One DAY left!

actually i've got the rest of this day and tomorrow but this day's half over anyway lol

we've pretty much got all things packed- just have to stuff a few odds and ends into our suitcases and we'll be ready go!

it's surreal. i thought i would never feel any sadness when leaving korea but i am! when you say to yourself - this is the LAST time i'll eat at the restaurant, go to this job, see these people, be in this apartment, see this view, etc. it's hard NOT to be sad, ya know?

i just hope that once i get back to the states i'll be satisfied with the amount of things we did in korea and in asia as a whole (because who knows if and when i'll ever get back here!). sure we could have done more but we didn't wanna overdo ourselves. we didn't wanna go out EVERY weekend and i'm glad we didn't. i cherish our quiet sat. mornings at home just as much as our road trip/campout/wandering around the big city weekends.

i haven't seen all of korea but i've seen quite a bit. and i've seen several places many times so that i feel like i really know them. i think jens and i enjoy that more- really getting to know a few places rather than seeing a little bit of EVERY place.

we'll be packing and cleaning tonight.

tomorrow is my last day at work. i've got 3 movie day classes and then lunch and i'll be free to go! we've got to go by the bank, make sure we were paid, send money to our account in the states and then close our accounts here in korea. then it's official- we're leaving!

tomorrow night we'll be going to an all you can eat meat restaurant with friends, then to a few bars and to a noraebang for the last time ever! i can't believe it! yes, there's a noraebang in dallas but i know it won't be the same. in korea there's a noraebang on every corner! just in case you get the itch to pop in and belt out a few songs at any given moment lol

i'm hoping i don't cry tomorrow night...although i probably will AT LEAST when we say bye to our friends for the night (or for the indefinite future! or forever! who knows!) i had a friend here once who would say- don't say goodbye, just say "see ya tomorrow!" lol

i feel torn right now- i know i want to leave but there are things about my life here i will miss and i'm excited about moving back to texas but at the same time i'm worried what the future holds! it's such a big change, so much to deal with...

but here goes nothin'! lol
