This would be my first time staying in Korea during the holidays 🎄❄️, and I am looking forward to the experience going into the new year 🎆.

To be honest, I have nothing planned out of what I want to do for the holidays 🎁 since I am not one to be outside in such cold temperatures 🥶 anyway. This time, however, I will be busy with schedules outside of my home here (for reasons I cannot control 🗓️).

I have just one course to complete, Introduction to Statistics 📊, to graduate this coming February 2025 🎓. To avoid staying here for an extra semester, I prayed 🙏 that I could have the course offered during the winter AND be in English (and it came true! 🎉). Classes started on the 26th and will end on January 17th, so I had to be at school the DAY AFTER Christmas 🎅🎄. I did not get much of an academic break 📚 since I handed in my last final on the 23rd. At least for the course, it’s a blend of prerecorded and offline classes 🎥📖, and the building is close to the main gate 🚪, so I’m quickly in and out of campus.
