Today we fly out to London. We are all so ready to be there. Yesterday we finished our last test and had plenty of time to relax and hang out with friends. I am so blessed to have the friends that I have. They are such a joy in my life and they are a part of why I am the person I am today.
I finally talked to my parents yesterday. I think it was the first time we have talked really since I left. Since Orientation was so busy and hectic I never got a chance to call. We did not talk for long because of course busy me had to go. But I am very thankful for my parents. It is because of them and their encouragement that I can go on this trip.
Last night I got to hang out with my friends for one last night. Josh and Josh drove down from OBU to see me and say goodbye. It was so good to see them. I could not believe that they were actually here but they were! We went to Pops with Josh, Josh, Jennifer, Emmalee, Me and Zach. It was such an amazing night. After pops we sat around and of course the Josh's brought guitars.....and of course Ferguson played Beautiful Mess for me. It was awesome. I have missed them so much. I packed and listened to them sing for a long time. Then they went home and I finally went to bed.
I think I went to sleep around.....2am. I am so tired this morning but I know that I will get rest soon enough. I will go to sleep on the plane and wake up in London. How awesome! This morning our group is going out to Jimmy's Egg to get breakfast before we head out. I don't know if I am ready to say goodbye.
I do however know that I am SOOOOOo excited for Thursday. I don't care what else happens Thursday is going to make the trip magical for me. Yesterday our sponsor surprised everyone...mostly me....and told us that we will be seeing Les Miserables Thursday night. This is my dream! It is in London and it is the 25th Anniversary. Who could ask for more? I know I can't. I can't wait to blog about it.
Well I need to get last minute things done. Let's hope my bag weighs under 50lbs. Thanks for keeping up with the blog.
Auf Wiedersehen!
