Surprisingly, since my last post, everything has fallen into place quite nicely. My check list before consisted of flight plans, visas, camera, shopping and packing. I've finalized my flight plans (I fly from Reno to Los Angeles, then Los Angeles to Germany, then Germany to Rome!), my visa finally arrived in the mail and is safely packed away, I bought a Canon Powershot SD1400 (it's orange!), went shopping at Target (spent a ridiculous amount on shampoo and make-up), and started... packing... kind of. Either way, I have a few more things I need to get and set up, but more than anything- I'm ready!
"Are you excited to leave?"
Of course I am! I will finally be in the presence of the artwork and masterpieces that I've been researching and dreaming about for the last few years, however, I am also insanely terrified. A part of me knows that once I step off that plane in Rome, I'll be fine. Even though I will of course miss my life, friends, and family while I am gone, I know that I will create those in a new and exciting place! It's a bittersweet step in my life, a necessary step in my life, and a scary step in my life all rolled up in four months! I'm holding my breath and crossing my fingers! Don't get me wrong, when I say I'm excited about leaving-- I am also terrified! When I say that I'm worried about leaving-- I also can't wait. The joys of life, right?!
For the last few days in Reno I will be running errands, going to appointments, spending time at the lake, eating favorite foods (like ranch!!), and spending time with loved ones. If you would like to join, give me a call because come Monday- I will be out of range!
Five more days... I want U-Swirl!
