The Point of No Return

I have now passed the point of no return. I bought the non-refundable $1000 plane ticket to South Korea. I leave two weeks from today. Mwahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! I think I am excited. But that could just be because I am in Chi-Town!!! woot woot.

Since no one really reads this yet...




Everything was working out swimmingly for my jaunt over to Asia, then we hit this little snag. They wanted me to work in this other program, and it was an amazing opportunity so I said yes. But they wanted me the 30th, so I rearranged everything. Quit my job three days early than I had previously planned. I bought a plane ticket to go visit my parents for a day and a half instead of spending a week with them like I was supposed to. Then about 5 days ago, I got a phone call from Korea asking me if I could come the 23rd instead. And that just wasn't enough time so I told them no, so they told me that I would be going back to my previous position with the company. Meaning I rearranged everything for nothing, but then the lady e-mailed me back and told me to come on the 30th still, so I e-mailed her back and asked if I could come on the 31st instead, that way I could spend the 29th with people who love me. But that was three days ago, and no one has e-mailed me back, and I need to buy a plane ticket. I leave two weeks from Sunday or Monday, and whereas I have everything else I need, I don't have a ticket to fly over there and the tickets aren't getting any cheaper as the time approaches.

Plus I sold my car this week, the Black Rider has been given to another...It is truly a sad thing. I actually cried a little because the car I have had since I was 17 has now been passed on to someone else who won't appreciate it as much as I did. I am also tired, and stressed out, and the one person who I want to care most about the fact that I am leaving doesn't seem to care at all, or at least is too distracted by his own worries (and in his defense he has quite a few) to pay any attention to mine. It's all making me want to pull out my hair. I am not ready to move to Korea yet, but I am ready for all this stress to be over with.
