booksnchocolate T-1 DAY TIL TAKE OFF and jee whiz your girl is going crazy.
THERE ARE SO MANY DANCE CLASSES I WANT TO GO TO, but I have a tattoo appointment for tomorrow and we're moving literally all my stuff Thursday morning before my flight and I just? Am A Mess.
But! Got to say goodbye to Ally, our dance teacher, tonight, after a great class and it was really touching and beautiful. I wrote her a little card and bought some chocolates and while I was giving them to her, I got to tell her how awesome her class is and how it's the highlight of my week every week. I mentioned that I feel like I've really grown as a dancer in her class and she looked at me and said "you have, and I know you know it" in like a really heartfelt way and it was BEAUTIFUL and I'm so happy about that because honestly fuck yes, validate my accomplishments. :D And she complimented the energy and enthusiasm that I bring to the class (listen, my blogs may be full of angst and whinging, but I promise I'm a delight in person, okay) and although I'm sad to say goodbye, I'm really glad I got to take her classes because it's been so lovely.
Then, I took selfies with Teresa and Kylie (dance friends) and they complimented my singing (!!!!) and I got to say bye to them on the subway.
I also said bye to my Oma today. I know she's really sad that I'm leaving, especially since my little cousins just got back from Korea, but hopefully they're old enough to keep her occupied until I can visit.
I'm wavering between excitement at such a big adventure and just. Exhaustion and sadness at leaving my friends and family. IDK. I'm tired, honestly. (>.> not saying it's because I'm running on eight hrs of sleep over two days but. That's definitely got a lot to do with it.) I'm getting maudlin rn, so I'll come back to this later, maybe type out a whole deluge of feels on the plane or something.
On the plus side, I can now rap part of Face and part of Not A Game (I've just been rapping along with them when I'm walking places, like the bus stop or the grocery store, and I have definitely noticed I'm improving at saying words faster!).
