So it is currently 3:54am and I am wide awake. I mean wide awake. Like I can't seem to close my eyes for 10 seconds without thinking about how little time I have left here. I'm sure I'm making this whole ordeal seem bigger than it is but I've never been on my own before. I've never traveled on my own nor have I lived in another city without some sort of family. I'm dreading repacking my bag today because I know everything is not going to fit again and I have taken out so many things I really wanted to take with me and STILL there's no room. What the frick, this is ridiculous.
Also my room is barren and it's kind of sad to sleep in here every night. It's weird looking at the things in my room that aren't coming with me and then that thought brings me round to what I am taking and I remember those DARN BAGS that won't fit my things! I wish I could fit my cat in a bag and take him. He must know I'm leaving because he's spending a lot of time in my room meowing and smelling my bags and meowing and repeating. Maybe he's a partial culprit to my insomnia; it's hard to sleep with his restlessness as well.
Love
Aria! I have been thinking about you a lot today - the day before your big travels. I hope that it is a good day for you.
ReplyDeleteI always find that I feel very anxious leading up to trips (hard to sleep...feeling sad about the transition ahead...)and then when the adventure actually begins I feel so much better. I hope this is the case for you as well!
I hope that when you get on that plane tomorrow you have wonderful people sitting beside you, that your train ride feels like a fun experience (even with lots of heavy bags!) and that Erin and Kurtis are there to meet you with smiling faces! What a gift it will be for them to have you there as a housemate!
You are in my heart and thoughts today as I go about my work. I'll be praying for peace.
lots of love to you,
Emily
Thanks Em, that's really great of you!
