Italy

Oh my goodness!
I leave for Italy for this afternoon. In about 12 hours my plane will be taking off and I will be on my way. I love take off- I always get really really excited, when the plane starts taxiing down the runway, and the pressure you feel as it begins its ascent...it's so amazing. And landing! I actually enjoy landing. I wonder if I have a window seat...
Anyway-
I wish I could stick all of you in my suitcase and take you with me! But sadly, I don't have enough suitcases. And to just choose one wouldn't be fair. Sorry.
When I come back I will definitely be posting pictures and excerpts from my travel journal. Who knows, I may even by able to post something over there. ;)
Ciao!

Procrastinating...

I am procrastinating. I seem to have been doing that a lot lately, which is not good because not only is it mid-term week, but I leave for Italy on Sunday. In three days. Now ask me how much packing I have gotten done:
NONE!!!
The good news is, all of my mid-terms are done, I have only one more paper to write, and then an organ lesson and choir concert before I can focus solely on Italy. *sigh*
It will be good to get away, even though it really won't be a "break", considering that I am traveling with school and performing at least one concert every day. I think I will be more tired when I come back than I am now!
Life has been complicated and confusing lately- a bit of a roller coaster to be honest. I feel like I have made irreparable mistakes this week that I may not have made at another time. I wish there were ways to unsay things, but unfortunately there aren't.
I am so tired---
I needed to write an essay tonight, but there is no way I can focus long enough to complete it. I started it....two hours ago. Here is what I have so far:
Mid-Term Essay.
Yeah, I think it's time to go to bed.

This has been the most meaningless blog posting ever, but I wanted to write something before I left.
