So it’s the New Year for lunar calendar. My family don’t really celebrate it but it’s a big thing for people in Korea. I believe everyone is off for at least 4 days. All the families get together and they celebrate and just hang out together.
So Jay took this opportunity to introduce me to his family in Korea. He has 2 older sisters and his parents. His sisters are a lot older and married and have 2 children of their own. They were all gathering for the holiday, so he asked his sister to do a face time by using skype.
I got to see all of his family, including his nephews and nieces. Jay’s father said I was pretty. His mother said it was good to finally see my face. I actually talked to her over the phone a few weeks ago, but she sounded pretty cold. But she was pretty warm and happy to see me last night through the skype.
It was a good experience. All this time, I thought Jay had a pretty cold spartan way of family. But after just briefly seeing them in Skype, it wasn’t so bad. I felt the warmth. I’m not sure it’s always like that, but I’m now scared anymore. One day, I will see them all.
Anyway, I’m off today. I had a check up at doctor’s appointment and decided to just chill for the day. I haven’t had the chance to sleep well since last saturday. So I will take a short nap and hang out with Jay after his classes are over. He started school again and this time, he gets off at 8pm. It’s a lot better than 11:30pm that he used to last semester.
