Departure Countdown: 19 Days

It wasn't until I wrote the title for this post that I realized I leave in less than 20 days. My departure date is quickly approaching and I could not be happier.

Coming home from college for the summer seems like a blast. Maybe for other people it is. For me it's just boring and disappointing. Everyone is busy. I sleep all day. I watch Netflix all night. Don't get me wrong! It's relaxing. But I wouldn't describe it as exciting.

You know what is exciting? Anywhere but here. I'm looking forward to being in a new place. That concept in and of itself is exciting. Even more exciting is that news that I got my class and residence assignments. I found out yesterday that I will be taking Photographing the City: London and Creative Writing. With the knowledge of what classes I'll be taking and where I will be living, I am finally ready to go. I am now confident that I will not only survive this trip... but maybe even enjoy it. I have been so worried these past few weeks that I will have a terrible time. But suddenly, I am ready. Maybe it is because I am relieved that I got the classes I wanted. Maybe it is because I am so damn bored here in the North Shore. Maybe it is because I am tired. But I think I'm ready.
