classes over

Hooray, my finals were today and I am done with classwork! I am happy to have some time to do all the other stuff I need to be working on, like finding out how you sign up for the GRE (details, schmeetails ) and that kind of thing, but it was really sad to say goodbye to my teachers today. Likewise, I am thrilled to be heading home soon, but I will be sad to leave all my new friends behind, mostly never to see them again. Last night I actually went downstairs to ask a real Korean person for some help with my language studying, and he was very nice and told me all kinds of good things, and I promptly burst into tears on him. :D It was completely pathetic. I will miss all these wonderful people.

But that is all the post you get for now, because I have postcards to write tonight and I don't know if I'll get done in time to want to write more stories. Mostly I just wanted to post this other person's website to keep you busy:

Rasmus is a guy from Denmark that left early from the program today. We rarely crossed paths socially, but I thought you all might like to see his site here. He is 26 years old and has made a remarkably good start on travelling the world. Take a gander at his picture albums and see where all he's been! I think his government actually pays for most of this, too; I've heard that a lot of the European countries have that arrangement. I am jealous.

excuses, excuses

Ahem.

In case you are wondering if I have fallen off the face of the earth, let me assure you that the typhoons here have not been quite that bad. Mostly I've just been busy, and the rest of the time I've just been tired. I'll try to keep writing posts about my stories after I get home if I don't get them in while I'm here.

Tonight, Andy advises me to post an excuse for my failure to spend time writing. I meant to, but you see it's the last week of classes and the last week of seeing all the international people.

So instead I took part in a hot chocolate and skittles party.
