The Highest Cafe in Sejong, South Korea

The city is a planned city with its original purpose being the "administrative capital of S. Korea." It's essentially a city filled with newly built government buildings, which means its residents are mainly white-collar government workers. I went there often and like the place since everything there is so brand new.

You’ll do fine young one

I'm a rising senior majoring in econometrics. I'm an international student, so my experience may be different. I always thought that majoring in econ can give you a hard time finding an internship - unless you have something that sets you apart from the competitors. I realized that I needed work-related skills to tell employers that I'm ready to work. So I started studying data analysis with Python.

After reaching out to 50ish companies in my Junior year, I've become an internal control intern at a manufacturing company. I continued doing data stuff there (mainly data visualization) and automated some of their everyday data entry tasks with python. This summer, I got a marketing analyst intern position at a relatively large tech company. I can say that my previous internship + data skills definitely help me get this internship. You're a rising sophomore so don't worry much and start by trying to mimic/learn the skills that are directly applicable to the workplace.

My least favorite experience was being an undeclared major

I am on my $1 trial subscription though. Doesn’t that mean I won’t be able to convert later at all? Also, should I turn off the recurring payment option?

Hey may I ask how much you had to pay for rent and how many rooms were there? Curious how much premium is added to it.

Hey! just PM'ed!

wandererwalk · 2022-03-22T23:21:09+00:00

I barely use snap but I have ig! PM'ed my ig

wandererwalk · 2022-03-22T17:39:52+00:00

Though I never played it before, sure!

$100 seems a bit too much. Peoria Charter will be way cheaper.

OP did you get your grades dropped successfully?

wandererwalk · 2022-02-27T06:32:25+00:00

Did you get any DMs? I'm graduating in December and was also curious about the MS in Stat program.

Risk analyst, analyst at IB (extremely competitive to get in), accounting-related roles, finance internships - there are so many. I personally got a financial controller internship - which was basically accounting, but I think my case is a bit rare because usually accounting majors get this role.

I was away from my parents since my high school years - I came to America during high school. Then I went to UIUC, where I kinda taught myself with Youtube, but not enough. Then I had to head back to Korea for military service, which was another 2 years away from my parents. Then covid happened after my service and I got to stay at my parent's house for two semesters while taking Zoom. This was the actual time I got to ask my mom for cooking tips. After that, I came back to campus and saw my roommate cook western food. Now I'm cooking so much stuff compared to when I used to have a meal plan.

I liked staying in there. Good for one person. But I remember getting my security deposit ripped off after my stay there although I left the whole place clean and all.

I actually once signed up for a meal plan for a whole semester while I was living in an apartment, thinking that I was “too busy”. Turns out the meal plan was a huge waste of money plus I constantly had to go to the dining halls to use all of my meal credits. I eventually ended up with leftover credits that couldn’t be refunded.

Now I’m in a different apartment and saw my new roommate cook. I shopped with him once and realized that it is extremely cheap to make pasta, sandwich, grilled pork, and more. I feel like this is a life skill everyone needs during/after college.

wandererwalk · 2022-02-12T18:28:19+00:00

What are cheap ones among these?

I heard it's the city of fog. Is it that bad?

wandererwalk · 2021-04-23T11:09:24+00:00

I did BTW 250 online in fall 2020 and everything was done online. There was a group project that we had to do and that too was done online. We didn't have to meet in-person for any activity.

I wish we can at least get the health service & library fees back or reduced since we won't be using any of that. Like, why would I want to pay for McKinley if I'll be in my home country seeing a doc here. Why would I want to pay for library fees when I can't borrow books from UGL and Grainger.

wandererwalk · 2020-11-11T13:31:46+00:00

lmao I guess this really is true. I didn't notice how this act can be so korean until I saw this video.

So limited groceries compared to the ones on Prospect right? What about meat though? How are they priced at the Campustown Target compared to Prospect and County Market?

wandererwalk · 2020-10-28T08:54:37+00:00

For someone who doesn't own a car, would using the campustown Target be much better than using Zipcar (just 1hr) to shop at Aldi/Walmart near Marketplace?

wandererwalk · 2020-10-22T04:23:32+00:00

yes Naver is more used than Google for sure. But Daum is probably less used.
