Extra space
I guess it’s crunch time. I have a little over two days left in Wisconsin and it’s finally starting to set in. For me, the whole packing up my life process is coming together in a magical dance. Things are happening, but to be honest I’m not really sure how. Don’t think I’m having other […]
One week goodbyes
I’ve been spending the past week saying goodbye. Goodbye Mary. Goodbye Jane. Will we ever meet again? Yes, we will. I think that’s why it hasn’t really bothered me too much saying goodbye to people. I know I’ll be back and I know when that will be. When people find out how long I’ll be […]

I’ve been spending the past few weeks visiting people that I know I won’t be seeing for a while and getting ready for a going away party to take care of it in a lump sum. This past Monday, I met with a friend who left Tuesday for a semester abroad in Italy. She said […]

Fill me in on what I don’t know
Here’s some food for thought, I leave one month from today. Here’s what’s already been cooking; there’s a bunch of stuff I still have to do. Seriously. I don’t know what most of it is. Some people have been talking about a TEFL test but unless the directions are in my packet and I haven’t […]
