korea bound...

I've found a job... and signed the contract.... to work in korea...

so after 4 months of doing sweet f**k all in sydney, i've realised that i still haven't had enough of teaching in asia... haha

in mid-february, probably the 17th, im going to my mother-land, Korea, to start work on the 18th... its a one year contract... and this time, i will be taking the offer for a return ticket at the end of each year to come back home....

i think if i came back to sydney once a year while i was in china, i wouldnt have made a drastic decision to pack up and come back at all.... hehe

i know i will settle down and live in sydney after i get married... so i dont want to spend my 20's living here... coz really, compared to asia, sydney is pretty dead... and expensive!

i've been to korea many times... but i've never worked there, or lived there since i came to australia when i was 5.... so i dont know how i will adapt there...

china actually isnt hard to adapt... coz there isnt any particular norm... u just do wat u want to do, and be what u want to be... but in korea... the entire country follows a handful of "trends".... and i dont think i can do that... i cant have the same haircuts as the other koreans... im not going to grow a fringe and colour my hair.... im not going to wear trousers in summer, and im not going to wear scarves and coats in autumn..... hmmmm......

i hope all goes well when im in korea... i feel more nervous about korea than china.... i think i've "china-fied"...
