I've spent my summer working, sleeping, surviving endless practices of Fur Elise (courtesy of Weston), and worrying about my trip. I received my Britain and Europe guidebooks in early June, and UEA has been sending me information. Luckily, I got my passport in mid-July and got my student visa at the beginning of August. Now, I'm concentrating on what I need to pack, and, of course, what I need to buy.
Since I only have four weeks left (finally!), I'm obsessing much more about my upcoming departure. I'm worried about catching my flight from Detroit to Atlanta (I have an 1/2hr-45min layover). I'm worried about the 8 hour layover in Atlanta, and then another 3 hours in Amsterdam--what will I do? I don't know that my book will last that long! And I'm especially worried about catching a taxi, by myself, from the airport to the university. Mostly, though, I'm excited to leave, excited to quit work, excited to try something new.

Farewell we call to hearth and hall! Though wind may blow and rain may fall, We must away, ere break of day Far over wood and mountain tall.
