Is it spring or summer?

Ever since school started, my motivation to study has been down. Probably because the weather has been really good these days in Victoria. Especially today! It went up to 20 degrees I think. I never really made sure though. When I see the sun, I am the type to be lazy and never want to study. However despite what I really want to do, I did manage to study some Korean language this morning. However, afterwards, my teacher and I decided to chill around downtown Victoria.
The weather was so good, we decided to go eat some fish and chips. The best fish and chips in town has to be "Red Chip Blue Chip." It is so good that there's always a long line up at the place. I think we waited for about 2 hrs or so. However the wait was TOTALLY worth it! It was super delicious!
Let me give u a tip when buying fish and chips. If u r together with a friend, it is so much cheaper when you buy a 2-piece and then u split the costs with a friend. At this place 1-piece cod was $10. 2-piece cod was $15! We bought 2-piece saw in the end, if we included tax, the both of us ended up paying only $8 each. Well you save $3 or so but it's still savings! We also wanted to try something different on their menu as well so we decided on their seafood poutine which uses miso-clam gravy which was super delicious! We got the half portion which was $6. In the end we got double the portion by a normal price of just a 1-piece in the end. However it doesn't matter. We ate out today.
Afterwards we walked around as we looked at people. It was really strange? Or more interesting to see lots and lots of people in Victoria. Especially with their dogs. We figured it was because of the weather and summer is definitely tourist season in Victoria.
Since Starbucks has happy hour, it would be a waste not to get a 50% off frappucino eh?
Afterwards I went home to my cool basement which was much needed after walking in the 20 degree "heat" all day. Today may be the start of summer. Spring is definitely coming to an end this week. At least I really hope the weather forecast is correct these days.
Well if there's rain I can focus on my one class during summer school. lol
(Although these days I've been doing some French self studying. Which is actually much more fun then I thought. Learning on my own pace is better than how I was taught in high school me thinks... lol)
Anyways I'm going to return to watching this new Japanese drama I found. Good night or morning. Seeing as it is 2am right now. Hey! It's the weekend I can do this! lol
(Although I shouldn't I KNOW!)

Jeju Island

Last weekend, my friend and I and her family went to Jeju island. Since my friend and I still have school we decided to only stay for 2 nights and 3 days. Her family was going to stay a couple more days than us. However, first we arrived in Jeju at around noon and met the tour guide. Since there was 6 of us all together one of us had to sit in the back. My friend's sister did it on the first day. Once we arrived, we wanted lunch and we ate some galbitang. Galbitang is basically rib soup? or beef soup? They stick a piece of meat in a soup and you add salt and pepper to your own desire. It's very bland without salt and pepper and without all the side dishes they provide you. Since my friend's parents are not good with the spicy foods. Galbitang was good but it took a lot of time to eat. On the way to our pension or resort house thing?, or the place we were going to stay over at, we stopped by the beach and took some pictures. The view was beautiful and the color of the ocea...

First 4 days of Orientation

Midterm week

I cannot believe that this week is almost over. I did not think I would survive this week properly but here I am, on a thursday night writing in my blog. On Monday, I had my second midterm. It was my East Asian Religion & Culture class. I only had a 2 hour study session for the class and afterwards, I didn't really study much to be honest. So I was a little nervous coming into class that day. The teacher assistant came late, so it just increased my nerves for the day. When we finally got the exams, I realized, I knew more of the midterms than I expected, it was just a lot of writing that I had to do. I found myself writing the same themes over and over again but with different words. In a way that was relatively similar to the way he was lecturing his classes and the way Chuang Tsu has written his philosophy. It is basically the same but there are variations of the same theme I feel. Anyways the midterm went better than I expected, however, you never know what might happen. So,...
