Without further ado:

Beware! Seriousness Ahead...
After that... um... interesting video I last posted, I thought I would take some time to explain what's going on in a serious manner. *ahem*
My departure date is approaching so fast! At first I thought time would never pass, but now I wish I had a little more time to prepare! Though, I am still very glad that I leave on the 7th. I have been considering getting a t-shirt that says "I am leaving for S. Korea on the 7th of February", since I am asked when I am leaving least 10 times a day. Don't worry, though! It doesn't bother me. It's just funny.
I've been trying to study Korean as much as I can before I leave, but getting vocabulary down has to be the hardest thing ever. I love learning grammar, as weird as that sounds! Korean grammar is so different from English grammar that it's interesting to learn. Vocabulary can be more difficult, as I'm sure many other second-language learners can attest to.
But check out what I got!
They're Korean keyboard stickers! A friend helped me download a Korean typing game children usually use. Let's just say. . . I could use some more practice. ha.
And, here's what I'm missing now and will be missing later!
I had such a wonderful first semester at Tech that I wish I could be in two places at once, Tech and S. Korea. . . I will miss my lovely friends and all the good times we had! And I wish I could be there to spend time with the graduating seniors and international students (with whom I'm trading places with, I guess), because I will definitely miss them next year!
But I am still glad I am going to South Korea, of course! I'm looking forward to the growing God has in store for me, and the challenges he'll give me.
I would definitely appreciate prayer as my flight approaches, that I will pack what I need, that I'll know what I need to know, and that I'll stay safe.
Thanks for reading!
The video of the day is from the The Breeze, one of the rare Korean rock groups that I found. Enjoy!
