Oh. My. Gosh.
Did I just read that I won a flight to Korea??!!
What the heck?!
After reading the letter for a second time, I squealed and ran to the phone.
"Hello?"
"Giang!! I just won a flight to Korea!!", I told her.
"YOU DID WHAT?!"
"I'M GOING TO KOREA!! FOR 2 MONTHS!!"
"Oh my gosh, that's awesome!! I really envy you!"
"I wish I could take you with me! That would be so awesome."
Even though I was so happy that I won this prize, I couldn't help but feel a bit sad that Giang couldn't come with me. Exploring a foreign country is awesome but exploring it with a friend would have been much more awesome.
"Hey, don't you dare be sad right now!" I heard her chuckle through the phone. "Just have fun for me, too! And we have to chat everyday! Don't forget to take many photos! Oh, and if you meet some idols, don't forget to ask for an autograph for me, too!"
I laughed. "Okay, don't worry, I won't forget you."
"When will you be going?"
"In one week. I have my Certificate of Qualification for University Matriculation and the lectures will start in October, that means I have more than 2 months before entering University. And these 2 months will be spent in Korea!!"
"Yeah! Let's organize a Party for you, everyone has to hear these news!"
"How about Sunday? I'll fly on Monday."
"Sunday's great. Want me to help you organizing everything?"
"Nah, I'm fine but thanks. I have to learn to do everything on my own."
"I see. Well, then we'll see each other on Sunday?"
"Yes."
"Okay, gotta go now. Bye, Thu Ha."
"Bye, Giang!"
Even after talking with Giang, I still couldn't realize it.
I would be spending 2 months in Korea.
You know, I always wanted to visit Korea and now this dream was coming true.
Wow.
"What?!"
"Are you kidding me?"
"For real??"
"That's not a joke, right?"
"Oh my gosh."
I laughed. Their stunned faces were just too hilarious. But hey, I would've been stunned, too.
"No, I'm not joking. I really am going to Seoul for months.", I told them.
"Wow! That's awesome!"
"Aaaaww, I wanna go too!"
"Tua, please buy many goodies for me!"
"Me too!!"
"And me!"
"GUYS, CALM DOWN!"
They went quiet.
"Thank you. Yes, I will be something for everything, so stop shouting."
"When will you be going?"
"Tomorrow."
Their eyes went wide. "Tomorrow already??"
"Yes, tomorrow."
"Why didn't you tell us earlier?"
" wanted to surprise you guys."
"Yeah, and you succeeded."
"Okay, let's start celebrating! Tomorrow, Tua will be going to Seoul for 2 Months. Let's say goodbye to her with this Party!" Giang turned to me. "We all hope that you'll much fun in Seoul! Have a safe flight!"
I really loved my girls. They were all so sweet.
"Thank you, guys."
"Okay, it's time for Party!!"
"Miss, do you want anything to drink?"
"No, thank you. I'm not thirsty right now.", I told the Stewardess.
"If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask me."
"I will."
I was really nervous right now, even though it wasn't my first time on a plane. In less than one day, I would be in Seoul.
I would be able to eat Dukkbokki, visit the Han River, stroll through Gangnam, visit Concerts and go to Music Shows.
In less than one day, my dream would finally come true.
