Time To Go!!
Wednesday, August 26, 2009
I leave for Halifax in less then 10 hours. And, as usual, I can't sleep. I have my bags all packed and they are waiting for me downstairs. I managed to fit everything into 2 rolling duffels (both of which weigh under 50 pounds), my travel pack, and my camera bag. Dad is carrying on my regular school backpack for me, but I don't count that because all it has in it are my books for class. I plan on not bringing those bad boys back with me so it will be more for all the wonderful things I am going to purchase in the coming months.
I don't think all of this is going to set in until I am on board and I have checked in. I just keep thinking that I am going to get there and I am not going to have my passport, or the whole thing was a joke and I am not going to get to go and I have to go back to WKU. I know neither of these things are not going to happen, but those thoughts are always in the back of my mind. I just have been working towards this for so long that I don't want to have it taken away.
But on a more positive note, Bobbi-Lee and I are meeting at the airport and then us 2 and Dad are boarding our flight through Toronto to Halifax. Dad rented a car so we will be giving Bobbi-Lee a ride to the Sheraton (where she and Carley are staying) and then we are headed to our hotel. After we check in we have to make a WalMart run (which is 2 miles away) so I can get all the heavy stuff that I didn't pack like Shampoo.
I am beyond ready for this adventure to start and I can't wait to meet everybody. I really want to know who my roommate is. Whoever it is, I am sure they are going to be amazing! So I guess I need to go to sleep since it is almost 2 in the morning and I have to get up in 5 hours.
