Predeparture #4

A week from today, I'll be in Ireland. It seems so surreal and insane. There are so many things that I feel I have to do still. Still, I know what I'm doing for dinner up until I leave. I've made a packing list, but packing is so difficult! I have plenty of weight I'm allowed on the airline, but I don't know how I'll fit it all! Let's just say, I'm real happy that space bags exist. 

There are so many people I need to say good bye to (or so long, since "family doesn't say goodbye). Luckily, my home college starts tomorrow, so all of my friends are gathered in one place. It's hard to leave them all for four months. While it would make leaving easier if I didn't have so many people I care about, I'm so grateful to have them all in my life. I know that I'm one lucky girl to be blessed with all of these wonderful people. 

For now, I'm just trying to spend as much time with my cat and dog before I leave. With my sister gone also, it's going to be rough for them! I hope my parents give them extra loving while I'm away!

The next time I update will probably be from the airport, or even Ireland itselfb until then...

Love and Peace!
