(Bri's POV)
I was woken by a gentle knock on my bedroom door and in came my mom.
"Bri you need to be up by now, it's 12:00pm already" my mom said while opening the bedroom curtains and windows which allowed bright light into the room. Now I have to wake up even if I don't want to. 

I had a tiring night yesterday, my parents held a family dinner because I'm leaving for South Korea to study. My cousins, aunts and uncles were around till late, I had to pack after they all left so I slept very late.

"Morning mom. Urgh the sunlight is blinding." I grumbled. Making my way out of the bed. I wouldn't have mind sleeping for another two hours but knowing my mom, she'll be at my neck.

"You need to be up, do things at your own pace, have breakfast or lunch rather, because you've slept past midday. I don't want you to do things in a hurry. You can sleep on your flight." My mom said. She loves being organized.

"Alright Ma, I'm up. You can leave, I'll wash up and come down for breakfast." I smiled lazily.

My name is Brianna Jones, people close to me call me Bri. I'm from London and a second year university student. I'm 23 years old. I recently decided to move to South Korea to complete my Bachelors in Global Affairs. The fact that I'm leaving the UK to live in a completely different continent is beyond me. I can't believe I made this decision. I initially applied for a University in Malaysia and then after a few weeks I sent in my application at a University in Korea. I got accepted by the University in Korea first, hence why I will be leaving in a few hours.

I got in the shower and sighed as the warm water hit my skin. In a few minutes I was done having my bathe, I went to my suitcase to grab an oversized Tee.

"I wouldn't wear anything uncomfortable, I'll leave in a few hours anyway". I thought to myself as I ran down the stairs to the kitchen.
I went straight to my dad and hugged him from the back.

"Afternoon Dad". I said as I kissed him on the cheek  and went to hug my mom too.

"Afternoon Sweetheart, did you sleep fine?" My dad ask, looking up from his newspaper.

"Barely, I went to sleep late last night, I'll just sleep on my flight though, it's an 11 hour flight." I said. I walked to the kitchen to grab my breakfast. My mom makes the best toasts and I'm sure going to miss it.

I ate my breakfast, packed the rest of my stuff, and made sure I have all my traveling documents intact. I was on the phone with my friend Tracey the whole time and by the time I was finished, it was 4:30 pm already. My flight is at 6:45pm so I started getting ready to go to the airport. I got forty five minutes to drive to the airport.

I threw on some oversized turtleneck track suit sweater, a pair of biker shorts and some high heel boots.
As I was getting ready to head out the bedroom, I heard my mom yelling out my name.

"Bri, you're going to miss your flight, come on out." She loves to panic.
I hurried out with my hold all bag in my hand. My dad already loaded my luggage in the car.

"What took you so long? I'm worried you'd be late for check-in". My mom complained as soon as I got to the living room.

"Relax Mom, we'll get to the airport just in time. Besides, it's like you're in a hurry for me to leave." I said with a pout.

"I'm going to miss my baby girl, I just don't want you to be late." She said to me, with a hug.

(30 Minutes Later)
We arrived at the airport after a long ride. I hugged my Mom for what felt like 10 minutes. My Dad kissed me on the cheek and I went in straight to Check-in, after that, I waved my parents goodbye and went to the waiting room.
I waited for a little bit and heard a calling to board my flight.

"So this is it, I'm leaving the UK, my Family and friends to study and live in a completely different country that speaks a completely different language." I thought to myself as I boarded and was guided to the first class section of the plane.

Bye United Kingdom, here I come Korea!
