Well, yesterday after work I started wandering around close to my house and kept walking and walking until I bumped into Masan University. It's a beautiful new campus tucked away in the mountains. I apologize for the pictures, I only had my cellphone with me, but I'll definitely go back there soon and take more pictures. I also got there pretty late (just as the sun was setting), so I didn't get to see as much as I was hoping, but I'll be back!
The main gate to the university...it doesn't look like much, but it has to be like 20-30 feet tall:
I have seen this in other places...really vibrant flowers growing out of the rock...looks awesome:
These guys smelled soooooo good in the warm evening air!
I went to the top of this building...has some pretty neat views :)
Massive amphitheatre between buildings:
On the top floor of that building (I think they're Buddhist statues...again, please forgive the horrible quality)...I think the lights in the background are Hogye/Jung-ri
Like most universities, Masan has a signature building too...this guy...behind a mini park/walkway that looks PERFECT for reading a book at on a warm summer evening:
I wandered all around and found a neat hillside behind the buildings...it was too dark to go too far, but I think there might be some good views from the top or it might be dark enough for some half-decent startrails!
Anyhoo, there is still tons to be explored and re-shot at Masan University, so I'm definitely going to be back...right now, though, I have to run and teach a class...if they show up. Today, my school is hosting a competition between teachers from near and far. Apparently they'll teach a class and be observed and graded. Their grades will be taken into consideration when selections for principals and stuff come up. They're all stressing out about it. I find it entertaining. They might borrow one of my classes for their demonstration class, so it might be an easy day for me :)
Hope everyone's having a great day/night (depending on where in the world you are :)) and thanks for reading!
