Nine Days Left!!!

Good evening World!

So as of tomorrow morning there are officially nine days till Colorado! I'm very excited, nervous, scared, happy, sad, so much that I don't know whether to laugh or cry and when I do I don't know if it's because I'm happy or sad. I'm going to miss so much here in Wisconsin, but I just can't wait to see what the world has in store for me!

Tomorrow my mom and I are going shopping for some supplies for the trip. Right now I'm doing lots of laundry so that I can start packing and decide what I'm taking with me and what I'm putting away in a box and in storage. I move out of my apartment next Wednesday, which means everything has to be done and packed by then. From Wednesday to Saturday I'll be staying at my mom's to help my kitty feel more comfotable about her staying with my mom.

That's about it right now, except for one last thing; I found a quote on a friend of mine's facebook account. I don't know whothe quote is by but I thought it was perfect for Up With People's Cast A 2007...so here it is, have a great night!
