T-Minus 13 days....

I know that its been forever since my last post, but things have been really hectic. I received my departure information last week and since then I've had so much anxiety. I know that I've been preparing for this for the past six months, but now its sooooo close! I leave on December 6th. December 6th is quickly approaching and I'm going to be in another country on the other side of the world for an entire year. That is a lot to wrap my head around. I'm constantly writing "to do" lists at all hours of the day. I wake up in the middle of the night and think about more things that I need to take care of, need to pack, or if I'm going to be a good teacher. But I'm so glad to be going through all of this with Alexandra, that way I don't feel crazy. Don't get me wrong, I know I'm going to have the time of my life, but I also know that I'm going to be crazy homesick for a bit.

On another note, I had two going away parties and both were really fun! I'm so grateful to all of you who came out to wish me bon voyage! And for those of you who couldn't make it, I'd like to share a picture of the fun that you missed out on. Enjoy!
