Crunch time

A week from today I will be in Dublin Ireland getting ready to meet up with my other abroad mates and professors. It is crazy how fast time flys and how a countdown can go from 150 days to just 5 in what seems like no time at all. Yesterday my family threw a going away party for me and lots of my family, neighbors and friends came to wish me goodbye. It was so good seeing everybody before I leave and I will miss everybody so much! I have started to get serious about packing and have vacuumed sealed about 1/2 of my clothes which saves a lot of space in my suitcase, however I still have much more to pack!! It seems like every other minute a new thing pops into my head about what I need to pack, bring, or buy yet! I'm having a hard time keeping it all straight! I know I will be just fine though!
