    So glad to have found you the other day! I was about to DM you on IG but figured I should comment here first to show support and build rapport before sliding into the DMs.😹 This video came at just the right time! I graduate next year spring with my BA and want to work at a Hagwon. I’m also trying to plan my apartment lease to end at the perfect time in order to move there. Wasn’t sure if I should end it in July or August. I see you said you moved in July, was that because of summer camp? When does the actual school semester start in the fall? I want to ask the school to let me get settled in for a bit with my cat instead of jumping right into things. I refuse to go to work the very next day after landing. That’s just crazy! I’ll be 35 going in 36 then so I need a little bit of time to adjust. Especially with jet lag!😅 I don’t think I heard you talk about the flight reimbursement. I’ve heard schools wait a year to give you your flight money, that they no longer pay you in advanced. What’s the tea about that?<br>Did you hide your septum while on the clock or kept it out? I have one too.<br>If you don’t get your ARC and bank card until a couple months, how are you able to pay bills, grocery shop, order things online and such? Credit cards? I heard you say you can order takeout after you get your ARC, so that means one has to go to the actual store/restaurant to buy it in person? What about Coupang? I always hear people say they buy groceries or order takeout from there. So I can’t do that until I get the ARC? As you can tell, I’m trying to not starve when I land.😹 Also want to make sure I’m able to buy my cat‘s food + necessities. <br>I’m Puerto Rican by the way, so it feels relatable AF &nbsp;watching your content and hearing your experiences as a fellow Afro-Latina and Caribbean person! ❤️‍🔥 Thanks so much in advanced!! 🤗

    I just want to say thank you. I&apos;ve been reading through your comment section, and the way you take time to respond to everyone is honestly superhero-level. It’s rare to see someone so generous with their knowledge and energy — it really doesn’t go unnoticed. You’re making a bigger impact than you know!

    I graduate with my BA in October and have been weighing the pros and cons of studying vs. teaching in Korea. Your video was very insightful. Will be subscribing and watching more content. Thank you!
