I remember the departure day as it was yesterday. We left for China, Beijing on August 9th. I had so much butterflies in my stomach. I had not gotten any sleep the night before. The whole night I was restless and felt sick. I'm glad I had someone to talk to on the phone that night so I could think of something else. I guess a big reason for my sleepless night was not because I was worried about the trip me and Joraan was going to do together because I was really looking forward to that, but because of all my feelings towards me moving to Korea. I knew that when our trip was over she would go back HOME to Norway, as for me I would have to stay in Korea...all alone. It was, and still is, a scary thought. But I'm sure I have nothing to worry about.
So my mum, dad, little brother and his girlfriend were all going to wave us goodbye at Gardemoen airport. We picked Joraan up at her house 6.30 am and drove off. I managed to get some sleep in the 3 hours long drive to Gardemoen. Thank god for that!
When we arrived the airport I was going to send some of my luggage straight to Korea. I found out that SAS Cargo was actually closed, so I would have to wait till I get a permanent address in Seoul. So my dear parents are going to send it to me later. Anyways, since I did not get any sleep the night before I was a big mess. Tired and sad for leaving all those who I love for such a long period of time, it wouldn't have to be a big thing to make me pour my eyeballs out.. So when I didn't manage to get the backpack to fit me properly the tears started to come.. Cry baby, haha!
I managed to pull myself together, but then when I saw Ingvild and Elvy at the airport the tears started to come again. I was thinking.. "is there a way to turn this water crane off??" I'm really glad that Ingvild and Elvy came to say goodbye and wish us a good trip. Thank you girls! Much love!
Then it was time to check in. Goodbye Norway, for this time!
