Hwyl Fawr and Pob lwc


For those of you who, like me, speak little or well no welsh my translator says that Hwyl Fawr is welsh for "goodbye" andPob Lwc "good luck," which seems to me to be about the only thing left to say...tomorrow is the big day.

I cannot actually believe that after months of waiting, planning, freaking out, planning, and freaking out some more I am actually this close to being on a plane directed towards Cardiff, Wales. What on earth was I thinking when I decided I wanted to do this?! Look at that beautiful sunset, everyday here in the valley has been a gift of beautiful sunshine, warmth, and the love of my family and some of my best friends...I keep wondering whether or not I should be institutionalized for going off to the rain, darkness, and cold, but then I remember.

Oh yeah, this could be one of the absolute most wonderful experiences of college if not my entire life and there are people out there, wonderful people, for me to meet. How incredibly blessed am I to have this opportunity, let's not waste it on worries. So then, off to the airport.

I invite you all to share this incredible journey with me, for better or for worse...Wales forever.
