Last week in Denmark

Tuesday: Thought I should continue packing, I just relaxed. Had my last evening with Dad, I’m gonna miss those evenings. I cooked, didn’t like it myself though. Dad ate it.

Wednesday: Packing? Nope – relaxing.

Thursday: Doctors appointment. It’s so windy and rainy. Normal it takes me 7 minutes to ride my bike to the doctors. Today it took 30 minutes because of the rain and wind. But the appointment went well and I got my prescriptions.
Then I headed out for lunch, movie and goodbye with Linea. Lunch was great, movie – really not the best. And the goodbye was postponed to Friday.

Friday: Headed out with Linea, to buy a last present and getting my prescriptions. We had lunch again and then it was goodbye. Really weird, knowing it will be long before we see each other again, Just standing there looking at each other. I took her quit by surprise, but I felled that it was now or never. I was ready and taking the bike rest of the way would be too hard for me. But I hope she can come visit me.
Then in the evening we celebrated my grandma’s 70th birthday.

Saturday: The day has arrived, suitcase packed for the second time and the “see ya’s” to my dear family. A fantastic evening, everyone wrote in my guestbook, which I started when I turned 18. No Drama, many laughs, discussions, showing pictures of the new family and big hugs from everyone. Drove my grandma home while my aunt uncle, cousins and Gaby was still in the house. We ended up sitting and having a great time until 11.30pm. Then it was time for them to leave too. It was a very nice and calm evening with my family, and I like that :)
I’m very proud of myself, I didn’t cry when I gave the last hugs. I waited until I was alone. I’m the kind of person who suffers in silent, keeping a smile on my lips until the very end. At the same time, I don’t think I realized that I wasn’t going to see them any time soon before I sat alone in the living room. But it was a nice evening.

Sunday: re-packing for the second time, I have 2 kg left in my suitcase and I still need a few more things :/ I’ll just sit on my suitcase – AGAIN to close it. I’m so glad I bought that suitcase weight! Sat on my swing in the backyard for a while, took it all in, listening to some Danish Music. It’s weird that I’m going to be away for such long time!
The last couple of days I have more or less tried to behave like normal, not hanging around my parents -  because I never sit on their laps all day. I have behaved normal. Being outside, listening to music, being in my room with closed door (which by the way is very normal and not because I’m angry. I just like doors to be closed) Going around in my own little world, packed down some more stuff wondering whether or not I have forgotten anything.
Probably won’t post anything the next couple of days. But I will try to do a timeline post like this one so you can follow the process. If the posts get long – I apologize now. But this is actually happening, I’m on my way.
See you all, on the other side of the world!
