2 days
I have 2 days left at the high school. Mixed emotions- I'm excited, nervous, sad, happy This is going to be my last year in Korea. 4 years is long enough. I am thinking about Mexico or Thailand. I'm also thinking about China- but not so much. We'll see in a year!

Down to one week
Just over one week left at the high school. I got the elementary job I applied and interviewed for. I found on October 13th. I am SO Excited. So relieved. So happy! My stuff is at immigration right now getting the visa transferred and new ARC card. SO SO SO SO much stress off me right now. OOF. I can't wait! Good news- I get to stay in the same neighbourhood! Very happy about that!

Welcome to September
Well September has come in with a bang! Well at least a few typhoons here in Korea and Hurricane Earl on the east coast of Canada.
I am missing both my grandmothers like hell right now. It's weird how emotions work. I mean my Grandmother McGrail has been dead for 22 or 23 years now. A long time and I barely knew here. My Nanny Pritchard has been dead for 7 or 8 years now. I miss Nanny a lot. Every once in awhile they both pop into my head. If Grandma was still alive she'd be like 88 or 89 years old. If Nanny was still alive she'd be 83 or 84. Old old ladies. I wish they could see how life had turned out for their kids and grandkids. I think Nanny would have been the more adventourus of the two and would have traveled to Korea and Nicaragua. Nanny would have loved Nicaragua I think.
Any way enough of that. I'm at work and about to burst into tears.

August almost done
Holy bat crap! August is almost done.
I have a wicked head cold! WICKED BAD! I am currently sitting in my apartment, with kleenex shoved up my nose- trying to alleviate the pressure in my sinuses. I am insanely crabby and I have to work tomorrow. I hope that it clears up a bit by tomorrow so the students don't get a crabby assed teacher~
Still no word on renewing my contract. Trying not to panic nor overreact. Keeping a smile on my face. I like where I work. I like the students. I hope it all turns out well in the end!
