Pre-Departure Blog 1- Leaving Montana

Alright, I did it. I created my first blog in about 6 years. I created this Blogger account back in 9th grade for an English class, but never opened it again. I find it much easier to spend an hour on math homework than an hour writing, but as I am about to embark on the biggest, and hopefully best, adventure to date, there is no way I cannot record what is coming in the next few months.

I am halfway through my 3rd year at the University of Montana and I still find myself in shock that there is only a year an a half of school left. If you asked me how old I felt or what year I think I am going into, I would confidently say that I think I am a freshman starting in college. Grandparents and other family members have always said, "Time flies by" and I would nod, but it is so true!

This is the first blog and stage 1 of the big adventure. I am packing everything up and getting ready to move out of my apartment in Montana. I have enjoyed a pre-Christmas celebration with great friends and have finished my last day at work for a while. I am down to just 2.5 days left! On Sunday I will fly back to spend the holidays with family before I get ready to fly to WALES!! I've only been waiting to say that for a year...or two...or twelve.

Hwyl fawr (goodbye) for now!
