everything happens for a reason...
this time last year i found myself scrambling around trying to pack 6 years of my life into boxes. 5 boxes, 3 suitcases and a couple of garbage bags, it is weird to see your life broken down that way. i came to the US at 20 telling myself that DC was going to be my second home. DC indeed became my home away from home it was where i spent most of my youth, it is where i learned not to mix my red shirt with the whites, where i learned that raid is the best way to kill roaches or that my neighbor down the hall is not that scary he just loves to blast his music use pinesol like it's water. it is the city that i love and will love until i become a little old lady with cats.
so with thoughts like that racing through my mind no wonder it took me almost an hour just to click the purchase button for a one way ticket going to california. one click was all it took to change my life forever. no turning back i suppose...
"i am moving to california" saying it out loud makes it more real. next month i am once again moving away from my friends, my home, my comfort zone. i'm a jumble of emotions; anxiety,panic, excitement, panic, dread, panic,happiness, panic, hopeful, panic and more panic.
7 years of my life in boxes now that will be quite a sight to see...
