Japanese or Scottish?

Today was an interesting day... we had our second lecture, International Management with Yi Chang. Her name in itself says quite a lot of where she's from; Japan, China, Korea perhaps? Anyway, her accent was very... interesting. Even for us it was a struggle to understand what she wanted to communicate to the class, and by the looks of the others they had the same problem...

Guess it's gonna be one of those classes we reeeeally have to listen carefully and not miss out on a word - that was the problem today; if we missed even a sentence, we were lost! It actually started to sound like Japanese...! So we're wondering... do we need to have some kind of previous studies in Japanese to pass this course perhaps? Anyway, it's gonna be interesting actually understanding what she's saying, or trying to teach, as the powerpoints were very disoriented... We'll see how it goes ;)

Afterwards we went to the Sports Fayre at the Student Centre. Pretty enlightening actually. Quite a few sports to choose from; Basketball, Hockey, Football, Rugby, Netball, Badminton etc etc, and Sky Diving! :) That really caught our attention, sounded like fun, and is at least cheaper to experience here than back home in Finland... Going to go listen to the information session on next Tuesday, so we'll know more then...but it would be sooo exciting, don't u think?
