Last day at the IJM office. It is rather bittersweet. I picked up my dry-cleaning from the sweet Korean lady on the first floor and we said our goodbyes. I went to the first-floor cafeteria (where I eat 2-3 times a week) and most of the staff know my face there too. Koreans always make such good food. I was chatting with the owner, a very smiley and nice Korean man, and told him that it was my last day. He seemed sad to see me go (and it wasn't just that he'd lose my business, I think.) He ended up treating me for my last meal!

It's a little sad that most of the staff are not in the office today. Then again, I don't really like to say goodbye sometimes... it's easier for both parties, in my opinion, if one just slips out quietly. I'm sure I'll be back someday to say hello again.
