3 weeks until I leave!

So, there are exactly 21 days until I leave. That's pretty close. Crazy! Exciting! Terrifyinggggg!

I've now had 4 or so Thai lessons, I can't really say how well they've been going. (I mean, it's not really enough time to judge, yet.) I can say some stuff, and understand some stuff, but it can get a little confusing. Plus, writing in Thai? CRAZY. Telling time in Thai? EVEN CRAZIER. WHAT IS THIS? Thai time is absolutely ridiculous. But it's always fun to learn a new language, so I'm enjoying it, even if I complain a lot. :]

I've sort of started to pack now. I've gone through my dresser, and pulled out everything I don't want to take with me. This way, I can keep wearing everything until I leave, but then I know exacly what I want to bring, and it won't take long to pack. I have yet to go through my closet, though. It's intimidating. What am I going to do about fluffy dresses? I can't go a year without them, but they will take up rather a lot of room in a suitcase. Which shall I bring? It's quite a dilemma. I'm also not sure what I'll do about shoes, but that's honestly less of a dilemma. Yay shoes, you do not cause me as much trouble as other things when packing.

- While writing this, fedex came and "tried to deliver my visa." They didn't even ring the doorbell. I heard the dog barking, so I ran downstairs. When I saw that it was Fedex, I ran (really, I was running) outside over to their truck. I was like five feet away and they drove off. AHHHHH. -

I've been sewing a lot lately. I know it's going to be hot in Thailand, so I've been making a lot of shorts. Yay. I've also been sewing other things, but shorts have pretty much been my priority. So far I have a green pair, a light blue pair with white swirlies, and a blue pair with white polkadots. I'm almost done with a pair of wizard print ones. Score, wizards.

Anywayyyyy. Ice cream party tomorrow. I should go to the Punk Rock Fleamarket, too, but I don't know if I can get anybody to go with me... It's on Sunday, also. The 18th is my super, super, super early birthday celebrationnnnn. The 13th is my mom's birthday, and on Sunday we're going to celebrate it. A few more Thai and Japanese lessons... and then I leave. Fun stuff.
