Legal Alien preparing for the Big Move...

This morning, a Handong University mini-van was provided for foreign professors to go over to the Pohang immigration office. Apparently, with all the illegal teachers that have been booted out (a good number being Canadian!), they are doing a sort of check-up to see if all the foreigners are here legally and if their diplomas and such are legitimate. Surprisingly, it only took a matter of minutes. A filled out form and a quick glance at our Certificate of Alien Registration card was all that was required!
Back to the university to get boxes from the campus convenience store/bookstore. We're supposed to make the move to the new single housing this Saturday. (Those of us who were lucky enough to be on the list that is...) There are12 single units of about 15 pyeongs. We did a "hat draw" for who would move where last Saturday. I really lucked out! I got the bottom floor and a corner pad! Yippee! Our university is so good to us-they will even provide a moving truck with movers to move any boxes we have packed up! So my biggest task is making sure to get everything packed up before Saturday. It's amazing how much stuff one accumulates after more than 5 years!!!
I've packed about 10 boxes so far and have at least double that to go! This has been, in many ways, a kind of "spring cleaning" of stuff in my life. It has also been a great chance to look back at all the incredible things God has done for me in the past 5 years. Well, back to packing!
