Butterflies in my tummy

It is all coming together. After two months of collecting and waiting for documents, they have all been sent to the Incheon English Village and now I wait some more, go to the Korean Consulate in downtown Chicago, wait one more week, and I have my visa. Presumably, this will all be completed before my February 8 start date. Goodness, that date is suddenly creeping up very quickly. I have, of course, been excited and anxious to leave for Korea but now that the depature date is getting close, nervousness is finally starting to set into my little American tummy. However, its like Mama T always says anytime I have been nervous to start anything- "As soon as you get there, you will have a blast and all the nervousness go away". Though this was not true on my first day of T-ball (I ran off the field screaming...literally, screaming), in almost all other cases, Mama T has been right. Usually, I'm right (as I remind her daily), but in these instances, she has been. So, I'm going to trust LaDonna/Mama T/Wyotch and hope that this does not turn out to be my adult version of T-ball.
