Well, first off, Happy New Year's Eve. Only a few hours here until New Year's! In Korea, all the people are turning a year older tonight because of their year systems, etc. Sooo I'll be 23 tonight I guess...
So a few days ago I was excited about Beijing. As it seems to be just my luck, things are not going right. Greg, Liz, and I went yesterday to turn in our visa application and have to pick it up next week. We're supposed to leave Feb. 2 really early in the morning and come back Sunday... but as seems to be a pattern at our branch when deciding days off for holidays, they told us today we now have to come in Feb 2 from 10-4, when previously we were told we will have the whole day off. So now we're up a creek with few options other than costing way more money. We can either cancel the trip and be forced to pay for canceling, or try to see if there's a way at all to push back the flight.
They could rearrange schedules a bit to combine classes and all that, but our branch manager doesn't want to do that because he thinks lots of kids are going to come that day and there'll be too many... but really, it's probably unlikely, however he doesn't want to risk it. He was joking we'd be fired, buttttt based on the past week I don't think he was joking. And since it's a holiday, the airline was not open this afternoon, or probably this weekend, so we'll have to get it situated Monday or later, risking more wasted money. Ahhhh. Please pray we can find some kind of solution, quickly and cheaply. *sigh*
