Count-down to Take-off

so this is the first, of what i hope is a pretty regular posting habit.

i feel pretty silly, but really, i want to share my experience over there and its really hard to let EVERYONE know whats going on. [ain't i lucky to have SO many friends!]

rest assured there will still be personal e-mails, but this will cut down i hope on repetition... i hope.

really feel it, but Now that prologue is done, you may be asking yourselves why i am writing before i have taken the plunge. well, honestly, its because i am scared. quite scared, to the point where i don'tI'm doing something so huge, i must be scared. right?

i am really lucky, my parents are wonderful and supporting me, but it doesn't help my doubts. it seems silly to harp on it, but i have created this life here, which is fabulous, so why should i leave? but the answer is obvious to me at the same time, the reason i have been so lucky is so that when i come back, i have something and many people to come back to. now the knowledge of all that still doesn't make it any easier.

on the other hand, i am psyched. really very excited. it is so big and so incredible that i have this opportunity.

wow this writing certainly does help, i feel oddly at peace now. in a happy state of excitement, but not so much that my heart beats too fast.

for now, i am content with preparation and visiting friends in new places.

it's not only the picture that's honest! This old person is glad to be able to receive blog news, even before blast off.

P.S. I keep forgetting to tell you how beautiful you look these days.
