Countdown Has Begun!!

Alright, I am still packing. Nobody should be surprised by this though. I have my two check bags packed. One is sitting at 42lbs and the other 48lbs. I am allowed to have 2 bags that weigh 50lbs each, so right now I still have some stuffing room!! So far today, I have unpacked, and repacked my bags trying to get the weights right. It wasn't easy to get as far as I have. Usually space is one of my main problems, almost more than the weight problem, but now I am having a hard time NOT stuffing socks and rolled up teeshirts into every nook and cranny! My carry on suitcase still isn't packed, but I am starting to feel good and not so anxious about this.

Last night, I had to say goodbye to my niece. She doesn't really understand that I am leaving, but I told her yesterday that she will be able to see me on the computer again. Of course I started bawling and she didn't understand that either and said, "Auntie has owie?" I said no and gave her a kiss and after that she said, "All better?" Sigh. I love that little goober so much and it sucks that I don't even know when I will see her again. But at least I know that I can see her on the webcam and she can sing me the abcs or twinkle twinkle, or one of the songs she makes up as she goes which is usually of course to the tune of the abcs and twinkle twinkle.

In a couple of hours I am going to watch my little brother play baseball. This will be the last high school game I get to watch. I was lucky to be able to see him play a basketball game back in February. Next time I see him, he will be a college student. After the game, I have no idea what's going on. But sometime tonight I will be in the Twin Cities at my friend's house. Since I have such an early flight and I where I live is so far away from the airport, I will say goodbye to my family tonight and my friend will be bringing me to the airport. This will be the first time that my mom hasn't dropped me off at the airport, but I am feeling like that might make the whole goodbye thing a little easier.

Well, I better get this packing thing done. Time to go back to the bottom of the world.

hahhaha this hoe who's posting on your blog shan sounds like someone i know who was dumped by an american and who had sex with almost all the chileans when we went over there... you should know who i am talking about... by the way all shan wants is go to live in the states, but it's me who don't wanna move over there, thats why shes always complaining because she wants to go back but i dont want to ;) so you and your degree can come and suck my D*ck and then lick my ass and dont even expect to get money from me, you hoe, stop pickin on shan, and get a life, a life where you can be worried about yourself instead of somebody elses life, and if you have issues with us, just write me an email, or anything so we can talk face to face, so we can talk your issues and get your head right ;) grow some balls and show yourself, ya que tienes un degree en ingles, deberias ser correcta para tus cosas y estar escondiendose, simplemente muestra inmadurez y una mierda de persona, que probablemente eres, porque se que jamas daras la cara por algun miedo que puedas tenerme a mi o a shannon, ojala en algun punto tu vida se arregle y puedas vivir sin tener que subsistir por medio de mas personas ;) saludos
