Waiting

40 days and counting (my countdown is shorter than most other SAS kids because we're heading to the Bahamas so early)

I feel like I'm in such a weird limbo, like I'm going to be stuck working 7 days a week forever. It feels unreal that in a little over a month I'll be boarding the ship for the first time, my future home for 3 months. But at the same time, I can't even imagine that I won't be headed back to Chapman in the fall. It's scary to think about life going on there without me, and all my friends headed to different destinations around the world.

Don't get me wrong though, I am incredibly excited for this opportunity. Most of the time I am overcome with my excitement and I just can't stop talking or thinking about it, but the nerves sneak in every now and then. I should find out which SAS pre-sale trips I got in about a week. I have to start getting my shopping done and stuff I need to pack together, considering the week before I leave will be spent roadtripping to see Envy on the Coast :D I can't imagine a better way to spend my last week of summer, but it's going to make things a bit hectic.

That's all for now. I know no one is reading this blog yet but it's very cathartic, and when I do send out the blog address everyone will be able to get a glimpse of what was going through my mind in the days leading up to this experience.
