The countdown is on... again.

So over the past four months I have been in Korea I have learned a lot, seen a lot and done a lot. As the old adage goes, all (good) things must come to an end. I have had ups and downs here, and I have decided it is time for me to move on and pursue my Masters in Teaching. There were several reasons for this decision, but it mostly comes down to the fact that school better suits my needs at the moment. Alas, I am headed to Australia to go to Teacher's college. The best part of this is I get to go home for a month over Christmas! My mom sent me a Chocolate Advent Calendar in the mail so I have a sweet accompaniment to go with my countdown. When the package arrived, it was all bent and some of the chocolates broken, but it is doing the job very well. I have only two more weeks of teaching left; I can't believe how quickly it has gone by- in some ways it feels like I just got here, but in other ways I feel like I have been here a year as well. When one door closes, another opens and I am really quite excited to see what life has in store for the next little while. A girl who I met years ago through an old roommate is also going to the same campus as I am- aaaannd she is also in Korea. So, naturally we got together over the weekend to discuss the upcoming year and what is in store for us. Let the new adventure commence.... Annyonghi keyseo Korea, G'day Australia. I am just full of cheesy cliches today.
