As the wonders of packing began i realized 3 things about myself.
1) I am by for the worst packer ...ever.
2) I own way to much ( I considered submitting myself for an episode of hoarders)
3) I have the attention spam of a 3 year old and am easily distracted when amarathon of the Vampire Diaries on.
But some way some how i managed to pack 20 years worth of stuff into my tiny little car and 2 suitcases. I really feel like i should get some kind of award for that.
Once "edward" was all packed and ready to go the nice men came and got him and he headed out on his cross country journey to Los Angeles.
Once "Edward" left i was so spent and just ready to sleep for the next few days until my plane left but the show must go on...and i had a going away party to attend. Apparently you have to show up at your own going away party...no matter how tired you are.
Even though i was exhausted i had a great night while everyone that i love. My family came up from Miami and all my closest friends came out to say goodbye. We all just hung out ate food listened to good music and of course had cake.
Unless you are or have worked with Melody you wont understand the meaning of the quote on the cake. But it made me smile.
A good friend of the family Regina also made me a cake. It was the cutest thing ever. Its a makeup bag and little lipsticks and blush and mascara. Shes very talented.
As expected i took pictures with everyone....
And then id start crying...
And then take more pictures...and cry again. It became the pattern of the night. But what a night it was. I was so happy to have everyone that means the most to me all in one place to say goodbye.
The next day was the big day. I was headed off to LA.... so come 3:30 am Grandma and I are up and at the airport half asleep and crying and ready to take off. I cant lie. Saying goodbye to my mom and brother and puppies was the hardest thing iv ever done in my life. It was just the weirdest feeling to know that for the next few months i wasnt going to see them every moment of everyday. But i was off to start the next chapter in my life and i knew i had to go so we hopped on plane and head to Cali.
This was a now happy me as we were getting ready to land in LAX.
I could breathe again once we landed but little did i know the "fun" had only just begun.
