wrapping up

The time has come!! On Sunday I fly out the country for an unspecified amount of time. Whenever there is a big change about to occur in people's lives a question always seems to loom. What are you doing after graduation? What are you majoring? Who are you living with? My question- how do you feel? The last two weeks it fluctuates every hour. One moment I am elated about finally following my dream to live overseas, the other I get a knot in my stomach that makes me want to run and hide in a closet. A monstrous closet with plenty of cookie dough and Scrubs episodes to escape the unavoidable change. The rapid shifting of my emotions makes me feel a little crazy! Nevertheless, underneath it all I am excited about the unknown and what changes like will bring. Not only for myself, but friends and family back home. During my absence this year two weddings will be celebrated, four babies will be born, and several friends will start graduate school. Who knows what else will happens?
In the upcoming blog entries I promise to actually have stories about KOREA and not my pensive anticipation. Seriously, I promise.
