POSCO and Starcraft

Had a good day yesterday. We went to GNU and saw another propaganda video for the school. Maybe this sort of thing is effective here, but it is a little weird to me.

Met the president of the school. Was a bit annoying, because to show his status they had us waiting for him for a while and then I had to move twice to get farther away from him. Bloody aristocracy; thank God Dad's a French Revolution Scholar so I can rail against people of a higher social class than me without being a goddamn communist.

Headin' off to breakfast now, so hopefully I'll get this updated later today. Cool thing is that I got in touch with Elly, who got in touch with her friend, who got in touch with me and Elly's mom, so tonight ~7:30 they'll come and pick me up. Not sure what we're going to do, but it should be interesting to meet them. Unfortunately it is hard to get in touch with them here; local call aren't free and the instructions elly gave me for public phones didn't seem to work for me.

Ciao!
