Tick-Tock

I'll be leaving home next Monday.  First stop, Washington DC.  On Tuesday I'll be flying out in the afternoon and heading to Ukraine where I will begin my service with the Peace Corps. Everyone has been asking me if I am excited. I'm not, but I keep thinking I ought to be. Perhaps because I have been so busy with preparations...?

I've spent the last week (and will this week as well) saying goodbye to people. The only time I choked up was when I said goodbye to my ESL students.  There are two sisters in my class who are dear to my heart.  It was very hard to say goodbye to them. I miss them already.

I packed up most of my clothes today and all of it fit into one suitcase. At first I thought I was taking too much, but after placing everything in the zip-lock packing bags, I found I had a lot more space than I had originally thought. This is a good thing, as I generally have more girly-products than most women, and need a lot of space for them.  I am ecstatic that I will have enough room for some of my favorite art tools/supplies.
