it's really going to happen.

yes folks, I think I've hit the actual realization point: I'm moving to london. holy shite. the loans are actually in the process of getting disbursement dates, I'm this close to booking a hostel for next week, and my schedule in the next couple of days has to include actual packing and moving.

not that I'm sad about any of this. but, in a way, I am. while I may be returning to chicago in a year's time -- at least, that's the current plan -- my chicago life will never be the same. and that's a good thing. but it's still as scary as hell.

note to tarot card lady: you didn't need to tell me that my lifepath number is about "expansive change." now that's how I contextualize this entire experience. thanks a bunch.
