"If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there"

Guess what?!?!?!?!?!? I am officially a Peace Corps Trainee!!!!!

The flights to Hotlanta weren't that bad. I accidentally sat in this man's seat on my first flight, and dude you would have thought it was the end of the world or something. But I think my severe exhaustion came across as moronic, so he let it drop and I passed out. Then on my second flight (in one of the tiniest seats ever) I wore my giant winter coat with the hood up and Gurgi tucked in as a pillow. The looks I got were hilair ... I could literally see the confusion. Why is she wearing such a heavy jacket in the middle of summer to Atlanta? Is that a monkey in her hood? ahahahahahahahhahaah, I would have freaked them out more, but I passed out before the plane was even fully loaded.

Then I took a shuttle to the hotel, and dude, what a hotel it is. Its most posh (by my cheepo fresh out of college standings anyway). I am rooming with another volunteer, a girl named Darlene, from Texas. We hit it off right away, she seems most chill. In fact everyone seems most chill, but then again they would have to be to be doing this whole peace corps thing. I can't remember anyones name though, maybe its the lack of sleep O_o ... oh well I have time yet to learn. I can already tell that I'm gonna make some lasting friendships among this group (that is if I can hide my craziness from them all, muahahahahahahaha ^_~)

Also, I learned that I will be staying in Korea for around 20hrs instead of the 3 that I had originally thought!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so super stoaked. I hope that I will be able to see my oppah Sungho and my unni JuRi. EEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Sa Rang Hey my chingus!!!!

I almost missed everyone today. I know that sooner or later all the goodbyes I said and didn't say will truly sink in and then ..... O_o. But, I will deal with that when it comes ... as for now I'm having a wicked good time ^_^. :::happy danccccccccczzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......

I'm sorry I missed your goodbye call!! I had left my phone when I went to target and by the time I got back it was too late. But I'm happy for you that things are going well and I look forward to hearing about your crazy adventures :) Have a blast of a time, see you in 2009 (Of course, I plan to write you letters and have the excuse to buy fun stationary)
