And Then There Were None

And in a blink of an eye my suitcase went from 0 lbs to 37 lbs to 49 lbs.

I JUST finished putting up everything on my board too!

I'm leaving tomorrow.

5:45 AM: Get my sorry butt out of bed
6:30 AM: Turn in keys to the porter
7:00 AM: Meet Caitlin to grab a taxi and head to the station
7:38 AM: Train to London Euston
10:12 AM: Arrive in London
15:25 PM: Plane to Chicago
18:41 PM: Arrive in America!
9:49 PM: Plane from Chicago to Columbus, Ohio
23:57 PM: Arrive home

Basically, tomorrow is going to be hell.  It'll be worth it though.

Today was my last trip into town.  I was not a fan of the Christmas rush in the least.  I also turned in my final paper today.  You know, I thought that if I wrote a paper about Sense and Sensibility, I'd like it more.  It turns out, that isn't true.

I still can't fathom the idea of leaving England behind tomorrow.  All of my friends are going through the same denial-process too.  Both Lydia and Kate leave very soon.  I feel like just yesterday I was sweating bullets, tossing steaming mulch on the campus grounds, then stir-crazy at home for two months, then just arriving at oddly sunny London, sick as a dog.

I have to say, I'm so excited to be back in farmland Ohio, potentially the least exciting of our states, only beating out the Dakotas and Wyoming.  And I'm thrilled to go back to The College of Wooster next semester.  Junior IS will be wonderful.  I miss working hard, thinking, learning, and being challenged.  Also, I am so so so excited to live with Kate in a small, danky, disgusting little room meant for Freshmen (that is, if ResLife is nice to us and puts us together).  I can't wait to hear about all of my friends' travels.  It will be fantastic.

So, how can I be sad to leave when I have SO much to look forward to? : )

I hope everyone has enjoyed following the blog!  Thanks for keeping up with me!

Cheers!
