I have 10 days left.

Of school, that is.  I can't believe I'm almost done my year (+2 months) in South Korea.  I knew this year would go fast.  Not fast enough for some of the more challenging parts.  And there were challenges, let me tell you.

It's weird because I fancy myself as one who loves being in another country.  And I always have a hard time leaving.  But this time around, I have to say, honestly, I can't wait to go.  Perhaps it's because I have big things coming up in the near future, which I'm sooooo looking forward to.  Maybe it's because I get to go to a new country and experience a new culture, yet again.  It's nice to have more travels in my not too distant future. It's even better knowing I'll be getting a shiny, new traveling partner to go with.

I had all these thoughts in my head walking home from school and I really wanted to share them.  But I've forgotten them.  I should have jotted them down right away, but my stomach was grumbling and there were chicken fingers to be eaten.  But they went something like this:

*I can't believe this year is almost over.
*You don't realize how great it was where you came from until you've left it.
*I'm pretty ready to go.
*I'm sure in hindsight, I'll remember there were some memorable things about this cross-cultural escapade.
*But all I'm thinking about right now is if we should have a candy buffet at the reception.

I've been thinking of you lately and wondering if your stint was coming to an end. And about wedding details -- do you have a date?
[Try to] Enjoy your last few days!
