It's like this....

You keep swimming. You don't know where you are going and you don't see land, but you swim. Sometimes you can't breath and your arms move slower. Then in a moment you are back on the surface and you can take in air and it fills you... Completes you. In those few moments, you think, "Yes, I can keep swimming."

Some Things

These last two weeks of eating healthy was hard... I really really like chocolate... haha. It was time for me to do something, because I couldn't even think and it was scaring me. Since last fall I noticed that most days it was like I was in a dream state. First I thought I needed water, then I thought I needed meat. Now... since I gave up my unhealthy snacks... I feel like I'm awake. No more sugar coma for me!

So in the end it has been easier to give up things that aren't good for me. I can focus better on my stupid vocab words and I just feel better :).

Also I'm headed up on my third year here. The first year in Korea I pretty much saw all there was to see in Korea. My second year I shopped. I did visit Taiwan, China, Thailand, and Cambodia. I really always felt like I should see Japan since I'm so freaking close. So I looked at my long weekend in September and said, "Why not?" I looked up tickets and they are cheap! I'm doing this... I'm going to Japan. I'm also going by myself... Yikes!
