Well... it is that time. I can't believe it is finally here. I have my bag packed, my documents in order and mentally I feel like I am ready. I have to prepare myself for the many solo times ahead. Let's face it, I had the best summer ever. I reconnected with a ton of old friends, I met a ton of new friends, I was out and about almost every day and night and I really never got a chance to sit, rest and reflect. I know this will be a good thing for me. Probably a little eye opening, but definitely a good thing. I love it, my Mom yesterday said she would have loved to have gone with me. I did invite her (along with everyone else), because I knew this was going to be an amazing experience. Lot's of people sounded excited, but truly never got around to really doing it. Now, I look back and I am glad no one took me up on my offer. For whatever reason, I am meant to go solo and I choose to embrace that.
Ok, no more serious, deep thought stuff. What did I pack?
4 shirts
3 pants
1 pair of snowboard pants
5 pairs of socks
5 pairs of underware
a sleepingbag (Thanks Reid!)
3 sweaters
2 pairs of shoes
1 down sweater
1 rain coat
1 swimsuit
1 beanie (Logan made me ;-)
1 pair of snow gloves
a couple other things here and there
and...
an open mind
