Whenever I'm getting ready to leave home for a long period, I inevitably go through a phase in which I consider every possible way I could avoid leaving. It's kind of like "pre-homesickness". I'm going through that right now. As eager as I was three days ago to go back to Ellensburg, I'm now struggling to make the most of every day I have left in Shelton. I had my car half-filled with stuff that I wouldn't need to use until I got to Central, but I took it all out tonight. I'm not sure why. I know I'll just have to put it back.

I've been brushing up on French because I haven't had a class in over a year. I'm nervous that I'll go to class and everyone will be speaking only in French and I won't understand a word. I mean, chances are that everyone will be speaking only French, but I want to be able to at least get some idea what is being taught. The good news is that it's all coming back to me really easily so far. I can't really gauge my pronunciation because we don't happen to have any Frenchmen living in the neighborhood at the moment, but I think I'm doing all right.

I stupidly told my brother that we're not telling Keener about the trip, and though I threatened death if he told her, he wouldn't swear to anything. He has her for two classes, and I'm a little afraid.
