Let's Do This Shit

The last of the fair well parties behind me and my flight booked the possibility of sleep has diminished significantly. I fly out Thursday night and arrive in Seoul Saturday morning. My flight to Korea is direct but I need to take a domestic flight to the airport in Gwangju. My total trip time will take 23 hours. The best 23 hours of my life! Ha! I am trying to estimate how much my flight is costing and I think it is in the $1200 dollar range. I fly with Korean Air and thankfully they'll only charge me an extra $60 dollars for my overweight luggage. I get dinner and breakfast and free booze, well at least that is what I have been told. I have been spoiled and received 4 books as gifts as well as my iPod touch. These will keep me busy enough to pass the time along with my laptop and 6 on flight movies!
Packing almost everything I own into two suitcases was a little depressing. It is also nerve wrecking! What if- god forbid, something goes missing. One misplaced suitcase is half of my life. Another heartache is having to take this domestic flight solo. First time in korea, in an airport unfamiliar to me I have to navigate my way to domestic flights and try and find the flight to Gwangju. This should be interesting. I transferred over a hefty sum of Canadian into Korean so hopefully I will be more than set in the bills and misc. cost department. I am still so blown away by all the love and support I have gotten and cannot believe I am out of the country before the weekend arrives. How am I going to sleep now until Thursday?? Craziness!
Well the next time I'll be updating will be from Korea. So amazing to finally be here.
Let's pray for a turbulence free flight.
EFF YESSSSS!!
