Come at me, bro.

I have a feeling that the Weather God is conspiring against me.

For starters, about three-ish days ago there was an earthquake on the east coast. The epicenter of the earthquake was in Virginia, extremely close to Washington D.C. Incidentally, the same exact place I'll be in, in less that two weeks!

And now the entire east coast is waiting for this mother flippin' hurricane to arrive. If they delay our flight I think I'm going to have a seizure.

Anyhow, there are lots of things going on besides these weatherly mishaps.

For one, I actually made a list of things to do before I leave and I'm almost done! So far I've:

• bought my plane ticket to D.C.
• got my four passport photos (for residential permit)
• bought a travel kit thingy with toothpaste and stuff
• bought a light-weight towel so I can have it with me if I need it
• exchanged some dollars for euros ( have 100 euros)
• I have my debit card and credit card
• I went to the post office to find out about shipping and mailing to Germany
• And I finished packing!!!!

 I have like three things left to do. So if you're an extreme procrastinator like me, you would know what a great accomplishment this is. 

Now on to the host family bizz. My host sister still kinda intimidates me. But, (drumroll please) I HAVE SPOKEN TO MY HOST BROTHER!!!
Actually we only talked once because it seems he's not an avid facebook user. Either way, I was flipping out.

Another thing, my host mom insist that I don't pack a lot of things. She got me a coat! I don't know if it's going to fit me but that fact that she went out of her way to get me one is truly, truly amazing and something I find very touching.

Also, I went to the post office to see about shipping my guitar over but my host family has one! My host mom said its thirty years old and doesn't sound quite nice, but I'm sure that's only because it's not tuned. So, I won't have to pay to ship it over or check it in at the airport and risk it being damaged.

She told me that they've been fixing my room too! Unlike my last post where I was super emotional and stuff right now I'm pretty much really excited. I still can't fully accept that this is really going to happen. What an awesome feeling is.

Finally to close this off I have a serious note and funny one. The funny one is, my host mom tells me that the family is impatiently waiting for my arrival. And that the neighbors ask about me as well. Apparently my soon-to-be neighbors are really excited too, lol.

And the final note. As you might already have figured out or not. Music is really important to me. Every post save for one is concluded with a fragment of a song. So now that I won't be in the country I might not find as many songs but I will continue to my best ability. Also, with the song fragment I would like to add a link to youtube of the song it comes from. But, my taste in music may not be the same as yours so just as a warning I listen to rock, punk, alternative, metal-core, metal etc. So (if you're curious) for the sake of your ears, if by chance there is a song too loud/hardcore I will label the fragment/quote with an asterisk.

Many musical greetings through this lovely storm and as Gerard Way says, "Shut up and sing it with me." ;)
