things that happened when I arrived in the US

Maybe it is not a funny story. This situation was very hard and gave me some stress. However in memory, it is a very memorable story in these days.

When I arrived in the US five days ago, I recognized I failed to get my dorm or any apartment. Also my hotel couldn't extend one more day. It means I was homeless. For this reason, I was getting nervous. So, I started to find any apartment in downtown, but I couldn't find anything because there was no office of apartment. In addition, they just provided a phone number of a landlord in 'for renting' sign. And one more bad thing was I didn't have a cell phone. Thus, I spent half a day riding a bicycle which I rented from 'World of Bikes', and gathered list of phone numbers of landlords. But of course, I failed to contact to the landlords because I couldn't understand their auto answering machine recordings; their speech speed was very fast for me. Then, I contacted one member of the Korean association in Iowa, and finally, I succeeded to rent a apartment with his help.

It was pretty hard for a Korean who was not good at speaking English, but I succeeded.
This experience made me confident and strong.

Hello I'm David

Hello, My name is David. I want to introduce myself.

I'm 20 years old Korean. Of course, I'm male.

Now, I'm taking IIEP course - My class is E2. I think it is best class in IIEP!! for improve my English skill and take TOEFL, then join to be undergraduate student in UI.

Now, I'm living in 'the lodge' which is located in Hawk Ridge Drive. Maybe it is littlebit far from college, but that is only bad thing to stay in here. My room was fully-furnished before I moved, and nice neighborhood such as Marc, Charlie -Maybe they are not~!!!!
Also, it serves basketball court, fitness club and spa for free. Every day I use them for fun.

In my free time, I usually watch TV for my English skill better. Also I love sports. I have soccer game league once a week on every Sunday, and play basketball with my friends, D, Marc, Sang Joon, Charlie, and another people.
