It's the night before I leave and I don't know how to feel. I'm anxious and uber-excited, but at the same time it's bittersweet and absolutely crushing to say goodbye to my friends and family. And it's not like, "bye, see ya in a month." It's "bye, see ya in two years." How does one say goodbye for two years? I still haven't quite figured it out... Anyways, I finished all my packing today, hope my luggage is within the weight restrictions. (still kinda up in the air about that.. i guess i'll see when i get to the airport) I think i remembered to do everything but i probably didn't. Tomorrow at noon I have to meet all 67 of my fellow Ghana volunteers in Philly and say bye to the rents for good. Then from there on out it's gonna be a whirlwind of new feelings, new sceneries, and new cultures! I can't wait!
I probably won't be able to post again for two weeks at least, but I'll try to let everyone know how it's going. If you don't hear from me, assume I'm doing well and livin life.
peace.

ReplyDeleteWhere are you??? I've lost my mind. I took a picture of the red sweeper and put it on my fb. Oh, I am also sending your parents a letter. Don't be mad, its not a bad letter. Marvin says hi. BE GOOD! No...wait, be BAD for me, because I cant be BAD for a while. The SB's are no more, and I just want to behave for a while...I'm not sure though how long that will last.
