My bags are packed and I'm ready to go...

It's 4:00 P.M. on Feb. 29 and I'm sitting in Incheon International Airport awaiting my flight to Vancouver, then to L.A., then to Oklahoma. It's been a whirlwind of ups and downs these past few days trying to get packed and getting rid of stuff. It's a miracle that I got everything in just two bags and two carry-ons. I did have to pay for an extra bag. Only one bag for free allowance, which is just ridiculous!!!! But I got everything despite a flight cancellation and change. I can't believe it's been two years. It really only feels like I've been here for a few months. I know that this has been an incredible growing experience and I wouldn't change it for the world!!! For me I can't even fathom the fact that a lot of people haven't been out of the country that they are from. I can't imagine never leaving The states....ever. It's just wrong!!!! It all started with my three months living in England and after that and the traveling I got to do while I was there I knew that I would always be a traveler. It's hard to stay in one place.

Well there are so many thoughts in my head right now that I can't even organize, so I'll save that for another time. I just can't wait to get home. This time tomorrow I will be back in OKC wishing Taco Bueno was still open!!!!!!

See you all soon!!!!

Bittersweet!!!

Today is my last day of work! Knowing I will probably never see most of these people again makes me wish I had learned Korean and talked to them a little more. But, oh well. lol

14 days until I come home and in those 14 days I will...surrender my iPhone over to another person, get my teeth cleaned Friday because will have no insurance at home. Joint going away party Saturday night, 26th birthday on Tuesday, birthday dinner Thursday night, and inbetween all those things clean and pack. I can't believe I have two weeks left here. I don't think it's really sunk in. I've been so excited and yet I feel like it's just normal two weeks ahead. But, as next week approaches I'm sure things will start to sink in.

When I get home March 1 it will be the start of probably the craziest month EVER!!!! haha Enrolling for summer school, getting a phone so I'm connected again, bridesmaid in a friends wedding, jury duty, thinning out my closet and boxes of clothes and shoes I shipped home, seeing people. AHHHHHH As much as I'd just like to relax before I get back to reality, life won't let me. :(

So, here's to my last two weeks in Korea and the next chapter of my life back in the states!!!! It's been a crazy ride and I know it's just going to get crazier!!!!
