Ness Independent: A New Hope

Hello and Welcome!

Here you will find updates about me and my progress in whatever venture I am pursuing, random thoughts, experiences, and potentially just outpourings. I also like to talk to myself... except now, you can witness the insanity from the comfort of your own homes!

Today is Day 4 of thesis experimental maddness. I have already completed 8 participants out of 12, and the end is neigh! I think I will forever wake up nights in a cold sweat, hearing the pulse of these auditory alarms and feeling the confines of this research lab control room... but it shall be worth it!

In other news, I have obtained my visa issuance number and am mere steps away from receiving my actual work visa for Korea. This means I will most likely be leaving early next week. It has been both exciting and sad as I consider this move - knowing that I may never see some people again, while thinking of the adventures that lie ahead. I have so many goals planned for my trip that I hardly think I will be able to fit them in a year's time! And thinking about what to do after my year is up: the possibilities are truely endless. What a great time in my life!!

Regardless, I will love and miss my friends and family, the people I see regularly and those I only get to spend precious few moments with. I hope you all know how much I care for you, and that I support you in your lifepaths as well. Please do not hesitate to contact me and to keep in touch - most especially to encourage me to be diligent in staying connected with you!

And tonight: my little brother's 16th birthday!! The adventures just don't stop!
