and then there were 4 days......

It’s 1:22 AM….I should be sleeping, but I’m pretty much wired. All I can think about is Texas….it’s pretty much all I can think about whenever I’m not studying or taking care of something else. It’s not really Texas I think about so much as the thought of leaving here….leaving my friends and family, my life. You don’t really realize how much you love your friends and family until you are about to go 1200 miles away from every one of them for awhile!!

It’s hard to believe that in just 4 days I’ll be on my way….taking my luxury 2001 Buick Century on the adventure of its lifetime down to the Lonestar State. I know people leave for co-op and for jobs all the time for 3 or 6 months, or even more…and I feel like it shouldn’t really be a big deal. But it is….I’ve never moved so far away for so long before. It’s not like I’m nervous, God has provided too much for me in Texas to be nervous or to even begin to think He doesn’t have my back…I’m just really anxious and excited to go. I really don’t have any expectations of Texas….I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.

I just wish there was more time. Not a long time, but just like a day between exams and leaving so I could spend one night getting things ready and hanging out with friends. Pretty much, I have a Psych 102 exam from 8-10am Friday morning, my parents are bringing my Buick (on a side note, I really miss my Intrepid, it would have been a great car for Texas in all it’s Purple glory) down at around 10 or 11, we’ll probably pack it up and go get lunch, and then I plan on heading out at noon!! There’s just sooo much to do, and so little time really….but I’m sure it’ll all get done, one way or another.

1:51am, time for bed........
