Well folks... I have arrived! Yikes! LOL Quite the culture shock... not as bad as for others, since i am a foreigner myself and I've traveled a lot... but still. I can't understand a damn thing all these stick figures say, LOL

I'm back to being one of the biggest people... DAMN! All this hard work, only to be the biggest again. Oh well... the food is pretty healthy, though the first night I lived off of Coke and chocolate because I wasn't sure where I was, what time it was or who I was...haha.

This is my first official day. I had some soup with noodles and chicken. I was starving. My band tightened up on the plane (which was a first for me with all my travels)... but I think it's because I realized I was going to be living in South Korea and got really anxious about it.

Anyway, I will be stuck to the internet like glue once I get my apartment.. for the support I need. For now I am staying at a hotel for about a week and found an internet cafe to post from.

Gee, Elena, you probably wouldn't have even done this before!  It's such a great experience.  Sounds like your soup today was just the thing - hope it was.  I'm so glad you'll be keeping in touch.
