Prêt(?)
3:29 PMThe French word of the day/week/moment is prêt….I hope. It’s coming down to the last couple of days before my departure, and I am not concerned at all, which, in turn, is concerning me. My visa came in the mail, I bought a camera from my friend and a large backpacking backpack for my weekend trips, but other than that I’m not sure that I have much more to do before I leave.
One would think that I would have much more to do to prepare for this semester, but somehow I don’t. Instead of packing/preparing I have spent the last couple of days getting way too in to season two of “Project Runway”, (which unfortunately has led me to believe that I am a talented, yet undiscovered designer), and listening to the melodious works of Ke$ha (who apparently has the same birthday as me and was never homeless, contrary to a brilliant theory I had). Both have inspired me to spend the last couple of days DIY-ing some clothing items that I hope will be fun to tell my new European comrades about, unless of course I never get there because I have made some monumental mistake in forgetting to do something before my departure.. In that case, at least I’ll have Tim Gunn circa 2006 to blame.
My life theory that I just came up with right now is that if I believe I am prêt, I will be prêt. And I truly believe that I am. Prêt for an adventure, prêt for something new, prêt pour les hommes français, and, most importantly, prêt à partir.
Now, to pack my life away for the next four months…..
