goodbyes are hard, see ya laters are better

Greetings! Today is Thursday and I honestly can't believe I leave tomorrow for my trip. There have been months and months of planning, yet I still feel like there is so much to do. My bags are packed (45lbs and 55lbs), and I'm set to go. Hopefully, I didn't leave anything of too much importance. Except for the fact that I can't bring all of you guys that mean so much to me. I wish you all could fit in my bags! I've done so many goodbyes in the last month and some of the hardest one today. Not to mention I still have mom and dad to go. Mom will be a wreck, which also means I will be a wreck. But no worries, I will be back with many stories and experiences to keep with me for a lifetime and share with all of you. Thanks for everyone's thoughts and prayers. They are much needed and very appreciated! I hate goodbyes and even though its only going to be four months, I'd rather just say I'll see everybody when I get back!
