Please not this is not actually me. It is some girl from google search being excited too.
The anticipation of a leisure travel trip very often reminds me of the same feeling I used to get the night before the first day of school. You are not really sure what lies ahead, but you are very excited to see whatever that may be. So far, I have done a good job suppressing this feeling. That was until this morning. As soon as I awoke I had a smile on my face and now I can’t seem to ward off the tension in my chest and butterflies in my stomach. In the loud voice of Oprah, please image me saying, “I am excittttteeeedddddddddddd!”
Excited for what exactly you may ponder. I am looking forward to seeing my family, which as most my age now know, it sadly takes some distance and years to realize how great they have always been. I can NOT wait to hang out with my girls. I have been around to many guys between work and B’s friends and I need some giggles and nail polish. The whole flight over I may replay The Beatles “Here Come the Sun”, as seeing that giant, warm and tanning star could not make me happier when I currently enjoy 6 hours of light through grey clouds and tinted windows at work. Which reminds me I will enjoy a break from work, who doesn’t like to relax?! I’m also pretty pumped about how cheap everything is in the US, as in we can afford to go to a mediocre restaurant, be served ridiculously large portions and drink more than 2 beers before we max out budget.
Oh, and I nearly forgot to mention the most important, the biggest, the specialist, best, most well planned, thought out day of my entire life in which no other day will ever compare in the whole history of the world and even the world will stop rotating for a split second and *spoiler alert* I arranged for a solar eclipse the moment we say, “I Do”, my wedding day. Yup, that day will be pretty awesome.
Naturally, when you get so many amazing things in one trip human nature only allows you to think about the things you don’t get. In this case, unfortunately, is the family and friends I will not be seeing on my trip. Those of you who fall in this group and are reading this should know that I will be generically thinking I wish you were here. Because I really do.
One more time though, I just need to emphasize how excited I am to get off that plane and sing “God Bless America” to my loving fiancé while we are going through passport control in Miami! Wooooo Whoooo!
I want to hear how Gob Bless America goes! I bet tear will come to the workers eyes!
I really do wish the best for you guys and am so sorry we can’t be there! We will be thinking about you though, as we sit at home watching it rain/snow and longing for the warm sun! Enjoy!!
