I am not quite sure how you are supposed to feel before you embark on an adventure. I guess this is considered my first, which is why I have no clue. To be completely honest, I really feel indifferent at this point. Traveling to St. Petersburg still seems like some distant event that may or may not actually happen. Up until about a week ago I was really excited about moving to Russia, but I think my nerves are starting to catch up with me... kind of balancing out my emotions.
One thing that does have me a little concerned is all the change that I am going to come face-to-face with in a short period of time. Anyone who knows me will agree that I am a creature of habit. My schedule is so fine tuned that my dogs anticipate my actions. However, I know that given time, I will embrace whatever challenges I come up against. I am standing on the edge of something that I cannot yet begin to see the depth or breadth of. It is inevitable that it will be difficult at first, but I just know that years down the line I will look back on my time abroad and see clearly the extent to which it transformed who I am.
I started on my list today. Got my prescriptions refilled and took two suits in to be tailored. I know... really boring stuff. Haha, it is a really boring list. Yet, it is forward motion. It is finally time to get ready.
