Stressful

From the beginning, I wanted this blog to be an honest description of my thoughts and feelings..so I promise now to be honest and type to anyone that reads this truthfully how the process of studying abroad feels.

So here we go..

I am beginning to think working, packing for this trip, and moving are finally catching up to me. I'm not sleeping well and today I was scared by 3 people by accident. Can you say nervous? Anxious? Scared? Definitely. I said goodbye to my coworkers today and it made me realize now more than ever how soon this trip is approaching. Countdown is now to 2 days. One day for moving and the next my plane takes off at 11:30am.

I know there are so many people praying for me, I just try to remember that when I feel like I'm embarking on this adventure alone. I called my grandma today because of this sudden nostalgic/anxious feeling that has taken over me. We didn't say goodbye, we just said I'll talk to you soon..which will definitely happen. People are bad at goodbyes, myself included.

I know I'm being dramatic. It's only 2 months right? But for never being in a foreign land with foreign money, people, and language for more than 10 days..it seems like a lot longer.

Here's to new adventures :/
