Today, I got an email from the Canadian Embassy reminding me that I leave Korea soon and if I were to change my stay, I was to inform them. It was an expected yet unexpected e-mail but at the same time it kind of made me sad. I am leaving for Canada in about a little more than 3 weeks. (Oh just in case you were wondering why the embassy e-mailed me and knew about my time, when I arrived in Korea, I registered with the embassy here just in case something happened.) The things I have to do before I go back are piling up and because of finals and kpop, I have been procrastinating. Not good.
In a way I am excited to go back to Canada, get homemade cooking, have waffles and eggs for breakfast, and everything is in English! Sad thing is, I made all these friends, the convenient public transportation of seoul, the delicious cheap korean food, the kpop, the connections and relationships made here are priceless. However, this always happens whenever I go somewhere. I felt this way before when I was in Japan during my high school exchange.
Right now, I am having some down time from studying and tomorrow I have to do a presentation. Sighs, I need to organize things in my life a bit more and actually focus on getting goals done each day instead of procrastinating and being lazy. Have you had those days?
Except because school is surprisingly easy, but a lot of work, I don't feel like I'm in university but more like I am in high school. I know I will write a more reflective blog post when it gets really close to the time I am leaving but this is a month before blues post that was prompted by the Canadian embassy e-mail. Sighs...
On the bright side, here's a picture from my birthday party. Turns out my roommate arranged for all these people to come. Thank you! *she's also the one behind the camera... as usual... so you can't see her. I think when it gets closer to the time where people start leaving Korea, a group farewell party and picture is needed... yes. Sighs... I hate farewell parties. It's such a paradoxical word isn't it?
Anyways I'll stop procrastinating now and prepare for my presentation tomorrow. ^^/
