Things are becoming a little too real

So a list of cities to work in came today... this is the first step of the final steps I have left in my Korean departure. I was given 4 cities to chose from... and well... 2 of them are in Seoul... and since I have made some contacts in Seoul... and well Seoul is somewhat like Toronto... chose to accept contracts from those two cities.... contracts should be coming in this evening.
All that is left is to read them over... decide which is best for me... and then start the visa process. They say that from start to finish the visa process is 3 weeks... so it looks like my May 1st departure date... is holding.
I am done at Crawford at 9am on April 25 (30days) and then I have the week off to say my goodbyes and finish last minute things. I may go home though in that week... some part of me just wants to disappear without the whole hoopla... cause well... I have come to make a couple of really great friendships these past years... and well... water works are definetly foreseen.
I doubt though that Glenna would let me run off without a final night out... lol... I am actually looking forward to that... though I will probably NEVER have another roommate again (I swear when/if I ever get married... my husband is going to be getting his own apartment).... I am grateful for the year that I have had here... it has been a learning and growing experience... emotionally and spiritually.... see I told you that the water works were inevitable... lol...
Anyways... I am just waiting for the contracts to arrive tonight.. and I am going to be spending the weekend looking them over and doing a lot of thinking. Thanks to a couple of people in Korea, I know what to look for in a contract... and what to avoid... I foresee this being a good experience.
On a lighter note... I am learning how to cook.. I have recently mastered Chicken stir fry with Sweet and Sour sauce... and Pork Chops with apple sauce. Truthfully, cooking isn't as scary as I had made it out to be... it just takes some imagination... and well patience. Though I am going to miss my Swiss Chalet (though they never seemed to fully cook the chicken properly)... I strongly feel that I will be able to cook some things while I am overseas.... and if all else fails... they do have food joints that deliver in Korea as well... lol.
Anyways... that is all on the Korea update field.
