Being in Korea has represented a lot of firsts for me. Its the first time I have been away from America. Its the longest time I have been away from my family and friends. Its the first time where I have been really exposed to a non-native tongue where I can't go somewhere and just understand everything in English. My time in Korea hasn't always been ideal. It isn't by any means an enjoyable job but just like everything in life Finding the positives and maintaining positive and a hopeful nature makes my a big difference in my world.
For the First time I have found True Love as well. Christina has aspired me to become better in all aspects of life. I have reached out more to learn more than I originally thought possible. I have taught better as a result of things she has taught me. I enjoy good scrumptious food, laughter, going places and experiencing Korea with her. I don't think I could have taught here in Korea without her. As a result of her I have thought more about how to be a stronger mindful person uninhibited by bad reflections. In other words, I am trying hard to ignore the animosity and the bizarreness of the situation at Yale.
More importantly, I have learned what it is to truly share with someone. I live alone, I spend a lot of my time by myself. At work I feel like I am talking to myself. I am often as my Foreign friends would also agree with this comment "A Lone and distant Island" or another analogy a Lone Cacti in the middle of an Oasis.
The Oasis is Korea.
Maybe this analogy doesn't really fit or make sense but its just my English: Nicklish or Palmish...or Nipalmish
I am coining phrases
Anyways,
Through everything I can always turn to Christina. Anywhere I go I feel I can count on her and truly rely on her for everything. I have many close friends who know me very well but the bond I have with Christina is infinitely taut and sealed with Love and Affection.
Building a kinship or bond with people has always been important and an integral part of my life. I have always sought to make connections stronger and to lay a better foundation where ever I could.
Its with great pleasure that I have found the best thing in the world, which is an inseparable Link that is immeasurable between Christina and I.
