yikes

With a week or so left in good ol' Grand Haven, MI I am busier than ever..which I thought I couldn't get any busier.
 Starting about a week ago we have been eating at my favorite restaurants, having my favorite dinners every night. So far it has been The Station, Fricanos, mom made tacos at home and tonight is Mongolian bbq:)

I could not be any worse at saying goodbye. I have said goodbye to my sister (in July) that actually went well it was kind of weird because I felt like we acted like we would see each other in about two hours. Last Monday was my last day working at the Grand and for the first time I cried when saying goodbye to oddly enough people I have only known for about a year. The Brinks are a very nice couple who I see every week and get a little worried when they don't walk in the door at 5 pm. We chat every week about what has happened in my life and and about me leaving but I never thought our relationship was one where I would literally start balling. Moral of the story is...I sense that  I will be crying a lot in this next week!

I am very excited yet very nervous...I will tell you it is the weirdest feeling because I want to go but I would be perfectly ok with skipping all the goodbyes and the plane ride :) Did i mention I don't actually have a departure date yet. That is what makes me most nervous because I cant really plan anything because who knows I might already be gone. I am a day/ hour countdown person and well with this I have not been able to.

Well...life isn't to exciting yet but when it is I will be sure to let everyone know.

I am going to visit my host families daughter south of chicago this weekend (she arrives today from Hungary and she will be spending the year in the U.S. I am very excited for that just because its my first glimpse of what the next year of my life is going to be like. My family seems to be amazing and excited to have me so I really am looking forward to leaving.

BYE!:)
