Ok, Ok, I Know it's Going to be Different

I am fully aware that just because two countries speak the same language doesn't mean there won't be lots of things that make them different. I'm just saying that because I didn't have to learn a foreign language to go to school makes it feel like the place I am going is not that far away, or all that foreign. I think if I were going to China or Germany I would be more concerned about the trip.

Although yes, I am freaking out. This whole packing up my life and moving thing is a little frightening. I have managed to accumulate a lot of stuff and getting rid of it, or feeling like I have gotten rid of it, is hard. I'm almost there and will spend a good chunk of the next week finishing it all off. Otherwise I just need to buy my train ticket, buy up lots of powdered Gatorade, and pack whatever stuff that I feel like taking, and hop on the plane. At which point I will probably still not realize I am moving to Australia. Hopefully that will kick in sometime before I get off the train.

For now not much else, just seeing how much stuff I can manage to do in 10 days. Wish me luck!
