Merhaba!
So,if you're reading this you must consider by blog to be relevant to some extent. I don't know if you should but that is a whole other issue. You'll soon come to realize that I have no experience blogging or using a computer for purposes other than school work, celebrity gossip and watching Law & Order: SVU. I beg you to bare with me - this blog might be as confusing for you as it is for me.
Now that the necessary disclaimer is out of the way - the infamous Turkish relocation can be discussed. Jayson and I leave tomorrow - yes, tomorrow. The past months of preparation have seemed somewhat surreal and unbelievable, but now the big move is just hours away.
My main concern? Nope, it is not being a Western female in a Muslim country. It is also not being unable to speak Turkish or anything thing else that I should probably be worried about. For those who know me real well - you know my main concern is my luggage. I wonder if it will arrive considering that one of my three suitcases could double as a body bag. I'm serious - an older gentleman made that comment to my mom and I walking out of the mall.
I'm not excited for the final goodbyes tomorrow as the initial ones took a toll on me and it is going to be harder tomorrow. That being said, I am so extremely excited for departing the suburbs and throwing myself into the Turkish lifestyle one experience and one moment at a time.
It goes without saying but I'm going to say it anyways - I miss everyone already and I hope you don't have any fun without me. Okay, that is not true but don't have any fun that isn't well documented because I want to hear all about it.
Over and out homies! I will "blog" (such a strange concept to me still) once I'm in the new homeland.
Nothing but love,
Britney
