The End

PICTURES on Marina's blog (the turtle chasing one :D)

Flying back to the States in a few days. I'm anxious. Not sure why. Haven't really stopped to think why.

Starting a new life perhaps? Stepping back into reality? Having to be an adult again?

Korea has been fun (obviously seen from the lack of posts)! I've seen and done lots. Of everything though, I've really enjoyed getting to know my relatives. They're the part of my parents that I didn't see or understand before. In getting to know them, I'm unexpectedly getting to know my parents a little better.

But, let's be honest. Gloria LOVES food. Korea has EXCEDED my expectation. The most delicious food I've had came not from restaurants, but my aunt's very own kitchen. I could seriously live off her kimchi jigae (kimchi stew) and rice forever. While it's a simple dish, no two kimchi jigaes taste alike. My aunt's cooking makes a glutton out of me...more so than before :P

Alas, my ticket for Wednesday reminds me that my extended vacation is coming to an end. America, America. Here I come, whether I'm ready or not.
