I leave in less than a week for the city of Phuket. People continue to ask me if I'm excited, but all I can come up with are nerves. The plane ride by myself, my lack of Thai, being alone in a foreign country for the first time, separate from family and friends for five months. All of these things will be new for me, and you know what they say about the fear of the unknown.
I'm not sure as to when the excitement will set in, maybe when I get there. But until then, I plan to focus on what needs to be done. And there is a lot that needs to get done.
No matter the amount of work I do my list does not seem to shrink. If anything, it grows. At some point I am going to need to call in back up.
My mom comes home tomorrow from an adventure she has had with her sisters, then it is her birthday, then I will ask her for help. I have found there are very few things better than a mother's help.
Well I hope you all are enjoying your January.
Catch you on the flip side.
