Well spending the last few days of my adventure in The Dormy Inn Hotel near Suwon Station, enjoying the luxuries! Moving out of the flat was pretty stress free, had packed everything up a few days in advance so all I had to do was lift my bags. My last day of school was very emotional, managed to say goodbye to the kids without any tears, but I didnt have any classes to teach so that made it a little easier. Tears started when I said goodbye to the Principle and Vice Principle, they gave me a big hug and sent me on my way so I got to go home after lunch to get my stuff to the hotel. Sunny gave me a hand to move everything and I later went for dinner with Meijong and her future husband. Unfortunetly I never got a chance to see Eunju in my last few days in Korea but I'm sure we'll keep in contact. On the wednesday I went for a chinese lunch with Sunny and Mrs Park, who gave me a lovely bible and set of korean masks. Really lovely lady, gonna miss her lots. That night, Jo, Liz and I headed to the Olympic Park in Seoul to see Oasis!! What an amazing end to my year! It was a fantastic night that I will never forget. Thursday night I had my last dinner with my korean chingus! We went for Samgyupsal then for a few cold beers in Garten Bier. Got a tad emotional with saying all the goodbyes! Jo gave me the nicest present ever, an album filled with memories of my time in Korea. I was really blown away by how much work was put in to it and ofcourse couldnt stop crying afterwards! Something to cherish forever. My goodbye to Jo, Liz and Anthony was hilarious, we were all blubbering, except anthony ofcourse, Manc lads dont cry! I gave them all one final hug and jumped into the taxi and they all ran alongside the taxi to the end of the road haha!
Annyeonggikaseyo Korea!!!
After a long flight I arrived in Edinburgh met by Mum, Dad, Paul, Michelle and surprise guests Elaine and Gary. A bigger surprise was still to come, as we got outside a man came up to me with my name on his paper "Are you Sharon McArdle??" and was pointing to a big white limousine. Cant remember much between that and gettin in the house!
Nice to be home!!
