IT'S TIME!!

I'm not going to lie. 

October is here, and I'm freaking out.

Why? 

Because, it's time to start my mission papers!

Guys, this is real life. 

No jokes. 

This is it. 

I'm making the next big step in my life,

 in just a few days! 

I plan on meeting with my bishop this 

Sunday to get started. 

It's all just real now. 

Instead of saying "I'm planning on a mission" 

I can now say

"I'm going on a mission!"

I've had several moments of 

"holy crud. It's here. It's here already!"

Kind of like those moments you have to 

remind yourself that you're an adult.

Don't get me wrong, 

although I'm freaking out, 

I'm super excited!

I can't believe I'll have this 

amazing opportunity!

It will be the best 18 months of my life. 

I already know it. 

I just have to get there without 

anymore freak outs!

Thankfully, I have my mom, 

and a few RM friends that talk me through it.

And thankfully I have friends who are out

 in the field right now, 

who I can write to and ask all 

the dumb questions.

Like, "How long do you have to

 get ready for the day?" 

(Yeah, I know. I'm such a girl. 

I worry about that stuff, okay!)

And what kind of shoes works best?

And blah blah blah. 

IT'S HERE YOU GUYS!!
