Check Check Check

My papers are all done. Grades are very acceptable.

Clothes donated to Red Cross. Various items sold to next year's AYF kids.

Bags almost packed, walls unusually bare.

Rollerbladed one last time -- last minute exploring. As I glided around I quizzed myself on Freiburg neighborhoods, recited them out loud, did pretty well.

It's weird. As the end approaches (tomorrow), the beginning feels so vivid. The emotions, sights, smells, tastes are so fresh. It was so awkward, so scary -- now I couldn't feel more comfortable.

Emotions I've been encountering as I close this chapter and anticipate the next:
excited
dread
entralled
overwhelmed
calm
free
lonely
happy
scared
excited
numb.

I don't know how to sort out my emotions right now, maybe next post will be more clearer.
