I don't know if this country is going to let me out alive. If it does, I will be on a plane tomorrow morning at eleven a.m., and back home a day and half later. Until then I'll continue to go crazy getting everything ready. This whole ending process is rather anticlimactic, and I hate to say it, but I'm just ready for it to be over. No big ordeals necessary, no massive emotional flourishes. I've said my goodbyes and I've packed my bags. I've eaten my last meal (fried rice, boring), and I've taken my final pictures. So I guess that's it. Study abroad you say? Well it's done.

Endings can be so weird, and so often are anticlematic. i'm sure it will take some time to assimilate this experience into the "you" that you have become. Likely, your time at home will be the sounding board to give meaning to your study abroad. Looking forward to seeing you in your bed, safe at home. Your posting almost had the tune to "leaving on a jet plane" playing softly in the background....oh wait, it's Thailand, maybe it was playing in the background.

so much love! mom
