Down To The Wire

Mission for the week:

-Doctor appointment tomorrow to get TB testing done. - Monday
-Go to Consulate to pick up Work Visa. - Tuesday
-Return to Doctor to get TB results and pick up last check. -Wednesday
-TRY TO SPEND AS MUCH TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS AS POSSIBLE.

Well... today be Sunday. Saturday... exactly six days from now... I'll already be en route to Japan. Man, time's going pretty fast. I'm also having more moments now where I realize how much I'm going to miss people. I guess before I didn't really visualize or realize the reality of me leaving since it wasn't as close away as it is now.

But, with only 5 days and so and so hours left in Miami, it's harder to ignore. Don't get me wrong though... I'm not regretting this choice to move to Japan nor am I not excited about my future. I'm just more aware of what I'm sacrificing. But, like a very good friend told me... family and friends (at least true friends) will always be part of your life no matter what you do in life or where it takes you or how far apart you are. Also, (more good advise from another wise friend) the world is smaller than you realize.

So, well... that's all I have going for me these next couple of days.
