Taiwan Bound!!

Last week was a short week because my school had the Friday off, so I only had a four day week and I only taught 3 of the four days. Monday I had my Korean lessons at Inha and then I went to hang out with my friend May who made me some delicious Filipino food. We just caught up and watched a movie. Wednesday I had my Korean lessons again, which I thoroughly enjoy. Thursday I ended up taking a sick day because my head cold was really bothering me and I woke up absolutely exhausted and felt disgusting. It was unfortunate, because I missed the co-teacher trip to a museum and the dinner. Thursday evening I dragged myself out of bed to go to Trivia because my friends were hosting it, but I headed straight home afterward. I spent most of Thursday being lazy and packing for my trip to Taiwan on Friday. Friday I slept in because I had no school, so I did the rest of the packing and waited to hear from Nicole, so we could head to the airport together. Her school didn't let her leave until close to 4:00 p.m. and our flight was at 7:15 p.m. We had to book it to the airport, but because we were business class we didn't have to wait in line at check-in. Security went pretty quickly, but immigration is always the time consumer. We booked it to our gate area because we wanted to enjoy the business lounge before boarding the plane. We managed to hang out for about 45 minutes enjoying the free food and drinks before we had to board.
Me enjoying the delicious food and drinks that the business lounge had to offer.
We made it just in time for final boarding. They had already closed the business class door by the time we boarded...oops! Business class was amazing. We had so much leg room, each seat had their own TV, our seats reclined to beds, practically and the food was delicious.
My meal was chicken, which was really delicious and everything was served on 'real' plates with 'real' cutlery. See, I wasn't kidding about the seasts reclining to beds, so comfy! We have finally arrived safely to Taiwan and are ready to start the journey to our hostel, so we can pass out.
