Back in GA...

So  I arrived today back in the US and I'm already setting goals for myself.  I've given myself 2 whole months to do one of the three:

1.  Get a job
2.  Join the military
3.  teach English abroad

Three is the last option because of Matt's visa (which we are still waiting on).  I'm only giving myself two months so I can push myself to work hard.  Last time I was home I just applied to random jobs, not really following through or pushing my application.  This time I am going to push myself to make something happen. Because I don't want to stay with my parents for to long.

Another thing I am doing is avoiding any negative conversation that has to do with Matt and I.  I found out that a few family members have a problem with how soon we married.  But like a friend said, "if it's a mistake, it's your mistake to make".  I'm not saying our marriage is a mistake.  People who know us can truly understand why we're married.  It's just that I will always defend Matt and our relationship.  I just wish people understood that he's a great guy and we're a great couple.  So it didn't matter if we got married 20 years from now, we'd still be the same couple.

Anyway, I realized today I went from living in a city of 11million to a city of maybe 15,000 in one day.  I really have culture shock being back in the US.  I heard an entire phone conversation with the two words "like and yeah".  In a way I'm glad to be home, because I felt Korea just wasn't for me.  But I am missing Matt quite a lot...I actually cried at the airport in Atlanta when I finally realized I won't be hopping on a bus and going to Seoul to see him this weekend.  But we think this is best, this way I'll get a job and when he comes over he can look for a job and one of us will be working.
