Seven Days

I woke up this morning acutely aware that in exactly one week I would wake up and be getting on a plane for Germany. That's really crazy. I have similar countdown moments for vacations, but this is different. I won't be spending two weeks somewhere; I am spending a year in Germany. This is one of those moments when I see God's hand clearly acting in my life and it's thrilling and scary all at once. Seven more days until I begin on a journey that quite possibly could change the course of my life forever. My faith must be bigger than my fears.

Since I leave in seven days, I thought I would give the seven most popular thoughts on my mind. So here they are:

1. I have to look cute for the plane! But wait I want to be comfortable too. But I can't look like a bum meeting my German family for the first time! Ahhhh.
2. There is so much crap for me still to do. But is there really that much for me to do? Or am I just being crazy?! I don't know. Raaaawwwr.
3. Oh my gawsh my room is a mess! I need to deal with the rest of my packing. Like yesterday.
4. I have like no shoes. Why do I have so many freaking flip flops?! I am so a So Cal girl.
5. My Disneyland pass expires on Friday. This is probably the most depressing ever to happen in world history. Eight years of continuous passholding will be finished.
6. How am I going to hang out with everyone I need to hang out with?! I need more time to fit them all in!
7. I am seriously screwed over by suitcase weight limits. There is no way all my stuff is going to fit into two suitcases and a backpack.

Most of all I am just so darn excited! And nervous. This is going to be one heck of an adventure.

P.S. Someone (you know who you are Wisdom) said that I was quite the epic blogger, implying that I write about as much as I talk. Which is a lot. This blog was short so HA ;)
