July 1st is getting closer!

This is going to be such a huge change in my life. There are so many emotions that are running around my head I thought I would make a short list.

Sadness: Moving far away from everyone I know and love
Excitement: Looking forward to new experiences, meeting new people, exploring new places, facing new challenges
Anxiety: Have I packed everything I need???
Shock: I can't believe I've left the job I love after 12 years!
Happiness: Feeling good about making a positive decision for myself that may benefit others
Thoughtfulness: Been thinking about and researching ways teachers in the US are instructing youth on technology, and its been pretty interesting. Hopefully there will be enough infrastructure to implement these ideas in Jamaica

There are many more but maybe too personal for a blog like this.

Anyway the first two are the strongest, and quite conflicting. The date is coming quick!
