I've finished playing my last tennis in the US of the year probably...now I need to practice on the red clay. Too bad I threw away my TLC clay court shoes...thanks Randy. Just a heads up, don't eat a ton of Mexican food, play five sets of tennis, then go to Culver's for dessert...just...not so smart...
Here is my agenda for the next few days:
Friday: The grandparents arrive...we will talk about stuff, eat some good food, etc etc.....I'll need to get some last minute essentials, and hopefully I'll be close to being finished packing at least one suitcase. Maybe I'll try to go to bed at a decent time.
Saturday: We will head to the cities...I need to stop at Mall of America to get a coat, some casual shoes, and perhaps some other clothes...go out for one last meal, and hopefully go to bed somewhat early.
Sunday: Early, early, early morning. Way too early. I'll probably have to wake up at some ridiculous time like 3 or 3:30. My flight from Minneapolis to Philadelphia leaves at 6 AM. Not happy....I'll arrive in Philly at 10:28 (move up one hour) on which flight I will probably sleep. The group flight to Frankfurt from PA does not leave until 4:15...gotta love the six hour layovers. I'll have my phone/comp with me so hopefully I won't get too bored... I can meet some of the other study abroad people and hopefully just settle down a bit. The overseas flight is going to be long......I'm really hoping I can sleep a few hours on it, because...
Monday: Happy September. I arrive in Frankfurt at 6:10 in the morning after an 8 hour flight, so my internal clock is going to go bonkers. With my luck, my bags will get lost, but if everything is ok, then I'll meet Herr Riggs and head to my pad.
I'm starting to accept that I'm going a little bit more...it's not that I'm not excited, it just doesn't really feel like I'm going yet...normally I anticipate things so much, but for this...I don't know! Once I get there, I'll know I'm there, if that makes sense :)
Tschüss,
