I'm leaving on a jet plane

And it's back to Sweden I go! Come hell or high water, I am going to Sweden in August. August 11, to be exact. That's when I board a plane headed for Europe, becuase I finally bought my tickets! Yay! I'll be heading to Amsterdam first, spending a few days there, then it's on to Stockholm for a few more days before finally arriving in my final destination of Falun on August 16. I still don't know where I'm staying in A'dam, but in Stockholm it's the Youth Hostel af Chapman & Skeppsholmen, on board a 19th-century sailing ship. Pretty cool, eh?

So, I'm back in the whirlwind of pressure and activity of getting ready to move overseas in only 2 months. I am very excited, but kind of stressed, too - there is so much to do, it's overwhelming at times. But at least I know I'm going.

Of course, if for some reason I don't get a residence permit, I'll be screwed, but I'll be going anyways. My tickets are non-refundable, so if my year in Sweden falls through, I'll be taking an extended vacation there, at least. Silver linings are great and all, but of course, I want to be there for the long haul. So here's hoping. Keep that good karma coming!
