I Hate Goodbyes....

Today is Thursday, three days before I leave. I still cannot wrap my head around the concept of moving to Asia yet but I obviously know it's coming (and quickly).

In this last week, I've been trying to fit a lot of things in that I'll surely miss while living on a different continent; a pseudo bucket-list but without the inevitable death at the end. I've been playing with my dog a lot, enjoying the sights, sounds, and smells of my house, and partaking in some last minutes activities. Like yesterday when my brother, Mike, and I spent the whole day at the zoo. It was awesome because I forgot how much I enjoy animals and I got Dippin' Dots out of the deal...and it was fun to act like a kid again.

After the fun we had at the zoo however, it was time to say goodbye to my one and only brother. It was odd because I'll be back for Christmas so it feels weird to make a dramatic event of it. With that in mind however, it's still really sad/confusing to watch him drive away and know that the next time I see him, there will be snow on the ground in Minnesota and I'll be four months into my year-long contract in Taiwan.

How much is going to change in that time? My guess: a lot.
