Good-Bye Texas!

My parents keep pushing the move date, but fo' real - this is it y'all. I'm leaving tomorrow for the San Francisco Bay Area. And by that, I mean Oakland, but the former sounds more boo-jee.

Here's the final tally: 5 suitcases and 5 boxes. That's not too bad right? Just 10 things to move across the country. I'd say that's rather efficient, in true QD fashion:

Things I'll miss about Texas: essentially family, friends, familiarity.

Things I won't miss: the weather and politics.

I'm not as excited as I thought I'd be to make the big move. I remember when I was getting ready to study abroad in Denmark, I was the same way - I didn't want to be overly excited and then end up sorely disappointed. I think that's the same mentality I've taken with San Francisco. Let's just see how things go. To be honest I'm more concerned with adjusting to life over there (e.g. finding a place to get a haircut, transportation, grocery shopping) than the actual school part (e.g. ochem and physics and lab!).

See you in San Francisco,
