It is the dawn of my last full day here in the States, and I'm ready to go.
Well, that's not entirely true, I still have to finish packing some last minute things and make sure that my flight and arrival plans are all tied up. But I spent last night saying my final goodbyes to my friends at DePaul, and I feel ready to leave.
This summer has probably been the longest and possibly greatest one of my life. I remember each summer by the theme of what I did, and this one will definitely be remembered as the summer of storytelling. The very first day of summer I participated in a role playing game, I played in a game once a week for the whole summer, I became heavily immersed in the rules and mythos of Dungeons and Dragons, and I ultimately decided to run my own storytelling game when I return this winter.
When I was not involved in role playing, I was usually watching TV. This summer, either through DVDs or the internet, I viewed a total of 12 series of television (1 of Lost, 1 of Dr. Who, 5 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 3 of Avatar: the Last Airbender, 1 of Glee, and 1 of Coupling). It was entertaining to say the least and hopefully helped me to further understand how to develop an interesting, grounded character.
My flight leaves tomorrow afternoon (if it is not delayed) and I expect to be out of contact with everyone back home for a couple of days due to orientation and getting my internet hooked up there. So, I wish everyone lots of love and ask that you keep in touch whenever you have the chance.
