NOODLES AND THINGS
Korea, Noodles, and One Excited Boy
THANK YOU,
MR. FREEMAN
Dear Mr. Graeme Freeman,
​
Ever since I came across the song, "My My" by Apink in 2012 on TV, I became super interested in Korean culture. Not only the language, but the many different cities, towns, and ways of life there.
​
Now fast forward 7 years, and thanks to the generosity and kindness of you and your family, I will be able to enjoy and immerse myself in this experience without worrying about most of the burden that money can bring.
​
I hope to make the most out of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that has been given to me. I would like to incorporate everything great that I've learned so far with the new challenges and adversities that are yet to come. Through this blog, I hope to share my personal experiences with you and anyone else in gratitude and for my own ability to forever look back.
​
Thank you,
​

GETTING TO KNOW ME
First and foremost, my name is Michael Jitchaku. I am planning on studying abroad at Yonsei University during the fall in 2019. Currently, I am a senior double majoring in Accounting and Management Information Systems, but am looking into Finance as a third one.
​
My personal interests are primarily video games and sports. As of right now, I mainly play League of Legends and Hearthstone. As for sports, I'm a fan of the Yankees and a few NBA teams.
​
Fun fact I'm a huge fan of the groups GFriend, and Girls' Generation, and hope to see them in Korea if I'm lucky.
