There's less than a week before school starts, and I'm starting to feel like a chicken with it's head cut off, scrambling around yet somehow not actually doing any of the things I need to do. For those who don't know (um, nobody, let's face it), my corner of the world is in Berkeley, CA and we start school on Thursday. Thursday! How did this happen?! What happened the remaining few days of summer?! I have part 2 of a leadership retreat tomorrow, immediately after which I have to rush off to the airport, because I am going home for three days and flying back at the last possible minute in time for class.
Still, I am sure that this is still much less stress than Michelle felt before leaving for Sweden. I remember when I was getting ready to go to Mexico last summer, I felt completely scattered and so sure that I was going to forget something insanely important (like my passport), and I was going somewhere relatively close and only for three months!
Well, Michelle has already left for Sweden, and I haven't yet spoken to her, but I can only imagine the sheer panic that set in right before she left. But like I was, I'm sure she is fine. In fact, I'm sure she's better than fine, because she is now in SWEDEN, somewhere she worked so hard to get to and something she deserves so much. So congratulations, Michelle! You are awesome!
And now I have to go pack.
