After finding out that there are potential positive COVID infections within our group, I had a nightmare last night where I flew back to the states early. I woke up from the dream around 5:45am and realized that I was still in Korea. I was glad that I didn’t leave yet, but I also felt a lot of anxiety and adrenaline. It was like I was on flight mode, so I got up and put my clothes on and headed out the door right away.
After leaving the dorm, I started calming down. The sun has not risen yet, so I took this opportunity to go on a jog and eventually ended up at “Sky Park”. The view from up there was amazing. Eventually, I headed down and went back to my dorm room. I felt like I my anxiety/adrenaline was still going off, so I showered and then headed to “Sky Road” to get some breakfast and restock on supplies. I was able to get the famous bakery, and got a veggie croquette and a veggie sandwich from there. I also was able to get a good photo shot of the “Mokcheokgyo Bridge” before leaving which really made my day since it was on my bucket list. I was able to get back to my dorm right before a Covid zoom meeting. After the meeting I headed back to “Sky Road” because I really wanted another pair of “Discovery Expedition” scandals that one of the Korean students recommended to me. The brand is known for their soft and comfortable footwear, which really helped my aching knees. After I got my second pair of scandals, I headed to the 5 floor Daiso that everyone was talking about. I didn’t get anything there because I kind of got everything I needed already but I really wanted to check it out. After Daiso, it was around 7pm and I knew the sun is setting at 8pm, so I rode the bus to Expo Park. I got to the park just in time for the sunset and was able to get an amazing shot of the Expo Bridge. Expo Park has a water area where families relax and eat food which was fun to observe. My day started out as a nightmare, but that nightmare motivated me to jog to “Sky Park”, go to “Sky Road”, check out “Mokcheokgyo Bridge”, learn more about a new shoe brand called “Discovery Expedition”, experience the 5 floor Daiso, and make the trip to “Expo Park” to get an amazing shot of the “Expo Bridge”. -Jonathan Jay
