Reflection I have always been enamored by the beauty of our Earth, the plethora of forms and cultures present, all unique and distinct with so many different ideas and beliefs. My curiosity has always been piqued by the people who have the skill to document all these different experiences and stories from the variety available in this globalized era. As I mentioned in my statement of purpose, while applying for my visa, .

Aman also mentioned something similar about building your profile through your work and behavior. My Optimism is something I have always prided myself for.

My first few days in Brisbane were spent, attending information sessions held by QUT like the ‘Welcome to Brisbane’ or the ‘Library 101’. In one such session, I found out how an online profile like linkedin acts as a resume for potential employers. So, I spent the next few days working on my linkedin profile. As another form of online presence I want to make a website for myself, which would have all the works I complete while at university. I have already started up a YouTube channel as a part of KPB101 but I would like to see how far I can take my channel with my own creative content. I also went to the Exhange information sessions where students themselves made presentations and it was apparent through their delivery that an exchange experience is worth it. I also realized that I have become more independent aftercoming to

I was born in the US to two parents who had lived their whole lives in Korea. Soon after I was born, our family moved to Hong Kong, and I’ve been at Hong Kong ever since.
