Adventures in Korea: 시작

This all started when I left the Philippines for South Korea. I never dreamed of coming here to study but I guess it is all because of fate or as the Koreans call it 운명 (unmyeong).
Someone once said that meeting people is all part of 운명. It is with the help of people who came to my life that I'm here.
Unexpected?
In a way, YES. I thought it was just a joke when my former boss told me that he asked a friend of his to look for a scholarship for me to study in Korea. But as days passed by, things started to fall into place: applying and being accepted in a scholarship program then to Kyungpook National University, getting a visa, and other things. Just like a puzzle which is slowly being formed, the hidden picture became clearer. So clear indeed that on August 25, 2013 I came to Korea to start a long adventure.

And I'm not going to waste this opportunity. I will definitely make the most out of it. My adventures in Kimchiland.
