bye mzungu

i will be boarding my plane in roughly 20 hours....that is such an odd realization. i am almost gone now. my time is up and i've said 98% of my goodbyes. last ones are my roomie emma, lee, estah, nantale and christine. i am getting picked up at 4:30 am tomorrow morning and heading to the airport. i'm nervous. i haven't felt nervous like this in a long time. this uneasy scary feeling about going home. i am so excited to see my family and james and gwenie and all the other people that will be there waiting with open arms...but part of me is literally terrified to leave all of these things i've come to know and understand as daily life. what an odd trip something like that is. having your life flipped upside down...getting comfortable and having it flipped right side up just a few months later. there is so much to process and so much to sift through. i am not ready for the reverse culture shock that i've been warned about so many times...but here we go. i'm coming home friends....

i'll see you tomorrow.... :0)

love you all. especially you james arthur


Love. Laugh. Look. Live.
