I knew that I would be anxious about this trip to Ireland, but the combination of anxious nervous and anxious excited is starting to freak me out a little. Everytime I think or start talking about this trip the expectations for what it will hold make me so excited to leave. But the thought of getting dropped off at the airport by my family, flying on my own for the first time, and not seeing any of mmy family for three months triggers the anxious nervous feeling and causes my stomach to do uncomfortable back flips.
Every time I mention this feeling to my mom she gives me a look and tells me I will be too busy having fun to miss her or that three months is the shortest trip ever and I shouldn't be nervous at all. I know I shouldn't be nervous or that being away from my family shouldn't be the cause of my nervousness. But this will be the first time that I will be more than an hour and a half away from my family, the first time I wont be able to hop a bus home for the weekend. Going home for the weekend won't even be an option and them visiting me is out of the question (excepting the case of an emergency).
While I am excited about this chance to completely rid myself of the crutch called my parents, it's making me nervous to think about taking this step. I rely on my parents more than I care to admit. When something important, exciting, or upsetting happens my first phone call is always to my mom or my dad. I know I will still be able to do that but I won't have the comfort of being able to see them in person and talk to them face to face.
Luckily this is the only nervousness I have been feeling. Other than potential homesickness I am really excited to leave. I am excited for the classes, to see what life at a University is like compared to Wentworth, to see how different the culture is, and to travel. There are sooo many places I want to see and so many things I want to do. I know I won't be able to do everything, but I will take what I can get.

Ipul We recently left for Disney World on 9/13. I was rlelay nervous about flying so close the 10th anniversary but this was the best rate so I went ahead and booked. My stomach hurt so badly because of nerves the entire flight. We actually had to take two different planes to Orlando and the first one went great no issues. Well when we got to Dallas to fly to Orlando they actually had air marshalls and police officers escort a male passenger off of the plane..Talk about FREAKING OUT! This was the longest 2 1/2 hours of my life. We landed safely but I don't think I will ever feel 100% comfortable flying again.
