There's no place like home?

I don't want to go home. Those words often go through my head lately.
I am going to miss my students (so much), Korea, soju, and learning Korean (although, I must admit I have been lazy with my learning lately). I miss my family and friends, but that's about it. I wish that this little place I'm living (with 10 million other people), was only but minutes away from home rather than on the other side of the planet.
Actually, one of my old students came back today, and I was so happy to see him, sadly though I will only have him for a few more weeks...then my students go into holding (to study for their exams) and that's when I leave...so I won't see them again. :( :( :(
It's heartbreaking. I didn't think I would get so attached to them.
Mark and Jameson (2 of my foreign friends here) are leaving next week! I can't believe it!
In the meantime, last weekend I carved 'pumpkins' with 2 of my Korean friends. They were actually squash because we couldn't find pumpkins, but they still did the trick.
My co-worker also had Mark and I over for lunch at her house. Which was really fun, and delicious! :)
With them leaving that's about 50 percent of my friend circle (perhaps 75 percent)...I'm kidding (kind of). I'm still going to be quite nostalgic these next few weeks...which may come out in my posts. Readers, ye be warned.
