Is it really almost time?

I should be a professional procrastinator, because though I’m 80-90% packed there are a few things still in the laundry right now, and some stuff I still have to figure out how to cram into my suitcase (no, not really it’s not that bad). So since I have to wait on laundry to finish, I figured I’d post on here.

It’s hard to believe that in a little over 12 hours we have to be at the airport ready to go. Thinking about it as 12 hours makes it seem short since I’m used to working 12 hour shifts… I’m not really sure what to expect from this experience, as this is the first time in a long time that I’ve been out of the United States. The only other time I was outside the United States being while I was in elementary school my family spent almost a week in Canada on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, so I’m not sure if that really should count since we could still see the United States the whole time we were gone.

Regardless, I’m excited and still feel that it’s somewhat surreal that today’s really he day before we leave. It’s so exciting all of the great things we’ll get to do while we’re gone including going to Paris! :)
