adventure

So it begins - my next countdown.
I love countdowns. I'm usually counting down to at least three things, including christmas and t.gives (which are 324 and 293 days away, respectively).

My next countdown begins today.
August 1st, 2013 - the day I start my first job.


in seoul.
gulp.


I'm moving to South Korea!
The school is an EXCELLENT fit for me, and a wonderful growing opportunity.
K-12 strings - just me. I run the whole thang.
Super supportive administration, innovative vision, tons of resources, and a community that wants to go for orchestral excellence. Boom. Let's do it.
I cannot wait for this adventure to begin.

Of course, I'm incredibly mixed up about leaving the people that I'm closest to, and, yes, I will seriously miss chipotle and my dad's oreo milkshakes (and all the other comforts I find in food). How could I not be? I have been very fortunate to have strong and beautiful friends, and an incredible family. I love them all, and am very scared and sad to be leaving them for such a long time.

So this is it.
The next chapter in my life.
Written in Korean.
