Fare thee well, everyone.
Here it is, today,
23 August, and I shan't be going to England for
12 more days. Melanie has begun classes already, and Abby is already all moved in and settled, and Alissa left today, we shall say goodbye to Chan on Friday and
Linds next Monday... And here I don't leave until
two weeks from last Tuesday!! Its just wrong, really. Stuck in Highland Park Teenage Wasteland. Even the
highschool starts before I do.
Oh, well.
I've begun
packing, if you want to call it that. I have
two suitcases with jeans and shirts and things in one of them, and
big boxes all over everywhere because
--joy--I have to empty everything out of my room because my parents are gonna tear it down. Yes, indeed, when I come home from school I will be living in the
guest room, because mine will be under
CONSTRUCTION! On the other hand, at least I don't have to bring as much stuff to college as most of y'all are.
I finish work on the 2nd. I can't wait.
And then I have a
British Airways flight, direct
O'Hare to Heathrow at night on the 4th. I'll be met by a Coach (bus) on the other end. It'll take me (and many, many others) to
Herstmonceux Castle. This followed by a few days of orientation, and classes start on 10 September.
Finally.
