Let me begin this post with a disclaimer: I don't think that I'm the greatest writer. My thoughts are pretty jumbled (especially right now), and I often struggle to find the right words to use, which may become a bigger problem when I'm constantly switching between two languages. So bear with me on this blog, I'll do my best.
Tomorrow I'm FINALLY leaving for Russia! I'm the last of all of my friends to go abroad and let me tell you, it's terribly lonely when everyone you know is already in class. The only people I've regularly spoken to for the last couple of weeks have been my parents and my boyfriend via skype, and as wonderful as they are, I'm excited to be around a bunch of people my age and getting to actually do things!
As excited as I am, I'm also anxious. I've had so many people tell me what to expect, what I will do and see, how I will feel, and while it's nice to know what you're in for, I have gotten to a point where I'm a little frustrated with all of the advice. I'm just stubborn, I guess. I'm glad I'm going without any people I know, because I figure that that's the only way I'll really learn anything.
There is so much more that I can say right now, but it's probably best that I wait until I actually get there.
