a fast fab five (+ 16) to the finish.

5 days left of work. Count 'em. 1-2-3-4-5. It seems like I've been counting down to this week for awhile, but I must admit that it will be a bittersweet day when I finish work on Friday. I will be reallly sad to say goodbye to some of my kiddos and co-teachers...

Last weekend was a birthday/farewell party for a few friends here. A lot of people are leaving this fall and it's already begun. I don't particularly like goodbyes when I'm not the leaver, so I'm kind of glad to be the next one from our little community to go.

My apartment is in organized-shambles right now (do you like my usage of oxymoron's? Korea has taught me to be oh so clever) due to my inability to decide what to keep, what to toss and what to give away. Even though I'm not leaving for another 3 weeks, I have to be packed up and out of my apartment by Friday night/Saturday morning in order for the new teacher to move in, or for Scott to switch apartments.

After Friday, I will be on a 16 day whirlwind of holiday, travel and goodbyes. For those (Bill) who are interested, is a quick breakdown of my plans:
8/31: Last day of school
9/1-9/2: Daegu visiting Myung Mi and her family
9/3: Seoul
9/4-9/11: Hong Kong to visit Eric & So Hang, city lights, beach town(s), SHOPPING!!!
9/12: Gimhae/Busan
9/13-9/15: Pohang. Goodbyes to the orphanage (tear).
9/16: Flying home!!!!

Enjoy, mua!
