On March 26, 2009, I left my life in America and moved to South Korea. I put my worldly possessions into two suitcases and a backpack and got on a plane. On December 8, 2012, I returned not to my hometown of Detroit, but to Silicon Valley, California, where I married an Indian engineer. In 2020, I divorced and moved to southern California. In this blog are my successes, failures, and observations of life in different cultures.

Falling Into Place
Between the time I made the last post and now, I was able to enroll in another class, bringing me to a full-time student load of 12 credits rather than the original 16 I had before that fiasco. I got the problem with my classes showing up on the website fixed, found out what textbooks I need, and ordered them. It is now 8am, I'm done freaking out, and I'm going to do some laundry and take a shower. Not to mention I'm going to take a few deep breaths and try to stop hating my beloved Michigan State University.

i'm reading your blog regularly. what you may be going through (with regards to not loving Korea so much anymore) may be part of the normal cycle of living in a foreign country. then again, you're a pretty unique and complex individual, so it may not be all that relevant. whatever the case may be, hang in there. you definitely have the drive, intelligence and spunk to get through this bump in your road.
ReplyDeleteOh I still love Korea. I just have to finish my bachelor's degree and I can't do that here. And I know it's impossible to be 100% sure that this is the place for me, so being in America again should clear up my thoughts about which country I like better. ^^
ReplyDeleteThanks for your support! I'm definitely not giving up! :)
