They got these Keimyung jackets here at the Keimyung Univ. If you want, you could order one with your own choice of print to the left sleeve, and alternatively with South Korean flag or your starting year here at the Keimyung to the left shoulder. Of course we ordered them also, and finally on this Monday we received an email saying that they are arrived! Yeii! What a great start to the week! I got the South Korean flag and a.. well let’s just say I got a print to my left sleeve..!

Everybody was anxious about the jackets and of course we had to take some photos. The photo session at the evening got out of hands.. Everybody was with their cameras taking photos, and the most enthusiastic guys were taking photos for some 3 hours. Somebody said that ”now we are a big KELI-army!”

One private of the KELI-army got pretty tough ”orders” on Tuesday when Eston came to my room and said that ”hey about the Korean food presentation we supposed to hold on Friday.. I checked it one more time and I noticed it is today, in two hours..”
DAMN!
Honestly, I think I have never hold a presentation about anything so badly prepared. And in English. Enjoying new experiences in student exchange.. I laughed afterwards a big time, but I did well! Some 10 minutes presenting this Korean dish Bulgogi.

On Wednesday I sent few letters back to Finland. I had sent few postcards before, and it cost like nothing here. Compared to Finland’s prices. I was unsure them even going all to way to Finland, cos’ I paid 0,34 € for stamps to one postcard. But I got confirmation that at least one postcard has made it to the right address..!

We got info about this football (soccer) match which was about to be played on Wednesday evening at the Daegu stadium. We got interested. Right before we arrived there somebody checked the internet and noticed that the match isn’t going to be a big one. The Stadium – capacity of 65000 people – was almost empty when we arrived there. They played few games of the 2002 FIFA World Cup there and the 2011 World Championships in Athletics were held on that stadium so it wasn’t really a big loss. Stadium was awesome! And big!
