Ahhh am I leaving already???

Dear Followers (just Mom and Danielle maybe?),

Hello!

Packing for 4 months away from home has definitely landed fairly high on my list of top stressful experiences (that I probably made out to be harder than it actually should have been). But all that is (mostly) said and done now. Phew.

Got the essentials:
Toothbrush- Check.
Socks- Check.
Pair o Jeans- Check.
Bathing Suit- Also Check.
Epi Pens- Triple Check.
Antivenom in case of snake bite from one of Australia's many deadly animals- No. Unfortunately the Newtown CVS does not seem to carry this for some reason...

And... a whole lot of other unnecessary belongings that take up 2 suitcases and 2 carry-on...

Well, I am headed off in just a few hours for the 24 hour journey from Newark to Melbourne- quite the voyage, but I think it will definitely be worth the wait! Soon I will be getting my first glimpse of Melbourne, hearing some great Australian accents, and seeing my super nice Australian relatives!

So for now- Bye Newtown! Bye Haverford! Bye February 15th (the day lost in between travel and time zones)! Bye Family! Bye Cats? See ya soon Melbourne...
