Safety training and Tying up loose ends

After recent "accidents" in Korea and plane crashes, they were like wake up calls for me. Nothing is guaranteed, or certain. Who should you trust?

Preparation Work

  • Safety precautions 
  • Emergency drills
  • Possible emergencies may include fire in subway (2003 Daegu subway fire), flooding, landslides, typhoon

Call me paranoid but I am responsible for my own well being. When even locals didn't stand a chance to live in certain disasters, the minimum I a foreigner can do is to know as much as I can about the place I am going to.

I've decided to put aside time to settle some ... still unfinished... business, to tie up loose ends, to heck care that fear and just do it, to say whatever I need to, to settle the past, to meet up with the present (friends), to clarify things before I go. Never will I get another chance again to come home with such a new beginning, this $2700 will be worth it :)

I will come home to a new room, ready for my 5 months internship :)

Update
It is good to be careful and be prepared. Prevention is better than cure is saying I always remind myself. When I arrived in South Korea, there was a serious big fire a the Subway station. I mean our lives are precious. To make a effort to be careful and take precautions is important. I think I became more alert and conscious of dangers and hazards around me.

There are natural disasters in South Korea. In Singapore, it is safe with none of them. I was worried I may not be able to react correctly and appropriately. That Year I was in Korean was also the Siwon sinking ship accident. Watching the hundreds who died and perish in the water, I feel sad for their parents and themselves too. If only one of the students had a alertness for danger and peril, they would just follow their instincts and live to tell the tale. Condolences to them sincerely with love.
