It's 2:17 on my last American night. Whoa. It's finally here. It's been a rough day of packing, arguing, shopping, screaming, eating pizza and buffalo chicken tenders, and nervousness. It's barely but surely over and in a few hours I shall embark on my fourth month study abroad trip. It's hard fitting your life into suitcases, but I somehow managed.
I digress
Life and Time are weird. For a few days, I've felt quite apathetic towards everything even my super duper exciting China trip...but as I was showering just a few minutes ago...it hit me. BOOM! Change was a coming and tommorrow was the first day of a completely new and unknown chapter of my life.
Speaking of time, my biological clock is about to get it's shit rocked. The cool thing about Beijing is that is 12 hours ahead of time. China really screws your internal clockwork up....but on the other hand...I'll be living in the future and you all will be living in the past.I'm being literal not metaphorical.
Oh and IA friends let's not get too crazy and read into that too much. America is the past, present, and future. But certainly that is a different dialogue for a different day.
Honestly, I'm a little nervous. I've never flown internationally by myself. I don't plan on getting TAKEN or anything...but I would seriously like to be in Beijing right now instead of the 17 hours of flight I have ahead of me.
I mean Come on Japan...You've got robots that can play the clarinet but we don't have electronic teleportation. It's a shame.
Well my eyes are growing heavy Comrades....Beijing here I come....welll actually Seattle but let's get real....that's just not as cool.
