Leaving on a jet plane

After these few days of packing and stuff, tomorrow's the departure date. I'm happy to say i'm more or less packed....finally.

This exchange program has been something I've targetted since I got into university and I'm glad I have the opportunity to go for this. Considering the strength of the pound now, it's gonna cost my parents quite a bit too. So let's hope it's gonna be an experience of a lifetime.

It's difficult to describe how i'm feeling now. Looking forward to it, yet knowing that I have to part with my family and friends for 3.5 months. BUT I'm still looking forward to it.
