10 Day Korea countdown...
Shizaaaam (my cat) wanders happily around the apartment these daze, visiting the myriad of boxes that surround me now, this physical chaos serves as a constant yet colourful reminder of the adventure that is about to occur.
Today was supposed to be Yard Sale Day. A dozen of drenched hand-made posters around the neighbourhood are proof of my good intentions, but sponteneity failed in a fight against the ominous rain clouds of a neverending series of showers.
With only 10 days and about 10 minutes left until I board the 747 to Suwon, S.K. l I am almost ready. My bank account is skinny because of a (non-refundable) plane ticket purchase, as well as the piles of toilettries, contact lenses and allergy medicine.
A Girl Guide true and true, I like to be well prepared. I struggle with the well-organized part, but still manage to be prepared.
In order to help deflate my slight discomfort with flying, I have many activities to keep myself occupied. If the people surrounding me are boring or not in the mood for talking, I have tunes, books, sharpies for drawing, and gravol! I have even researched the safest seats on a 747. Although rather unhelpful in the end, I hope to be close to an emergency exit since seat safety is unsurprisingly subjective to crash conditions.
I will be tackling a giant to-do list this week, including the final steps of securing my Visa (pretty important) and spending some quality time with boyfriend and friends- er I don't really have any friends (but that will change soon?!)
Haha, enough embarassing revelations for one night, Harry Potter, Ron, and Hermione need my help.
