Still At Home

So I leave tomorrow for Chicago, and I still haven't packed. My room is a mess, clothes are all over the house, and my suitcases are still in the basement, untouched. As I sit on the couch watching Julie and Julia, I still have to make copies of my passport and visa, print out multiple handbooks that have been sent to me, and somehow grasp the fact that I am going half way around the world for four months.

People, my mother in particular, have been asking me if I am excited. Honestly it has not even hit me that I will be in India for so long. I think it will hit me on the plane, but I don't think that is the best place to finally realize what I am doing.

The one thing I am excited about is the warm weather. Apparently India is unusually hot right now aka 85 degrees and sunny. Just what I need. It is unusually cold in the Lou, and I hate the cold. That is the one thing I am looking forward to, no Lewisburg winter, and hot weather for four months.

Ok going to try and pack... as soon as I'm done with this movie!
