Off to Europe
Posted by Lena at 12:23 AM on March 16, 2005.
So I'm leaving for Europe tomorrow and I'm sooooooooooo nervous!! Mostly the plane ride is giving me frog size butterflies in my tummy...but otherwise just nervous about leaving home for so long. I've never been away from CA for so long but this is just what I need to face my fear of flying + live a little!
I'm just freaking out right now cause I want to make sure I pack everything and leave nothing out. But most importantly, my digital camera is ready to go! WHOOHOO!! Pictures galore!
On Monday morning I got to my work and there was a wrapped gift for me at my desk. One of my bosses, Desi, knitted me a scarf for the cold in London. Isn't that soooo sweet!!! That was so awesome of her! And then I went and said bye to my co-workers and gave them all hugs..I'm gonna miss them. I know it's only 10 days, but I get people attached!
And today I got off work early and went to find a small gift for my friend Maria in Barcelona, cause I wanted to get her something for showing us around, and so my sister suggested Bath & Body works. So I went there but thought, oh she could probably get that there in Europe, but I asked the lady and the lady said they only have Bath & Body Works in the Continental US...so not Hawaii or Alaska!! So my friend Maria will get something American! hehe
And I can buy myself something Spain!
Okay wish me luck and Happy Birthday Sze Wan!!!!!
Hopefully we'll get it tomorrow! It has my beans! I brought 4 cans of baked beans...it's a morning breakfast item they eat in London and it's delicious!
