USA

welp, this is it. my last full day in america. tomorrow evening i'm leaving on a jet plane, and don't know when i'll be back again. (december 17th.) today is my last day to enjoy so many essential parts of my life. for example: iced coffee, a fully functional cell phone, my own bed, surroundings where everyone speaks english, and access to my entire wardrobe. i haven't even placed items in a suitcase yet and i'm already going into a packing induced coma.

last night was my mom's birthday and it was also the last family dinner i'll have in a very long time. believe it or not, i actually enjoy spending time with the parentals and shit-head little brother. it's a mystery of life that might never be solved. you may be wondering, "but andie, you don't leave until tomorrow night, why aren't you having dinner with your family tonight?" well world, i guess when it comes down to having dinner with your sister before she leaves for four months, or getting free box seats to a crucial giants vs diamondbacks game, a brother will always pick the latter. i admit, was pissed for .5 seconds until i realized i would never pass up those seats.

i'm procrastinating currently because i won't get out of bed. i don't want to pack my life up yet. UGH #abroadgirlproblems.
