annyeong haseyo!

Have not been blogging for awhile. Von kept asking me why I didn’t update my blog. I guess I was just plainly lazy or maybe busy.

Recently, I’ve taken up the free Korean language class in MMU. Prof Kim, come to Malaysia to do some research, and had decided to give the MMU community free Korean classes. I enjoyed myself in his class. He taught us a new Korean song. I’ve learnt a few words in Korean. We practiced it among ourselves. A lot of my friends took the class too, since it’s free. :p

On the first class, Mr Kim asked us to write what we feel about Korea and how we could improve the class. We suggested organizing a class trip to Korea. Little did we know that, our idea was taken seriously by our lecturer. He invited us to visit Korea this second week of March,2006 , when he returned to his hometown for 2 weeks. Whoa.. I was speechless. Accommodation, food and tour guide provided. And now, with the current MAS travel fair, how could I resist it? However as much as I wanted to join the trip, I couldn’t, due to my financial constraint and my workload.

The way I see Mr Kim is that he’s passionate in what he’s doing now. I really do envy those that can work towards their dream, just like pastors, fes workers, social workers, missionaries, artists, designers, singers or even educator.

I wish and hope and pray that one day I, too could find a job/career/path that I’m passionate about.
