Attempting and failing to focus, focus, focus.

I'm going to South America in a day and all I can think about is South Korea?

For those of you who don't know, I am applying to teach English in South Korea for a year. I would (hopefully) leave August 2014 and the application is due in April. Yet, I'm going to be traveling around South America for almost 4 months....including April. So what am I doing? Finishing everything I possibly can before I leave. My week has been a mess of collecting reference letters, getting my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification, writing essays and lesson plans, getting background checks and getting papers notarized.

So while I should be getting excited and focused on my upcoming trip to South America- I'm not. Is the stress of getting everything done early worth it? Absolutely.

Tomorrow is dedicated to getting my Yellow Fever vaccination, making sure I have the correct adapters, and rechecking my backpack.
