oh boy!

So finally I'm getting closer to leaving! Nervous, excited, happy, sad, I've had all the emotions running through me like a train! But...Darrell and I have booked a hostel to stay at the first 2 nights we get to London, before we can move into our flats, and I am so relieved! And thanks to Gary checking out the hostel and making sure it would be the best fit for us, we booked! Something like 32 days before I leave and can/cannot wait! How strange it will be to not talk to my family and friends on a daily basis, right now I can't even imagine it. I know I will be in love with being abroad and never once regret it, but it's definitely scary! And not to mention staying in a hostel...weird for Americans, or just me??
