let your mind start a journey through a strange new world*

thus begins december, and i've only a month left to prepare for leaving the country. it seems there is so much to do, and i haven't even begun. [just for the record, for anyone who reads this who intends to give me something for christmas (i know my family reads), it would be great to just get money so that i can get things i need, and to pay for travels and such.] i'm starting to get excited about my trip, though, and maybe a little bit scared? i don't really know what to expect, though i've been given warnings and such, and have been to the uk before. i wonder what it will be like to go to school in a different place. the system is totally different there. i guess we will all find out soon, as i intend to keep you all updated...
