Update! :D

Still 99 days! I have another friend coming in from July 11th and 12th! I'm so excited <3 My time that's left is just going to be full of meeting friends, packing, eating, and sleeping! Poor Tera. (videogame I bought)

Counting down :D

99 days! Yesterday, with the help of mom and dad, we purchased my ticket to Honolulu. I'll be leaving September 6th at around 6:45, take about an hour to get to JFK, layover for two hours, then take an 11 hour flight to HNL, arriving in Honolulu at 3pm. It'll be a long day for me, but I think I'll be too excited to care!

Less than three weeks until I get to see my friend from Tennessee, and two days after that, I get to go to Montreal to visit my other friend and his girlfriend :D Now that I've bought my ticket, I know I have to get cracking on the whole packing thing. I have (what I think are) all the boxes I'll need for packing.

Seeing amazing people soon!

101 days! I've been kind of busy, so I haven't been able to keep up with this whole blog thing. Management at my apartment found out I have a cat, as well as complained that my apartment was too messy. After giving me 4 days to rectify each (they were rectified after about 6), they sent me a letter stating that my lease would not be renewed and my move-out date is August 31. I guess it's not a bad thing, since I was planning on moving out by then anyway!

I have two weeks of earned vacation coming up from June 14-28. I'll be spending much of the 14-18 with my family, spending the 18-20 with a very close friend from Tennessee (it's all the time she could take off work), and spending the 21-28 taking a road trip up to Montreal to see the friend that I got back in contact with recently! I've always loved road trips, so I'm happy that I get one more before I leave. I got tons of advice on how to manage the drive up and the drive back, and here's what I'm doing:

Yes, I'm driving it in one day.
Yes, I've planned pit stops for 10-15 minutes each.
Yes, I'm taking my own food and water in a cooler with me.
No, I'm not driving at night (I know the traffic is better, but my eyesight can't handle night driving well)
Yes, I'm cleaning my car before I go.
Yes, I'm getting the oil changed before I go.

I'm leaving around 7 or 8am, headed north, and planning on being up there by about 7pm, including the rest stops and going very close to the speed limit.

That's really all the news I have right now, but I'm sure it'll pick up when things really get going on the move.
