so the date is set and i'm leaving this town. Two days after my birthday i'm going to be boarding a train and i'm going to be gone. it's nerve raking and exciting and i'm just over the moon about it. Yes i'm going to miss my family here, but on the same hand i'm going to be starting on my own a little bit. I'll be back 'home' after a couple weeks, just to get a taste of things. but i know i'll be going back. i want to give this a fair shot and i'm thinking after my trip back home i won't come back for at least 5 months. its amazing how just one text can change your whole day :)
