Departure Countdown: 46 Days

I started this blog 46 days early for two reasons:


1) I need to organize my thoughts.
2) People are getting sick of me constantly talking about Europe. 

Just like how I know I will inevitably be a cat lady, I know that I will be the girl that comes back from studying abroad and talks about nothing but what it was like in Europe. I don't care. Down with the haters. I'M GOING TO EUROPE! Everyday that I am closer to leaving, it hits me a little more. Unfortunately, that is accompanied by fear and anxiety. I have been coping by taking to Pinterest. I keep finding inspiring quotes and style ideas that take the edge off of the fear that I will get there and immediately want to go home.

On Saturday, all of the study abroad students had to go to a mandatory meeting. While most of the information was commonsensical and dull, the meeting started off with a quote that really got to me.




Take a minute to wrap your head around that... 


Woah. Can I get an amen? Can I get a hell yeah? Amen and hell-to-the-yeah. Seeing as how I am not at all comfortable flying alone, being in foreign countries, traveling alone, not having friends, and doing pretty much anything... I guess this is where my life begins.
