I cannot believe I am leaving for London on Wednesday. That is three days, no, two full days from today. Wow. It just hit me how fast this break has gone by and how quick Wednesday is going to be here. I'm in shock and I think I'm going to stay in shock for a while, until I actually arrive at my place in Oxford and I snap myself out of this trance I'm in, this utter disbelief that I'm going to be at Oxford for an entire six months plus.
Today was a fun day, I went to church then had lunch with Jia and her friend Wayne, then came home continuing my addiction to Friday Night Lights (show on nbc, it keeps me distracted from fussing over trip details). Then later on I had a nice going away/b-day dinner with a group of friends at Johnny Rockets. I sat in Starbucks with my friend Elzara (who is amazingly cool btw) and looked out the window and not even for a second did I think I would be in London in three days. I looked out to 71st Continental and only thought, it's Forest Hills at night and I'm home in New York. But slowly, especially as it nears Tuesday night, it will hit me that I'm leaving everything I know to be "independent," completely dependent on Him and it's going to be tough, but wonderful. All praise to Him.
