I continued on to spend three days in Tulsa with my Dad and grandparents. It was good to see everyone before I take off for Korea.
For the next two-ish weeks I'll be spending time in Minneapolis with family and friends here. It's ironic that I was able to make it to the city just in time for Battle of the Floors. If you know anything about my friends or 3West in general, you know just how funny that is. I'm looking forward to catching up with my best friends and i couldn't be more ecstatic about meeting my new baby cousin!
If for some reason you haven't heard yet, I'm leaving February 28th to teach English in Gumi, South Korea. I've signed a one year contract, but if given an option, I'll probably renew. This is a great opportunity to represent the Lord in another place as well as pay off student loan debt. I'll be teaching elementary-aged kids and I'm going with friends that i met at North Central so this experience although challenging, should be a good one! I'm ready for this adventure and after hearing so much about Korea and Gumi from other people, I'm very ready to go and live it up for myself.

Lastly, I am very proud to say that i packed and ended up with only TWO suitcases...for MOVING to another country! Packing was the only thing I have been stressed about in this whole trip! I went through clothes probably five times and got rid of stuff...stuff that I like to wear, but just don't have room for! :/ It was a good lesson in realizing what i actually NEED. When I was leaving the Oklahoma airport, my suitcases were 1 pound over and the lady at the desk started to tell me that they needed to be lighter..so, naturally I casually mentioned that I was moving to another country and as we were talking, she just moved my bags one by one to the conveyor belt! Thank you Jesus! The hardest parts are done!
My life has proven to never be dull so hopefully i'll be able to entertain with stories from time to time...
