Matt visited me in Seoul for a week - it was a great time. Got to know each other and bonded even more (more updates and pictures later on this week).
Now I'm back to my regular routine - up at 7am, breakfast at 7:40am, out of the house by 8am, work from 9am to 6pm (lunch at noon, haha), back home by 7pm, Chinese, web browsing, in bed by midnight .. It always takes me a few days to get back in the full swing after such a fun week.
This morning wasn't easy either. I still felt somewhat empty and wanted to snuggle up with Juni in bed all morning. But mom fixed up some breakfast for me (very unusual) since she knew I was feeling a little down, and I got a nice large cup of coffee on the way to work. Besides its usual job of waking me up, the warm cup of coffee in my hands really comforted me. I suppose it was a perfect reminder of holding hands with someone who loves coffee in the morning.
I also got a few emails this morning that put me at a great start of the day. Billy sent me a link to Staple's new stapler that doesn't use staples which supposedly make it environmentally friendly, saying that it reminded him of me. As I've said to someone before, I love getting such emails that show that someone thought of me when I wasn't around (maybe I secretly crave attention). I finally got the Rubik's cube gift on the facebook as well.
It's been hard to have no close friends around to take a walk, grab a quick dinner, sip wine and get snobby, or laugh over nothing, but the past two months in Seoul have helped me realize how fortunate I am to have friends who still make me feel loved from 6,000 miles away. I have also established closer relationships with my parents that feel more like a friendship. And Juni makes me happy too - Matt can attest how much I love him, haha.
Focusing on good things in life ..

I know exactly what you mean! It always gives me a warm fuzzy feeling thinking that someone was thinking of me, especially someone unexpected.
