This is my 101st post! And mom says I never update... ;)
This post is a mini update/answering the questions I have been receiving a million times.
Here goes...
I am officially staying in Korea for another year. I signed the contract a ...week, two weeks? ago (I have no sense of time anymore) and will start my new year on April 29th and end it on April 30th, 2014. Or, something along those lines.
I don't know when I will be home. No seriously, I have no idea. And no, I don't know when I'll know.
Also, no one here is concerned about North Korea. No one is stockpiling kimchi and rice. The supermarkets are full. In fact, I haven't heard a single Korean talking about it. Not in over a year. So. Stop worrying please. We all know how the media likes to blow everything out of proportion! :)
That being said, I am also on the list that the embassy contacts in case something ever does happen. This means I'll be the first to know when and where and how to get out of the country. So again, no worries.
And finally, I am soooo much safer here, even if the country is still technically at war, than I was during my years at EMU. ;)
Ok, so now that that mini update is though with answering all of your pressing questions.

Congrats on the new contract! You sound like me, convincing everyone you're safe! :) Still planning on taking a trip to North Africa? If you stop by Egypt after November I can give you a tour of the pyramids AND introduce you to the newest member of the Geib family!! :)
ReplyDelete(And I would ask you to bring several jars of Kimchee!!!!)
