My English DiaryコミュのFlu & Holiday

How's it going everybody?
I couldn't write anything for a while since I've got this really really awful flu.
I've felt really dreadful for a couple of days.
The only time that I feel sad about living abroad is like now,
when I'm under the weather.
There's nobody to look after me...
I miss Korean food, spicy and hot soap and Japanese Sushi as well...oh
but I've got to work at weekends so I had to force myself to eat something that I can take medicines and get out of the bed.
I wanted to call a sick day but my boss wouldn't like it and it hurts my ego, or rather, it doesn't suit my character anyway.
Nobody would believe that this rather big girl is sick :)

Now I got well and I could go for a holiday from tomorrow as planned.
Finally I got 10 days off (a paid holiday!) and I'm going to travel alone like for 10 days.
Although I've travelled by myself before, this is my first time to go somewhere for a long time on my own.
I feel nervous a bit.
But it should be a solitary journey in order to sort out all of my problems and reorganise my life....
Hehe:) you know so called soul-searching journey.
I wish I could be back home safely.
(I have an absolutely rotten sense of direction)

I feel pity for you!
Nobody worried about me practically living in overseas.
Usually, only your parents or sibilings would help you finally... It's the trouble in daily life, especially staying abroad.

Travelling would make you strong.
I like travelling on account of the reasons below;
-can discover new exciting things through different cultures.
-have a chance to talk to someone, who haven't known my chalacter and I haven't had a chance to do in my daily life.
-Through these things, I can always think about my suitable directions, which is inspired me.

As you know, travelling always teaches me something.
Same as your feeling.
Since you say it 'soul-searching journey' I could do 'suitable directions- discovering journy'.(bit mine is a little bit longer..)

Good luck!!

I think it's brave to be in a place that's foreign to home... Is it hard? What's it like? How long did you study the language before you moved? I'm worried about it. I've been thinking about going to Japan, you know, but I don't know if I'll be able to do it :/. I have to finish my uni course first, which will be 1-3 years... I don't know ^^ and then I'll think about it... I want to travel for that 'soul searching' thing too :). I hope it goes well for you. Let us know how it goes :)

みゆきゆみ As you said, it's so exciting to meet new people in a new place.
I wish I could have lots of chance to meet various kinds of people from all over the world through this trip.
I'll go around Northern Britain from tomorrow.
Hope it would be a good journey.

Peter, so you're thinking of going to Japan.
Well, I met many foreigners who're from English-speaking countries in Japan.
They seem to catch Japanese very quickly and manage to live very well.
You'll be alright.
Although sometimes loneliness and depression etc hits you, living abroad is really amazing thing, I think.

I got 7 days off all of the sudden, then, thinking about travelling as Jamie..

I would like to go to Taiwan, however, it's quite hard to get any tickets travelling a long way. No travel agency offers me them.

I'll be lying around the house all days.

I had a great holiday and got back home today.
Although I'm dead tired I can't sleep in this time, it's past 3 in the morning.
I had a great time really.
みゆきゆみ I hope you could go somewhere during your golden holiday.
It's the busiest holiday season isn't it?
Getting a ticket might be hard but it's better than being closeted at home:) you need fresh air!
