A Ton of Bricks

After months and months of planning, telling people I am going to Russia, and attending my training, you would think that the realization of my trip to Russia in less than a month would have already sunk in. Apparently, it hadn't.

On Wednesday, the realization that I am actually going to Russia hit me like a ton of bricks. I am actually going to Russia for 19 weeks or about 130 days! That's a long time! Oh my goodness gracious! I know I am going to have fun and work hard, but wow! What did I get myself into!?! I'm leaving the comfort of my home to go to Russia in the middle of January! My brother always told me that I was crazy, and I've always agreed with him. However, I must be crazier that either of us knew!

This Christmas is kind of overshadowed with my preparations for my departure. I can't believe that Christmas is just about three days away. Last time I checked, it was Thanksgiving! Where did the month go?

Enjoy the Christmas holiday! Merry Christmas!


27 days left!
