The official countdown is now at twelve days. Less than two weeks. I'm so excited, and I've been running around like crazy trying to finish everything--I'm a major procrastinator, and I can't get anything done unless I wait until the last minute, so I have my hands pretty full now. I'm feeling pretty good though--my mom made me make lists so I won't forget anything, and it's pretty satisfying to mark things off. I'm sure that I'll finish it all in time, but it is all fairly stressful. I will admit, however, that I am a little grateful for the stress because it keeps me distracted from the fact that I'm leaving so soon. I read an article in Newsweek on Wednesday that talked about how stress can be healthy, and I guess this is an example of how stress is helpful. Maybe. I might be pushing it a little.
I'm about ready to start actually packing for my trip. Right now I have a box that I throw things in when I decide to take them, and I will eventually throw them into a suitcase. Speaking of suitcases, my mom's boyfriend lent me this huge suitcase to take, and I'm not so sure about it--the maximum size bag that I can check at the airport is 62 linear inches (height+length+width), and this suitcase is 63. I wonder if they'll really care, because it would be really unfortunate if I drove all the way to Atlanta to fly out and they told me I can't have my suitcase. Hmmm. Dilemma.
Well, I just needed a little distraction from preparations, and I'm going to go back to works. Hopefully next time you hear from me I will be in Deutschland. Hopefully.
