11 Days

There are 11 days left and I am beginning to freak out. I knew this time would come eventually. I don't think I ever actually processed that I am going to Paris for 3 whole weeks. That is legitimately insane. To make my freak out a little more organized, here is a list of all of the things that I am worried about

1. What if I don't make any friends?
2. What if I get lost?
3. What if I fail my classes?
4. What if my roommates are terrible?
5. What if I forget something important at home?
6. What if all of my money gets stolen?
7. What if the airline loses my bag?
8. What if I get really homesick?
9. What if I get sick?
10. What if the program forgot about me and I have no where to go?
11. What if my friends forget about me?
12. What if the plane crashes?
13. What if there's a terrorist attack?
14. What if I get kidnapped like Taken except my dad isn't a major boss and can't come save me?
15. What if I die?

I know that they get more ridiculous as the list goes on but isn't that what always happens when you have a panic attack?

It's a good thing that I don't have school anymore because I am going to be spending the next 11 days on travel websites making sure I have everything ready for my trip. Well I'm off to start that now! Hopefully I don't have a heart attack before I go about it...

P.S. I packed my new suitcase to see how much it fits and it fits even more than my last one. Woohoo!

22 Days

Jeez not long until Paris! Only 22 more days!

I almost have everything done that I have to have finished before Paris. Except school of course. But I have a new suitcase, I updated my passport, I found out about using my phone internationally, I am almost done with my summer work that is due while I'm there (ridiculous, I know), I have saved up some money, I'm in the process of getting an ATM card for over there, and I have gotten my new-old camera! The only thing left to do is some shopping. Here's a list of the few things I would like to buy before I go to Paris.

1. Ballet Flats
2. Leather Belt
3. Simple White or Black Shirts
4. Simple Black Heels
5. More High-Wasted Shorts

I know I will be fine in Paris without these things, but I feel like they would be a good addition to my wardrobe over there.

Is there anything I'm forgetting to do?

27 Days

I have been going into New York City a lot lately, and it is getting me so excited for Paris. I just love the city atmosphere! And I found that I could fit in there pretty well, so I'm hoping I will be able to do the same in Paris. This morning I heard some people talking in French about how much they loved the city. And, I heard that on my way to get a delicious banana-nutella crepe. It was great!

Today I received another packet from Summer Study! It included stuff about my plane, my itinerary, and a whole bunch of stuff about the rules. Nothing is too strict, and I'm not usually a rebel, so I am perfectly fine with all of it! This is going to be so great!

For my birthday a few days ago I got a new suitcase and I am so happy! Although I loved my old one, it was ugly and was falling apart. But it held a ton of stuff so I'm hoping that this new one will fit just as much. It better... I need all of the space I can get!

I can't believe that there is less than a month until I leave! The next two weeks will be horrible because of school, but after that I'm done. I can't wait to be out of school and in Paris!!!
