8 - 10

There is just one more thing I have left to do.


Pack.


Something that most people have an easy time with. Not I. I get 2 suitcases, of which have to hold 50 lbs, each.

*FREAK OUT*

Now that THAT is over I can focus on the big picture. "What on earth do I bring with me?" Well this I have thought about for quite some time. What clothes I want to take with me, what personal items, so I started to write them all down. I have a LOT of stuff. You don't think about it when it just gets put away nicely in your room, my room is an absolute mess right now, but it you were to take everything that you own and just put it in the middle of your floor. You would be amazed. I am amazed. After work today I thought I would get a head start and pack a suitcase. Well, I got almost all the clothes that I wanted, and 2 pairs of shoes, into 1 suitcase, thank you vacuum bags, and it weighs 50.8 lbs. I haven't even thought about the second suitcase yet. Save that one for later. I still have a week.


Everything happened this week, I finally got my visa back, YUS, and I got my full drivers licence in 1 day, that was an exciting feat. The yesterday I booked my airline ticket after I found out my flat was paid for. I will be 25 mins, by tube, away from my school. That is reasonable, I had to do that through high school. I really don't mind. I probably won't be starting at 6 each morning, so I am quite ALRIGHT with that.

So, now that it is all booked and ready to go, it is starting to feel surreal. I have only been dreaming about this happening for the past 2 years. Now, I am just curious as to where my dreams in London will go...

Everyone says that they will miss me. I will miss everyone a lot more. My life is changing, I am going all alone, and I know literally, like, 3 people that live in the country (I've met 2 of them.)
People change and evolve, it is very exciting. The only thing I ask for, from all that people that will miss me; It is okay if you forget me, because I may loose track of all of you, but keep optimistic about the future.

Positivity is a beautiful thing, and it makes life exciting! You never know what will happen tomorrow, or the day after that. But wonder and optimism make tomorrow worth while.


8 days left with normality
10 days until complete chaos.
