What a week!

Woohoo! So I'm going to grad school! I got accepted to NYU a couple of nights ago, so I think I'll start in January. I'm excited! I'd like to make it back here though at some point. My Korean has improved by leaps and bounds and that's what I'm really sad about not being able to continue with. Maybe I'll get a place in Flushing so I can make sure I have to speak Korean at least sometimes...

My boss at school just asked me if I wanted to sign on for next year, the day before I got into school. Aah! I wonder if he'll be upset now that I'm not going to stay...Feeling a little guilty that we're just now setting up a bank account, got my alien registration card, and a cell phone number finally, and I'm out in 2 months.

Been super sick this week too, how come I've lost my voice twice in 3 weeks?

Pictures to come, I promise. I will make sure I go sightseeing this week so I can finish my roll of film so I can finally develop my last pictures from Taipei and some more of Korea. Saw some beautiful palaces downtown the other day, so I think I'll try and make it there.

Went out to celebrate someone's birthday this weekend and so we all dressed up in these "Be the Reds" t-shirts (Korea's soccer team) and it was crazy! There were 11 of us I think, sporting sweatbands and these shirts roaming around the city, pretty much just attracting attention because we're foreigners in soccer shirts. Pictures are on their way...

Found a dirt cheap trip to Japan too, so thinking about going there. Been pretty good about saving money, though now I want to go to Beijing and Japan before I leave, so a decent chunk may go there. Hopefully going to see Wilson in a few weeks, just gotta get last minute travel info together. Can't believe my time here is half over! Now it doesn't seem like I've got that many weekends left at all...aah!

Ok, to work.
