I decided to trot on this journey of Summer exchange to Seoul with an expectation to liberate myself as well expose myself to a different environment. This was done so while keeping in mind that I had to extend another semester of school even though I had fulfilled all requirements expected of me in attaining a university degree.
Thank God, the most unlikely situation occurred. I was accepted into this programme and at the same time, I need not extend another semester - the best option. So, here I am with the best of two worlds in my hands. I went ahead with this programme and I graduated. This collection page here is a commemoration of this journey I had before I start work and for celebrating my hardwork in enduring all the bitter books I held in for my parents.

ReplyDeleteHi! Thnks I loved this trip and the mug I made for my Dad too but I broke it while applying colours on it. The handle gave way before it hardened. Was really sad by this but thankfully had a photo of it to show my dad :)
