Here we go!

Tomorrow’s the day. I depart from the Minneapolis airport at 11:10 am. I thought tonight I would be so crazy nervous and excited that I wouldn’t be able to sleep. But for some reason, I’m not feeling much of anything right now. Weird, huh? I feel bad- like I’m doing something wrong. Three days ago I was all but dying of anticipation and honestly didn’t think I could make it another 72 hours. Two days ago I started getting sad and kept putting my arm around my mom while we were shopping (“Paige, why are you being so clingy all of a sudden?”). And yesterday I was so scared out of my mind I was wondering why I signed up for this in the first place. Today…nothing. I think it’s because it doesn’t feel real yet. I keep telling myself, “You’re leaving for SPAIN tomorrow. This is what you’ve been dreaming about for a year!!” but it hasn’t set in yet. I’m guessing that will change tomorrow. ☺

Mucho amor to my family and friends, and, of course, a thousand thanks to Rotary. ¡Hasta luego! (Which rhymes with fuego, as my dad, who knows all of 10 Spanish words, pointed out. I was so proud).

XOXO

Paige
