Today is Friday, August 8th and I leave to New York- and then THAILAND- on Monday, August 11th!
I have spent most of the last few days with friends and family. Yes, saying 'Goodbye' to everyone is tough, but I will be back in nine months- it isn't easy to be upset over temporary farewells when I know that I'm about to spend a school year in Thailand.
I have been doing all sorts of 'American' things as well. I have seen a lot of comedies and new movies with my friends, ridden my bike around town, and I even played tennis with my granddad this morning! I've been gleefully gorging myself on all of my favorite American foods that I am quite sure will not be available where I'm moving, and finishing up projects that I have neglected to do. I completed my knitted dish towel, read all the books I was reading, ended all the half-made friendship bracelets hanging on my dresser, and cleared out all the remaining dead plants from my spring garden and planted a winter garden for my mom.
Now I need to focus on packing- which is another story entirely.....
