In one week, I will be setting foot on a continent some call Asia. It will be continent number 4 that I have had the opportunity to explore and wreck havoc in. I am going over there to become Ms. Ali, the jr.high English teacher. Thankfully, I will not have to wear heels every day  to remind students that I am the teacher and NOT some new student awkwardly standing in the front of the class like I would have had to do if I were teaching in America.

Sometimes I wonder how I have gotten to this point in my life where I am leaving all my friends, family and the English language for a year. I had always planned to leave America after I graduated but it seems surreal that it is actually happening. I am excited, sad, nervous, and anxious all the time, it's exhausting. I decided to spend my final days in America waking up late, spending time with friends and family, eating all the food I will surely miss next year and watching countless episodes of Law and Order: SVU.

I will update this bad boy as much as I can with all my Asian Adventures. I will miss most of you reading this (just kidding) and will try to skype your faces as much as I can. You can tell me how Asian I am starting to look.

Miss you America, see you in a year.

Love,
Nance
