It is 3 something in the morning and I'm awake. My tummy was inexplicably hurting and I found that lying down was making it worse so I decided to surf the web and write a blog. My flight leaves at 11:25 AM today... geez, time crept by and ambushed me.
My bro and sis helped me fix the room today and put away some of my old stuff. Thank goodness... otherwise, I might not even be finished yet. For the most part, I finished packing ... I just need to insert one bottle of perfume, contact lens solution, and two pairs of shoes in my luggage and then I'm done.
I AM WITHOUT A DOUBT GOING TO MISS MY FAMILY. I mean, they drive me crazy and all, but I love them. The weird thing about me is that I have always loved the east coast and I never really thought of myself as someone who was attached to home. I've been going by myself to New York for months at a time since I was twelve years old... since then, I always thought that I would study in the east. I seriously considered going to NYU for undergrad and dental school. Before I even applied for dental school, I already told everyone that I wanted to go to Boston University. In other words, I've always wanted to study out of state and get the full east coast experience. But in the last couple of months and especially today, it hit me. I am more attached than I thought I was. I am sadder than I thought I would be. I am more scared than ever. And although Pittsburgh was my first choice, I have some regret.
Mom took us out to dinner tonight. My bro, sis, and mom all told me that they will miss me. It's probably a weird feeling for them. They are sad that I will be leaving but at the same time happy because they know how much I wanted to go to dental school.
::Sigh::
I love them all. I'll be seeing them come December in NY. Then, I will be flying home w/ them to San Jose for a couple of days. In the immortal words of General Douglas McArthur, "I shall return." And hopefully, I will still be sane (well as sane as I could be for me) and cuter than ever.

I was going to call you last night, but I didn't want the disturb you if you were sleeping!
Its okay to feel homesick when you get to Pitt. Last year I was okay for the first few weeks and then about a month in I felt really homesick and missed my family a lot. I just called them a lot and eventually it passed.
You've probably gone to bed, but have a safe journey!
