I finally did it. It took two years of extensive planning and budgeting, but I finally made it. I missed a lot of girls' nights and parties but it was all worth it now. Two years ago is when it all started, it was a week before I started my first semester in college. I was so excited to finally be leaving high school and start a new path. Now I wasn't the little kid that no one took seriously,I was 4 months away from being a consented adult and I was finally becoming an independent woman. I went to my campus of Westminster College a week before classes started to get registered and some school supplies. As I was getting my school ID photo taken, I saw a book at one of the information booths. It was a small book, about 10-15 pages long and was titled " SWAP: Working Abroad"* It seemed to peek my interest so I took a copy and quickly leafed through the pages and it seemed like a solid deal. The idea of the program was for students or young adults to sign up and choose a destination in Europe or other parts in the world to work,live and play for about a year or two. All my life, my dream had been to travel to world and explore the countries' cultures and landscapes. So I decided to save up my money so I could go on this trip, I met a financial adviser and a travel agent to help me get on this journey and now two years later I made it. Here I was at Pierre Trudeau Airport waiting for my 6am flight to London, England to start boarding passengers. All my family and friends were here to bid me goodbye and ensure I leave safely. My mother was next to me , stroking my hair softly, " Make sure you stay safe out there honey, don't talk to weirdos and make sure you call home to tell us you're okay. We're going to miss you dear." "Thanks,Mom" I said. I appreciated the fact that my family weren't an overemotional bunch and didn't make a huge scene as I left, my best friends Liz and Marie on the other hand weren't so non-nonchalant hell, they were a blubbering mess. "Make sure you call us everyday OK?! And get a boyfriend I'm tired of seeing you single!" Liz sobbed. I blushed slightly then rolled my eyes, "Don't worry guys, we'll talk everyday alright? love you guys" We all embraced in a group hug. After 45 minutes of tears, heart to heart conversations and eye-rolling it was time for me to board my plane, as I walked through the entrance of the plane I felt my emotions start to sink in and a lump begin to develop in my throat. Crap. Trying not to get attention, I trotted to my seat. Luckily, I had a window seat so I couldn't be bothered by other passengers. While I sat in my seat, I finally let my emotions started to well up in my eyes, tears of joy and fear. Even though, I was ecstatic about leaving the country and starting something new, I feared for the uncertainty of my future and how I would fit in when I got to London. Just as I was putting on my seat belt and the plane started to drive onto the runway, I saw my family and friends wave goodbye at me through the window I waved back weakly. God, I'm really going to miss them. The plane started to pick up speed and take off, I took a deep cleansing breath to relax my overactive nerves. This will be fun, this will be an adventure.
