Hellooooooo!
Last night the family had a relatively late night and so everyone (but me) is still sleeping at 8:35 on a Friday morning. This has given me adequate time to do some homework, read some blogs, and think. YAY!
These are some of the things I was thinking:
1. This time last year, I was getting ready to leave Korea in about 10 days time and start my summer adventure in Vietnam, Italy, Greece, Croatia, Monaco, California, OK, and VA. I honestly can't remember how I was feeling at this time last year except for probably overwhelmed and maybe a little disappointed in myself that I didn't give Korea more of a chance. Se la vie, I suppose.
2. I realized last night, that I have found (with help from the rents) a great group of people here in Kuwait. You wanna know how I realized that? I said the WEIRDEST most non-sensical thing and they didn't really judge me too much and I didn't feel embarrassed. That's always a good sign that you've found good people.
3. I feel good. I feel happy. I am happy. It has been a great deal of help having my parents here and helping me with the transition to this completely different world than any other world I've been in and I have to give them most of the credit for that. But, yea, I'm happy. I'm teaching, I'm going to school, and I'm [hopefully] making lasting friendships, while continuing to build older friendships as well.
4. I am grateful. This sort of coincides with #3, but whatever. I'm grateful that I there are still some friends of mine from college and definitely friends of mine from travels that like to keep in touch just as much as I do. I am grateful for the opportunity to experience a new place and grateful for the chance to travel and make my dreams come true!
5. This isn't as serious. A really really really good friend of mine will most likely be teaching in China next year and just so happens to have the month of January and February off. I have the month of February off. This means we will probably end up reunited in a new place :) Also, another new friend of mine that I have grown quite close to will also be in China and will be able to travel, too! I feel so lucky!
That's it. I thought I heard someone stirring, but nope. Nada. Oh well.
Peace, love, & happiness.
