Just over nine days until I fly into the future. Due to the time change, it’s really the future, because I experience 8am 14 hours before you experience 8am. Worm-holes aside, I am getting really anxious, nervous, and excited. Anxious because I want to things to change. Right now. I don’t want to wait 9 days for things to happen. Nervous because I might forget something, or it might not be as good as I expected over there, or my flight crashes in the middle of the Pacific. Excited because it is inevitable that I will change as a person, because my eyes will be opened to a new worldview (something I hope to be able to pass on to my readers).
Nobody likes to experience something by themselves, so here are a few links to hopefully get you as excited as I am.
