5 Hours Till Flight

My flight is on schedule and bags are packed. Now, I just wait till 2:00 p.m. when I can start heading to the airport.

I'm terrified. I'm scared to death. It's so hard saying goodbye and this morning I had the toughest one yet. It wasn't just a goodbye because I'm moving, it was a forever goodbye from someone I really like and care about. I'm emotional enough, and this morning's conversation squeezed my heart so much that I was left breathless.

I'm really nervous. I'm worried that my bags are too heavy, that my temporary lodgings are far away and horrible, that I won't get a place and that I will fail within a couple of weeks of school.

Why did I choose to pull the carpet from underneath my feet. I shook the very foundation I stand on. It was nice standing on firm ground. Now, nothing is certain. All is up in the air.

This is it. No turning back. My decisions are firm and final and I look forward to the next chapter of my life. I survived the last five years of my life, I can do next five.

...Not sure when I'll post again. All depends on having an internet connection.

Thank you to everyone for your warm wishes and positive vibes. Thank you Today's Parent for giving me a very comfortable home and the gift is just amazing. Now, I can truly be a journalist. A lazy one at that :) No more transcribing! The farewell get together was amazing and thank you to everyone for coming out.

Farewell and the next time you'll hear from me, I will be a Vancouver gal :)

Goodbye Toronto.
