I'm nervous.
This nervousness is also mixed with a lot of excitement and a little bit of sadness, which is almost exactly how I felt before I left for my semester in Mainz. I've been planning this for so long that it doesn't feel real for it to almost be here, for me to leave everything behind so soon. I have spent the past two days packing, so that has helped to make it feel like it's about to happen, but it's also helped to make it feel so far away. As you can tell, I can't really put into words how exactly I feel.
I'm nervous.
That's what it boils down to. My stomach is in knots (also not uncommon, as I have a genetic predisposition to having a generally dismal digestive tract). I guess if you really boil it down to the basics: I'm leaving everything I know behind. My family, my friends, my way of life. It's all going to be so fundamentally different so very soon. The only thing I can control is my reaction to that.
My words are failing me right now.
On that note, I'll see you on the flip side.
