I came into the Shooting Stars Drama Society at the start of the 2014/15 term. The floors of The Garage were sticky, there was a smell of the previous night in the air and the touch of acting genius upon my soul. I instantly fell in love with the drama workshops. While they are often bonkers, politically incorrect and off-the-cuff, our vice-president, Robert, always has a trick up his sleeve to improve our improvisation and characterisation skills in a fun and engaging way. An example would be the game in which we are split into two sub-groups and told to think of two random words for the other sub-group to come up with a sketch with. We received “Lobster Train”. This turned into a Monty Python style skit involving lobsters serving lobsters to lobsters on a train to Ipswich. On Thursdays we have rehearsals for upcoming shows. These are stricter as we are following a specific text, although they are just as fun. To pay for some of the production costs, a number of us had to stand in the street in front of a costume store, in costume. This meant that on my 18th Birthday, I stood on George Street in a Pig Costume dancing for over 3 hours. At one point I was threatened with violence and in that moment, the acting bug was so infectious that I came to terms with being stabbed to death on the pavement, as I turned into a legal adult, while dressed as a pig. Being in RGU’s Drama society has been an awesome experience.

High eminent buildings and low fascinatingly painted palaces, abundant choices of international cuisine and a rich variety of traditional dishes, blissful warm and numb freezing temperatures, a profusion of colours in each place and every day. This is South Korea. For someone who enjoys travelling this is love at first sight. Having the chance to go on a four-month journey while studying is a life-changer. You find yourself while travelling, that you explore the world, and you understand a different culture. RGU Study Abroad presents a great opportunity that shouldn’t be missed. 0 , 5 ( / $ 3 ( 1 & + ( 9 $ %$ -RXUQDOLVP
I am sure it is against the rules for me to say that you wouldn’t be going abroad for the studying, but for the experience. However, facing another world is a valuable lesson, especially when there is a language barrier. You would definitely improve your skills in charades and sign language. To be honest to survive in Korea, you only need two words: 안녕하세요 (Hello) and 감사합니다 (Thank you) and many Koreans can speak English but it is great fun to communicate with the locals partly in English, partly in Korean, partly in a non-existent language.
