What do I even write on this thing- well here goes nothing I guess. It is the night before I finally officially leave for London!! WOOHOOOOOO- haha I hope some of you got that reference (ahem, Casey) I am... not surprisingly still awake and stressing over my flights tomorrow. I hope everything runs smoothly and that I have packed everything I need. It is just so crazy to me to think that I will be there in a matter of hours. I have been waiting and thinking about this moment since I first found out I was accepted into my program. Going there is not the big deal, it's the fact that I will be living there for four months that seems sooooo crazy to me. Four months is not a lot of time for me to accomplish everything I want to do, and I want to do everything. I am so excited to meet new people and learn so many new things about the country and myself. I want to go to class and learn about London and the UK. I want to go to museums and see priceless works of art, and be reminded of the rich history. I want to shop in little markets and huge department stores. I want to go to pubs and have a pint with the locals. I want to go to the clubs and see what real London nightlife is like. I want to take the tube all over and go places I didn't know existed. I want to watch a rugby game and actually know what is going on. The list goes on and on and on. I feel so lucky that I actually get to do this. I already miss my family and friends and I haven't even left yet. That is definitely going to be the hardest thing. I know the fact that I can't get a big hug from my mom, or see that notorious smirk from my brother after he does something naughty- will be super hard. But absence only makes the heart grow fonder. So all of you better miss me a whole lot, and I expect tons of hugs and compliments as soon as I return :)
I love you all!!!
