So here I am at 12am the day I'm leaving still packing...Like this is a surprise.
I'm so excited and yet so nervous! But still über excited! As I'm packing things, it's all starting to sink in that I will be in germany on my own for 6 months! This is fan-freeking-tasmic! (yeah I made that word up) I still have so much more to pack; I'm totally going to go over the 50lb no charge. My one suitcase feels like 70lbs or so already. I still have all my other clothes to pack and I don't think they're all going to fit in my one suitcase. How do airlines expect people to pack so lightly? The way I'm packing things, it's like I'll be living there for a few years! Hahah..
I'm taking a break right now. I'm sweaty and stressed. I also can't seem to find a lighter and I really want to smoke. Oh about that. I'm going to quit smoking as soon as I reach Germany. I only have a few more cigarettes left and I will finish those before I leave for the airport. Oh listen to this bullcrap. I leave pittsburgh international airport and arrive in North Carolina, then I fly over to Frankfurt, and then finally Nürnberg. The last time I went to Germany I only had to fly to philly then straight to Munich. What's up with this bullcrap? It's like I'm flying backwards, just to fly forwards again....and you'd think airlines would want to conserve gasoline...
Oh well, I won't be able to update until thursday night or friday! Wish me luck!
Tschuess!!!
