There are colors and shapes dazzling her eyes

Mmk, so after approximately one month since my last blog update, I felt it appropriate to literally force myself to sit down and write. It's not that I despise blogging, it's just that I've got so much on my plate these days that it's hard for my to keep my bunnies all lined up. And before I get all woe is me, dear readers, let me assure you that all these obligations and must-do's aren't necessarily a bad thing. In fact, there are a lot of positive things going on my life these days.

I like to compare my projects/goals/blah/blah as packages I'm sorting, filling and tying up with pretty satin bows. It seems like the majority of my current projects (which I'll get to in a bit) are in the "place the lid on the box" stage or the "slowly tying the ribbon around the box" stage. Confusing? Sooorry (as my Canadian friends would say).

Let's see, m'dears. Whuddami working on these days? Let's break it down, real easy-peasy.

1.) Vacation
So in T- two weeks (exactly from today's date), David and I will be at Incheon airport in Korea getting ready to embody the jet-setters life. We're heading to Japan-land on July 21st where we'll visit Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and perhaps Hiroshima (if only for a few hours to see the Peace Museum). Then on July 28th we're packing our bags again and heading to Beijing, China. Ultimate purpose: Great Wall. How can you live in Asia for a year and not visit the Great Wall of China? Seriously folks, it would be tragic if my short little legs didn't kick up a little dust on the one of the world's most renowned man-made structures.

I'm devistatingly behind on my background reading for both countries. I should probably sit down these next few evenings and figure things out.

2.) Wedding
Despite the proximity of all other major upcoming events in my life, wedding plans envelope me on a daily basis. I fear I am turning into one of those Bridezillas. At least a mini one. After changing the colors of our reception tablecloths for the third time (and apologizing profusely for my indecisiveness which is totally a Bride's prerogative, right? Right?!), the woman at the rental facility stated that it's okay to be a princess for one day. I pray hope that wasn't a sarcastic comment! :P

But yes, weddings this, weddings that, soaking up my free time. Honestly, though, the planning process is almost 100% a joy. Right now I'm working on the final touches of my wedding attire (purchasing a birdcage veil for the ceremony, looking at possible shoes, considering an outfit change for the after party), food at the reception and miscellaneous details like guest books, fun elements to provide at the reception and wedding programs. 3 months out! :D

4.) Moving back to the States
I can't believe I just typed that. Yes. I'm moving back to the United States in a little over 2 months. I'm honestly shocked that David and I have dwelled in South Korea for nearly 10 months. Time has flown by more quickly than I ever imagined it would. Despite that, I'm ready to see my friends and family. And I'm ready to drive. And I ready to go to the bank and not worry about language barriers. :) Who knows where David and I will venture off to after we return.

Anyway, those are the three main projects in my life right now. I'm also gearing up for the end of the school year (1.5 weeks left), English Camp and the Boryeong Mud Festival - a riot in the mud that will occur this weekend at the beach. Fun times! ^o^

Mmk. I always sign out with pictures and I definitely have a months supply to post. I'll pick and choose. Enjoy!

The next few are from a series of photos I took inside of a cute little clothing boutique around the corner (literally) from my apartment. Lalala

















More photos later. Perhaps it'll be a photo-only update when I see you next.
Cheers, Wendy City.

PS. Sorry for all the typos. I dare not re-read this post.
