It felt like yesterday I got my mission call, and now today is my last day before being a missionary for a year and a half. I remember my wait being in the triple digits, and now my countdown says "1" ahhhh..
I GET SET APART TONIGHT!!
It's kinda crazy when I actually think about it! So I've been trying to not think about it too hard so I don't have a breakdown and freak out, hahaha.
We spent my last weekend in Georgia visiting my family, and I had so much fun! We went to the beach and went fishing and did other fun stuff. I have so many bug bites on my legs and arms though..it's really gross.
Sooooo be grateful you didn't have to sit and READ a Chinese subtitled movie about Kung Fu for 2 hours like I did last night...against my will! My dad and my brothers forced me to watch it, and I just realized that this horrible awful movie I watched will be the last movie I'll see for a year and a half!!! hahaha worst movie ever. I had no idea what was going on. But we did get sushi before sooo you could say... #IWasBribed
Haha at least it'll make for a funny memory.
I'm not sure how I'm supposed to fit my life and everything I need for 18 months in only 3 suitcases! I'm starting to pack right now, and I don't even know where to start! #IHaveSoMuchCRAP haha story of my life....
