the countdown
We have something crazy like 25 days left until this contract is over. 25 more days and I get to leave Korea and return to the US, that magical place where they have things like avocados and soft beds. I am so excited. I'll get to see Jon, my sister, my mom and dad, my kitties. I'll get to see my nephew who could barely focus his eyes when I left and is now rolling over by himself and laughing. I can't wait. I've missed them so much I can't even begin to describe it. I think these last days are going to be the hardest because the end is in sight and we all want to go home so badly.
I've definitely had a blast on this contract. Yes, there have been the usual up and downs but overall its been a good experience and living in Korea has been fun. This is not like Maui however, I'm not going to be heartbroken about leaving Yeosu. What will be the hardest part will be leaving the awesome cast. There are definitely some people I will be happy to say goodbye to but there are also a lot of people it will be really hard to part with. Even though I know it is not a real goodbye but a circus goodbye it will still be hard. The real goodbyes will be for the people I met at the Expo who I will probably never see again, the people from the international pavilions, the Korean crew at Samsung. The circus goodbyes are for the cast. The circus goodbye is saying goodbye knowing, because the circus world is so small, you will see each other again. It might be when you both happen to be training in Montreal at the same time or in a year when you are in another show together but you know you will meet up again. It makes saying goodbye to the people you have come to love a lot easier.
