It was a dark and stormy night. Kim and I were on an airplane on our way to South Korea. There was a really bad storm happening outside the plane. It was around 1 o'clock we had been flying for about 16 hours now. I and Kim had been sleeping but woke up to the flashing of the lightning outside. I woke up first and took out my earbud and could hear a kid crying because of the storm. I was sitting in a window seat. I looked out the window it was almost dreamy how the lights flashed and the rain fell. I looked over at Kim who was just waking up. She looked around confused for a minute looked out the window, rolled her eyes and pulled out her phone. I took out my phone to see how much longer we had till we landed in Seoul South Korea. We had about an hour left. I got excited and turned to Kim.

I took out one of her ear bubs and said: "We only have an hour left till we land!!"

She looked excitedly at me and said: "Wait really!"

I replied "Yeah! Oh my gosh I'm so excited I can't wait"


We had been planning this trip to South Korea for almost 2 years! We had been saving up for a plane ticket but didn't think we were going to able to afford a plane ticket because they were almost $1,600 until Kim and me were sitting on her bed talking and her parents called us in to their room to tell us that they had bought us tickets to go to South Korea. We almost didn't believe them at first. We only believed them after we saw the tickets. When we finally wrapped our heads around what was going on we were screaming and Kim almost passed out. We were supposed to leave NEXT WEEK!

We ran back upstairs to her room and were freaking out. Her sister Emily came into the room asking what was wrong. We couldn't even talk we were so excited. The next day we started to really think about what all we were going to bring and still could not get over the fact that we were actually going to South Korea. The next week one day before the flight we had to drive to the Atlanta airport so we decided we would stay at a hotel close to the airport that night. So we packed up all our stuff and said our goodbyes and got into her car and started to drive to Atlanta. The whole drive we listened to BTS (A K-pop boy band) When we got to the hotel we got to our room and collapsed on the bed. We finally decided we should go to the restaurant beside the hotel. We went and ate and came back to the hotel. It was 10:00 pm when we got back we decided we should get some sleep since our flight as early in the morning.

In the morning I got woken up by Kim splashing water on my face.

"HEY! What was that for?! I said.

She replied, "I've been trying to wake you up for like 30 minutes you little shit!"

I said, "Well I'm up now I'm up."

We got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast. There wasn't anyone else downstairs except for the people who worked there. We finished eating and went back upstairs to pack up all our stuff to leave. It was around 5:00 am when the tram came by to pick us up. It was a very short ride to the airport maybe only 10 minutes. We dropped off our luggage and went to find our gate. We sat down and made sure our phones were all charged up and we had our ear bubs.

I looked up and looked at Kim and said: "I really hate myself."

She asked "What?"

I replied "I left my headphone adapter. UGH!"

I need a headphone adapter for my phone since I have the iPhone 8. She just laughed at me. We decided to run to one of the little stores in the airport to see if we could find one. We had about 30 minutes till they started boarding people on the plane. We went into one store and they had an adapter. I graded it and went to the counter to pay for it. I never knew how much airports raise the price of things. I got them anyway because I needed to listen to my music on the plane no question about that. On our way back Kim spotted a Starbucks and insisted we go to it. I gave in and we both got a drink and finally made our way back to the gate.

We finally started to board the plane. We sat at the wing and I got the window seat.

I said to Kim "I can't believe we are actually doing this. I mean we are really going to South Korea."

She replied, "Well maybe we will find some hot Asians."

I said "Really. That's the first thing you think."

"Oh don't even act like you didn't think that too."
