As it seems I have secured a scholarship for a 6 month language course in Tianjin (China) and this will allow me to study a lot of Weiqi on the afternoons and weekends. Sadly the scholarship is quite tiny though so I scrambling for money. ^^
But anyways yay for China and more Weiqi! Even if i starve a bit ^^
I'll post more infos as I get on them.
ETA to China Mid-End August~~~

Progressing to China
As probably some readers already know my current plan is to study Weiqi in China due to the possibility of gaining a language scholarship there due to me finishing my BA degree in Chinese this summer so I have been busy filling out the forms required to apply for it.
The desired area where I want to go is Tianjin/Beijing area as there is probably the biggest concentration of Weiqi schools to go to. I will be contacting the Zhongguo Qiyuan shortly and inquire about study possibilities. I'll report those back once I know more about.
Right now I have completed a important step towards a longterm visa and the scholarship subsequently as I have passed the health check with flying colours.
Time left until going to China: 6 Months
To do:
- Submit scholarsip application
- aquire student visa
- Contact Zhongguo Qiyuan
- find a Weiqi school to study in
- have a plan B rental apartment option in case no scholarship is aquired
- study more Chinese
- study more more Weiqi

Intermission
*Just a short notice about recent happenings apart from my usual articles*
Yesterday Kim-sabomnim updated us about changes and news concerning us and the KBC. He told us that at the end of April they will announce the students who will get a scholarship. About 10 will get a scholarship and thus are enabled to stay longer in Korea to study Baduk. As we are only 15 students currently my chances are good to get a scholarship.
Additionally the most exciting thing however is that those scholarship students will probably become Yeongusaeng (Insei). So we will be participating the Insei-leagues and tournaments. Soooo exciting! Maybe from May on i will be a Yeongusaeng.
