Changing Plans

So, apparently the degree I had apostilled wasn't actually apostilled and the school can't wait for me to take the time to do it (it would be another 3 weeks, easily). That means I'm not going to Korea any time soon after all.

I am not giving up, though! As soon as my paperwork gets back, I'm applying to go abroad again though it may be several months off again. Bah! Time to get back to work (and find a temporary job).

Visa

Just after dinner tonight, I received a long awaited phone call. My visa paperwork arrived in Korea! But….

Visa + Shipping + Travel to PDX = $154. My bank balance = $102

Almost There!

Yesterday in the mail I received my last piece of paperwork needed to get my visa from Korea. I still need to get some passport sized photos tomorrow, but then the bundle of paperwork is off to Korea! 6-10 days to get to my recruiter, a day or two to get the visa confirmation number, and then a week or so to get to Seattle and  back. Then I can leave on this new adventure!

So close!
