It's almost time to leave!

In less than an hour I leave for breakfast with my family before i take off for the airport. I spent most of the night awake, completely torn between the excitement of leaving to do something so amazing and close to my heart...and the sadness of of leaving the people I love the most. I have had a really nice visit in San Diego. My family has been so sweet. My dad took me out yesterday to buy all of these little odds and ends, and my mom bought me beautiful rose colored towels. She knows I care about things like that, however I'm not sure if I will after this experience. Who knows? Well I better get a move on. I still need to pull a couple things out of my suit case to ensure I can bring it all...plus is is freaking cold in Philadelphia. :) YAY it's finally here!
