Goodbye, Ann Arbor :(

I had my last German class of the summer today, so there's no reason to remain in AA. I'm packin' up and headed back to Detroit for these last...lemme count...18? 18! 18 days. Wow.

These last two and a half weeks will consist of me running around shopping for last minute things, getting my suitcase(s) together for Deutschland, calming my mother's frayed nerves, spending quality time with my loved ones, taking care of this USD-->Euro business at the bank, getting my scholarships sorted out, declaring my dual major in German and Engineering, and trying not to forget any German I've crammed these last few weeks.

Even though my departure date is fast approaching, it still doesn't seem real. Should I give it another week? It's hard to imagine that as my friends are moving in and enjoying the Welcome Week festivities on campus, I'll be sitting in an airport and flying across the Atlantic. I suppose all I can do is take it one day at a time.

Well, I'm off to make sure I haven't forgotten anything in the nooks and crannies of my apartment and to listen to a bit of Oomph! Goodbye, Ann Arbor. I miss you already.
