Three weeks from tomorrow, I will be getting on a plane for Germany to spend a whole year there as an au pair. I'm SO excited and surprisingly am having no anxiety at all over the whole thing. But who knows how that might change once I get to the Philadelphia airport.
I'm also going to be writing about my experiences once a month for the paper I currently freelance for, which is just as exciting. I was kind of worried that when I told my host family about the writing thing, they'd be sort of uncomfortable with it, but they think it's fantastic! That's just another reassuring reminder for me that God is totally in control of this whole thing and is putting me right where he wants me. I'm also going to have a blog over on blogspot, but I think I'm gonna still keep my lj because I like reading my friendslist.
I haven't started packing yet. I don't even know how I'm packing yet, but I still have time for that. Mostly I've been doing a lot of dancing around the house (perfecting my running man and the Kevin Bacon Footloose dance, among others) and teaching myself to sing and play the piano at the same time (I've always had trouble coordinating those) and getting excited for The Office every Thursday (I'm very sad about missing all of next season). Last week I had my wisdom teeth removed, but I didn't have any swelling or pain at all, so it didn't throw off my groove for my last month at home.
Yeah. It's a good day.
