Day of Lasts

Today was a very hard day.  I went to volunteer this morning for my last day at The International School.  Afterwards, I went to take my Hans Christian Andersen final for my last class of the term.  And finally I drove to work to pick my nanny-kid up from school for the last time.

It was my last day to see the kids at The International School that I have worked with for the past six months.

I have been picking my nanny-kid up from school for the past two years and, though I will still be working through the summer, I won't ever pick her up from school again.

And my next class I take will be in Korea!  I keep saying it, but it hasn't quite sunk in.

Housing Application Tedium

The housing application for my dorms were supposed to open tomorrow.  However, I realized only moments ago that South Korea is a slightly different time zone than Washington state. It is currently 3pm June 10th there (15 hours after the applications opened).  I quickly logged in to get to the SK Global house application and was prepared for a very, very long application.

Department: Exchange Student

Term Applying for: Fall

Room Type: Twin

Done.

I am certainly not complaining.  But what am I supposed to obsess about now?  Perhaps actually starting my fundraising fun-stravaganza.

Making It Official!


It is finally official! I received my admission packet in the mail and was prompted on the Oregon University System website to commit to my official study abroad program.

I drooled over my Yonsei University folder

and committed to go.
I only wish they hadn't used the word "commit".

Now I simply need to get the funds since I am now obligated to pay them.

Time to begin the next adventure: fund raising!
