What A Life!!

So as most of you thought I was supposed to leave Wed Aug 26th.... after figuring out the visa thing (it was a minor headache to say the least) I got my passport and visa Tues. just in time to catch my flight. Thank God I thought, what a weight lifted off my sholder... or so I thought untill a couple hours later I realize that my passport is no where to be found. MAJOR PANIC INSUES! Needless to say, passport #1 still lost.

So I freaked out. MAJOR. and thanks to some smart words from a friend I was able to calm down and make a solid plan B which today I executed. The morning started with a passport run to the State Passport people. By 11am I had a passport. ( I know, who knew that you could get one so quick in an "emergency"!) Then crossed town to return to the Korean Consulate where they were so nice, but couldn't believe my bad luck!

I am now at home, finally preparing to peace out for a 1pm flight tomorrow (Friday) to meet up with Beka. According to her messages it looks like they have us up in a hotel for a couple days to make sure that we do not contract the Swine Flu.... (why flu's always make more noise in Asian countries I've yet to find out) and I think we start work either Tues or Wed. Most exciting about flight will definitely be the two hour layover in Tokyo, where I will most definitely be eating some SUSHI!

That's it for now... will update you more when I am in Seoul!
