FYP @ KAIST
Sunday, 30 September 2007 3:40 am
Just checked my mail, and Dr. Lee decided to host me for my FYP at KAIST.
Oh yeah! Korea, here I come again!
But I am not as excited as I probably would be a few months back. Strangely, fears hit me. I am starting to wonder what my parents will say, how I will survive 3 to 4 months in a foreign country with language barrier. Being away from home for so long, I don't know what is awaiting for me there. I will not be as pampered as like I went to Dong-A, no one to take care of me, I have to do things by myself. Where am I going to stay, etc. Suddenly alot of questions just pop out. I feel quite lost actually.
I am feeling so lost, so confused and so scared.The only consoling thing is that I am not going there alone. Another course mate is going to the same university as well. Though I don't know him yet, it is really comforting to know that someone is going with you, still within abit of comfort zone.
Another consoling thing would probably be that I am staying there for about 3-4 months only, as compared to INSTEP, for about 6 months. Before you know it, 16 weeks is gone. I survived 3 weeks in Korea already, so 16 shouldn't be that bad.
What happens to the man? What will happen before I leave, and what will happen after I come back?
