Foreign and Familiar
It’s been about 2 months since I’ve blogged. I apologize for that. Most of you who read this are on Facebook or Twitter and have probably seen little tidbits of my life anyways, but I guess I’ll just ramble on for the sake of continuity of this blog. I’ve hit the 2 month mark of my contract and I’ve started getting into a pattern at work. I’m still a bit unsure of what the hell I’m doing but I’ve…

First 3 Days
I arrived in Incheon Wednesday evening, and was promptly whisked away to my school, and then my apartment. I only have a 5 minute commute to work by foot, which is awesome. It’s a little shoebox one room, with a little enclosed patio area that has my washing machine and a window to look at my lovely view of the building next door. The area of Incheon that I’m in has a lot of families and schools,…

After so many years of imagining moving and living abroad, it’s finally come to fruition. After so many months of thinking I wouldn’t find a job that I’d be comfortable taking, everything has fallen into place. I drug my feet for so many months on getting my paperwork for my E-2 visa done because I didn’t realize how important that was to have done while job hunting. I had sent off for my FBI…

Posts will be forwarded from wordpress
just to see how that goes. I kind of like the customization on wordpress better than tumblr, so it’ll be interesting to see if I stay with blogging or not w/ wordpress.

Welp, I didn’t even make it past the initial application with EPIK. Now it has me wondering /why/. They don’t give you a reason and that’s very frustrating because it would be helpful to figure out what part of my application they found lax. I’ll just have to figure out something else and work with my recruiter.
Helpful application information
If you’re like me and you overanalyze everything you’re writing in your EPIK application, Korea in my Pocket has written two blog entries regarding the essays and the lesson plan that will give you a clear idea on what the heck you need to be putting in your application.
Made the jump
and applied through Korvia to teach English *hopefully* in the spring. I’m still waiting to hear back and I hope I did everything correctly on the application.
I ALSO FINISHED MY TEFL CERTIFICATE YEEEEeee
Progress
Started working on the forms for my FBI Background Check today. I missed the office hours for the local police department so I’ll have to get my fingerprints done tomorrow. I’m hoping that since the place they do the background checks is only about a 40 minute drive from me that it won’t take as long to get back so I can get the bg check apostilled as soon as I get it. But I realize it’s first come first serve with that type of stuff.
I’m on my 5th phase out of 8 for my TESOL certification, and I’m going to finish that as soon as I catch up on the reading I need to do for this free online course I’m taking on Modern Korea History. I got strangely motivated last night because I was looking at people’s youtube videos and experiences in South Korea, and reminiscing about my own. I’m sick of dreaming about it and I want to make it a reality. So I’m going to steam full speed ahead and do it.
Start of a new adventure
Today I paid for my TEFL Teaching Certification class, and I’m awaiting a reply from the company as I write my last paper for my undergrad (Minus typing this up of course). My goal is to teach English in South Korea via EPIK or GEPIK once I’ve got my 120 hours in. I’m now starting the process as I wrap up this section of my life.
I’ve been in school for most of my life, so going into the real world is a bit scary to me. But I think I’ll be fine.
Taking a trip~
Less than an hour before I leave work and head to Chicago to go see 2PM! This starts my first leg of evil Toll Road driving but the end result is worth it.
Now to just finish writing stuff on my paper...
I decided to remake my travel tumblr under my primary account because it's a pain to log in and out just to post. :)
