Part One: The Preview.

So my motivation for this blog? Keeping my dear friend in China up to date on what's up seeing as how lj doesn't work out there, and keeping tabs on a new chapter of my life: a whole semester spent the furthest away from home I've been without my family. That being said...

17 hours
until my flight leaves.

I'm heading out to my future school...or at least the one I'll be visiting for a semester. I'm going to get things finalized and get a taste of what it will be like while I'm visiting my best friend and some new friends I met at the basketball tournament between 4 of the Concordias back in January.

I have been on a plane once before: when I was 10. All I remember was that my ears hurt horrendously during the take-off and landing, and my dad and my brother were there. I'm going alone tomorrow. Well, gotta get used to it for the fall. Might as well start now.

I'm nervous for a few aspects of it:
1) A conversation waiting to be had.
2) Sunday's anniversary.
3) Possibly finding out how idealistic I am.

In spite of this, I'm all about taking the risks. After all, "The greater the risk, the greater the reward."
