I finished all the shopping that I needed to get done.
I just need to finish laundry and finish packing.
Tomorrow we are going out to lunch/dinner for my early birthday/goodbye.
I am almost ready to go.
4 days, 14 hours
P.S. The Office is the best show on earth.

I have never had a phone with a SIM card. How do they work?

I can't find my iPod cord. I'm going to see if my other one will work or just buy a new one tomorrow.
I leave on Wednesday.
I got the cell phone. I don't know the number. It needs charged. It also might need a new battery.
I'm done with work. Tomorrow is last minute chores day. Saturday/Sunday is early birthday celebration day. Monday night is Jane Austin movie marathon night.
I will try to call all of you this weekend. Leave me your e-mail or addresses if you want presents, pictures or fun happy e-mails.
I love you all.

I haven't been on woohu in months. I read a few pages back in my friend's pages and oh my dear God.. I feel like I've been gone a century, not just from woohu, but from all of your lives. I feel like I'm a million miles away. But I guess I am pretty far. Even a different state would make a difference. But here I am across the ocean, on another continent, in a country many of you know very little about, experiencing things most of you could never know. I am living another life here. Each of you are living another life there, even from each other. You're all friends, you all influence each other, intertwine each other in your lives, but you've all got separate worries, thoughts, problems.. I used to know what was going on. I guess the appropriate phrase is I feel "out of the loop." I'm not upset about it, it just really hit me now. I have friends, family, school here, everything I have in the USA, and my mind is consumed in them. My mind is in Poland and my life here. Coming to woohu right now and reading about all of you with boy/girl problems, school stresses, family frustrations, good parties, great nights out with friends, getting drunk.. your minds are consumed in your lives. Maybe all I'm saying is that life goes on, whether you're there or not. People keep changing, or maybe they keep up to their old habits, but whatever happens, nothing stops. When I get back to the states you guys may have partially forgotten about me. It's understandable. As far as you know, I hardly exist. I'm not around, you don't hear from me, you just simply know that I'm in Poland. And you might read my brief sugar-coated articles in the paper. It's just strange. All of my friends are living their lives and I'm not a part of them anymore. I'm living my life and none of you are a part of it.
It makes me wonder. When I come back, will we still be an ocean a part? Will things go back to being the same? I don't think so. I used to think 10 months wasn't very long, but really it is. We're all growing up. Should I work to read woohu, talk to people on msn, email frequently? Or should I stay focused on my life here that I'll be leaving in five months? But then again, I will never really leave this life. I'm going to be traveling constantly because the friends I've made here are the real ones that I can't fully leave. And when I get back to the states, I'm going to be there for a summer and then it's off to college. The closest there's a chance of me being is a few hours away in Alma, MI. But my hope is to be on the east coast in Boston or New York. I'm not trying to decide if I should stay in touch with all of you or not, because that's rediculous. I will stay in touch with those who I'm meant to, and I will drift with others. It's just life and I'm fine with that. Though it is hard to leave the people you care about so much.
Now I think I'm digressing. I was just struck by the strangeness of reading how all of your lives had progressed and for once not being a part of it, not being the listener or a prominent person in the "group." I feel like someone watching through the window, merely an outsider.
It's different, but it's not bad. I actually think I like it. I like my life and what I'm doing and what I plan to do. It probably will never involve Cedar Springs or even Grand Rapids very much ever again in my life, though. So drop me a line sometime and let me know how your life is and I'll let you know how mine is. It's nice to catch up with the people who used to be so involved in your life.

I can't get enough sleep.
I'm not eating (as much as I usually do).
I am stressed to the max.
Two weeks left.
And my car isn't working.
So as much as I want to spend every waking minute at Nick's, I can't. Stupid car.

I haven't been able to go to bed/fall asleep any earlier than 2/3 am lately. I know it's just stress and things but I'm so tired of it. Literally.
I haven't been really France shell shocked lately. I'm excited but not as much as last semester. It's not noticeable, my excitement. C'est pas évidant, ma joie. My fear, on the other hand, is pretty evident.
I'm going to finish reading this article on Crime Library and then I'm grabbing my Pigeon book and going to bed. I work tomorrow at 9.
Did I mention my car wasn't working? I haven't tried it since Wednesday but it wasn't starting. We're going to test the battery and things before taking it in. I'm working full time until I leave but this lack of a car is killing me. I want to see everyone but I can't drive anywhere.
You guys have to come home once more before I leave. I wish you guys didn't have class so you could see me off.
Okay, now I'm nervous. I'm going to finish reading and stop thinking.
Remember to set and turn on your alarm, Rachel.
I love you all.

I keep thinking that I'm going back to school on the 8th. I go back to work on the 3rd. Hopefully then I'll get the schedule of when I can work during the time after classes start and before I leave.
I made crepes. Sort of. They turned out lame but it was my first time with my new happy crepe maker.
I'm afraid to go to France.
My parents got me luggage as an early birthday present. The thing is huge. I could fit comfortably in it.
So what're we doing for New Year's Eve?
25 days. 17 hours. Don't make me go.

I didn't do very well this semester.
I leave for France in 33 days and 11 hours.
I'm stressed and nervous.
I don't want to leave.
