Leavin' on a Jet Plane...
Welp. I will be leaving Omaha in approximately 4 hours, and leaving the country in about 9. I won't be back until June.
Has it hit me yet?
Nope.
When all of your stuff for 10 months is crammed into two suitcases--the second I have to pay 50 bucks for, I might add--that have to weigh under 50 pounds, you're not even officially signed up for classes, and you don't start packing until the day before you leave it just doesn't seem real. Granted, I feel that even if I was completely prepared and my exiting circumstances were different, I still don't think the fact that I am going to be thousands of miles away from the familiar for a year would sink in. In my mind right now, I'm just taking a little vacation...I'll be back soon.
PS- I'm still trying to figure out everything with this blog. I have the technological competence of a first grader...so bear with me!
