T-Minus 34 hours

Well

In about 34 hours I will be in England with Sam. My plane leaves a little after noon tomorrow to start my long journey across the ocean. I say long, it's accomplished in a few hours. I think about how long the ordeal to cross any ocean was in a wooden ship. Or any ship, for that matter. Loooooooong ass time.
I cleaned my bathroom, and my room is almost 100% put together for when I leave. I'm making copies of all my important documents for my parents to have, and double-checking everything. I think I'm ready...I know I'm ready.
I have really missed Knoxville this summer and there's a part of me that's very sad that I'm not going back this year. I will return at some point and thus wreck havoc on Ktown.

I've been going over a lot of options I have for jobs while I'm over there. Sam thinks I can be an English tutor. I suppose I'll try, but I'm still going to hit up all the talent and modeling agencies while I'm in Paris. No better city to do that in, right? Of course I'll be street performing for plus d'argent. Also, I noticed there are a ton of MAC makeup stores and I want to apply to every one. I freakin' love that stuff.
I didn't sleep at all last night because I want to beat the jet lag. I figure I can make myself tired enough that I'll fall asleep early this evening, which is normal late-ish bedtime for England/Paris.
Sam has this wonderful tea chest that he left at my house when he went back home. I'm going to try and take it with me, but I don't know if I have the room...I do love it, though.

In other news, I watched 'Taken' last night due to my father's adamant request that I see it. I really liked the movie, but it did not scare me into not going to Paris (sorry, Dad). I promise I won't share a cab with some creeper who's going to sell me to human trafficking. In all seriousness, that is a big fat awful issue that I feel needs more global attention, so I'm glad the movie came out. I do feel a bit safe (and maybe a bit concerned?) that I can call my dad if I'm ever in some deep sh*t and he can be over in a few hours to rescue me.

I'm really bummed about not being able to take Poison Apple or Secret Admirer (my hoops) with me...I'm sure I'll make a non-collapsible one while I'm there, it's just that those are so pretty and I love them...

GOD SO EXCITED. *squee!* can't even hold it in...Hopefully my next post will be from across an ocean!

~love~
