Packing

Today is the day! My plane leaves for England at 10 PM. I pretty much have everything packed. My mother is fantastic, and she has worked wonders with my luggage. She was able to pack everything from clothes to frying pans. We didn't even go over the one check in, 50 pound limit! I have no idea what I would do without her.

For years I have talked about studying abroad. Now that it's finally here, it doesn't feel real. A lot of people have asked me if I am nervous. I can honestly say that I am not feeling anything yet. No nervousness, no fear. I'm very calm and collected. I'm more so shocked at how calm I am. Perhaps I have been freaking out so much in the past few months that I'm over it? I'm not counting on it. I will probably be sitting at the airport calculating an escape plan.

I am going to miss everyone so much. I will miss my family, friends, and dogs. Lola knows something is going on. When I was packing, she cuddled up on top of my clothes.

I will try my best to keep in touch with everyone. Best of luck to all of my Stockton friends with the Spring 2012 semester! Wish me luck?
