not the 'hey, lets have fun, easy-going' type. So I did my best to be nice and friendly to those whom I came across. But if I came across as unfriendly, please forgive! And after the party, folks met somewhere to chill again and guess who was absent? Me. I was busy sitting behind my PC, coding...hmm...the pressures of my dreams.

Slowly, little-by-little, I will get there. I will achieve what I dream of.

Little by little, the light in the distance so far away, gets brighter each day.
Right now, I'm just living like no one else, so that later, I can live like no one else! Yea! That's right, Dave Ramsey! (His quote doesn't apply to money only...it relates to every aspect of our lives. Those who don't know him, check him out. You can click on his name. He's great!)

 The elements around are killing my creative spirit...I can't flow anymore. I'm sleepy now, and running out of words...:). I'll keep you posted!
