Dartmouth
was our destination for today; we all had to be ready by 7:30 AM in order to
get there in time. It was a three hour drive and let's says I definitely caught
up in my sleep during this time. We made it to the lunch right on time; this
dinner consisted of Dartmouth students. The main person I conversed with was
Jina and Elizabeth. They provided great information and I truly like the fact
they don't try to sell the school to us. They truly wish to just give us
differs options; discuss the pros and cons of Dartmouth and the transition
stages for each individual.
Jina and Elizabeth stressed the importance that for me
wherever I go should be comfortable and the best fit for me, this advice lets
me feel comfortable with whatever decision I shall make in the future. Again
the topic of homesickness came up and as I have been feeling a little
homesickness, the word of others saying that homesickness will go away and it is normal, makes me more comfortable and allows me to accept the idea of moving to
the East Coast more.
After the lunch, we departed for our tour of the campus. The
campus is very nice and Eco friendly which I enjoyed very much. I also like how
the school doesn't really have assigned classes for a freshman and lets us
choose from the beginning. This allows me to really focus on my interests and
not something that all universities offer. After our time in Dartmouth we
headed back to Providence for YeonSoo birthday dinner. Again it was a three hour
car ride but we slept through most of it, which made time pass by fast.
Once we got back to Providence we all went to Teriyaki House
for Korean food, here I learned how to use chopsticks. Before we left we cut
YeonSoo surprise birthday cake and went back to our hotels to blog. It’s crazy
to think that we only have one more official day to blog. I truly enjoyed my
experience with the ILC and I am super grateful to have had the opportunity to
experience this, I can’t wait to go back to my community and share my
experience.
