Leaving Tomorrow

So Tomorrow is the "Big Day." My first flight and to Australia at that. I don't really have any feelings right now about it. I kinda feel numb about the situation. I imagine that when i have to say goodbye to my parents and little brother tomorrow i will feel sad and nervous. Getting on the plane will be so scary i just know i'm going to freak out. It's exciting though. I'm always trying to start over in my life, re-do things, get afresh start with people, this is my chance i suppose. I guess that is one thing for me to be nervous about. I am very shy around new people, i've never been outgoing so it's been hard for me to meet people and make friends. I'm gonna try to go into it with a positive attitude and just have fun. I'm sure i'll make plenty of friends. I'm most excited about being able to drink over there lol sad but true. Oh and i'm excited to wear my new clothes, i bought a ton of shorts and skirts to show off these legs cuz they definitely need some sun. i hope im sitting next to someone from my group on the plane that way i have a chance to at least introduce myself to someone. At the meetings we had before we left school, it seemed like everyone knew at least 2 other people there and not just like hey you were in my class but like friends friends. I just don't wanna be the odd girl out you know, i wanna blend in with everyone or at least bond with one person in that group. The cool thing is that we dont all live together, we live in separate dorms so we get to meet different people and arent just hanging with Loyola kids. These next few months should be quite interesting. I can't wait!
