I still can't wrap my head around the fact that I'm leaving.
In a few hours I will be boarding a plane to a place that I had always wished to travel to, and yet never believed I would have the chance to live in for the next two years of my life. And no, I can't quite believe yet that my life is that awesome.
Many, many things are about to change. I will stop seeing some people for a long time (and I will miss them terribly). I will stop living in my (yes, it's mine!) beautiful town that I love. I'll stop eating fabulous tacos. I'll have new friends. I'll have new teachers, new subjects and new learning experiences. I will see new places, hear new voices and share different thoughts. All of which reduces to the fact that my mind will be expanding and I will, most likely, be a roller coaster of emotions in the next few months.
Life is changing. And it feels great.
This trip was my choice. I made the decision to leave and pursue the things I want the most: to travel, write, and never stop learning. And even though it's sad to leave SO MANY beautiful things and people and places behind, it feels great to know that adventure is out there.
I still feel kind of lost concerning how life will be once I'm in India. I have a lot of hopes, but no idea of what will become of me after I'm done with school there too. I don't even know how Christmas will be like for me this year, or where I'll celebrate.
But you know what? It feels great to be lost in the right direction.
