So, I finally got my papers from Korea, to take to the Korean consulate, to get my E-2 visa. I was surprised that they accepted this paperwork because I had no visa number. I guess SMOE is granted exceptions because of how many people they are hiring at one time. Anyway, I'll be picking my E-2 visa up in five days. One less thing to worry about.

I'm starting to get excited to get going. I quit my job this week, and now am starting to pack up my apartment. The weather is freakin freezing here this past two to three weeks. It is like -20 C outside.

Last night, me and my best gfriend, went to see the ice sculptures all lit up at night. It was really cool to see, but holy cow, we froze our butts off! I couldn't feel my face or my legs after spending only about thirty minutes outside. I can't wait to get to Seoul, where I know it'll be much warmer than here; albeit way more crowded too.

Yup tomorrow is Valentines Day. I hate days like tomorow. I broke up with my boyfriend right after New Years, and haven't really looked back since. Single people hate V-Day, I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Enjoy my pics of the ice sculptures at night. Happy Valentines Day!
