Tomorrow I will be packing as I study for American Literature and Lithuanian exams. Is it time to pack already? Deciding what to leave behind, deciding what I can't afford to leave.
Thursday I am leaving my dear Lithuanian home with my roommates. I am going with a friend to be in Vilnius for that evening and Friday.
Saturday I get on a plane, and Saturday I arrive in Chicago at 3pm and will have to stay up until a normal bed time, which is equivalent to the early hours for my body. Ideally I will be so exhausted so I will sleep so well and wake up refreshed for church. Though more likely, I will be exhausted, sleep, and wake up exhausted for church.
I will be at church in five days.
I will sleep in my bed in four nights.
How are these sentances truth?
Sorry if these things seem silly, but I am already in shock, and it doesn't have to do with culture. I just don't really know what to think about all the things that are true about what is happening in my life.
Tomorrow, some friends and I are going to go out for a little nice dinner. That will be really great. It is sad to think it is the last time I will get together with them all while we're here. I have cried about leaving my European friends, and have not even thought about the fact that I will also be leaving my American friends. None of them live close either. There is a lot of indefinitely leaving in my life.
