On my way!!

I love airport WiFi!!! It's the bomb. Sorry, but I think it is WORTH $7.95 for me to log on & update all you lovely, lovely people. I'm on my way. I'm sitting on the floor of JFK Terminal 4 charging my IPod & checking my email. Mom & Dad dropped me off about an hour ago. I am one of those people that LIKES getting to the airport early. At work it seemed like everyone wanted to wait until the very last minute, but I like to not sweat it. I like to go to the bathroom, make sure I've got everything in order, and chill at the gate for awhile. This little ritual of mine has saved me more than once! For example, sudden gate changes, forgetting something, no time for food but the airport has that. You get the picture. I was a wee bit ill on the way here, so it turned out that it was a very good thing I was here early.

The week with Mom & Dad went by FAST. As promised, here are PICTURES. It is so strange to be back there. Yesterday I met my mom's friend Sherry. She did my tarot cards. I am not always a huge believer in the tarot and stuff like that, but this rang true. In fact, it was SUCH a positive reading, that I sincerely hope that it IS true. It promises that things are going to go VERY well. My outcome card was the Page of Pentacles - which was good.

It might be awhile before I resolve the Crim Law grade. I am still a bit freaked out, but am going on the certainty that something must have gone wrong. I tried doing the math every which way to see if there was some way that could have happened and I'm wondering if my SecureExam didn't print 1/2 my exam!!! We'll see. Professor Funk should be able to explain it. But I'm so OCD, I can't help but worry. I have to try to leave this worry here. I can't DO anything about it right now. Nothing but wait and be patient.

I called all my friends again, I miss them already! Leah was trying to get Pooh to "meow" for me. He complied - somewhat. I really miss my bed. I miss knowing where everything IS. But it will be cool because soon I will know where OTHER cool things are. Like the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, and the University of Edinburgh. How cool is THAT. It sees so weird. Like...am I really going? What is it going to feel like to BE there. I've been reading the book "The Art of Travel" and it serves as inspiration and a reminder - wherever you go, you take you with you.

Well - I depart NYC at 5:40 pm EST and arrive in Dublin at 5:10 GMT. Then at 1:20 I'm off to Edinburgh, arriving at 2:20. So weird.

Au revoir mes amis ! Vous tout allez avec moi à mon coeur !
