A Big...No, A Huge Step Out Of The Comfort Zone

So, here we are, the time has eventually come. I've been mumbling quite a lot about what title I should choose for this short and monolingual post, and I've come to the conclusion this is by far the most appropriate.

Yes, what I will be doing tomorrow can but be called a huge step out of my comfort zone and, in a wider sense, out of my world, my safe little bubble.

I'm going to be completely honest with you: with the date of my departure coming closer, a part of me -do not ask how relevant- began refusing the whole thing. This part of me just didn't want to carry on the project I had been dreaming of for a while. Hence why the last few days have been, well, pure crap (huge thanks also to the misery and the cold that came to torment me, as if this emotional struggle of mine weren't enough). Saying goodbye to everyone you love has been probably the most difficult moment I've found myself into, especially as I don't know when I'll be seeing them. 

End of part one, the sad one.
Part two:

This is the half of the post in which I'm going to show the jubilant part of me, which I am pretty sure (see the positivity here!! ;-) ) will completely defeat the melancholic one in the next days. 

After all, I'm a few hours away from going to Cambridge (which is in the country with the language I love and I have always wanted to "explore") to try and live there for a while. I am aware I'm fulfilling one of my ambitions and I can't wait for everything to begin!

Of course, I need to be realistic as well: I know there are a few chances things aren't going to go well -after all, I am going there completely and utterly by myself, with no help at all-. I need to accept this and try to overcome any fear I might have in order to just live the whole thing as it should be lived, with joy, happiness and will to learn. Pretty much a kind of holiday which might help me growing up a bit ;-).

And being there alone doesn't mean I'm going to face the thing alone. I am so lucky to have such an amazing and caring bunch of people around me willing to stand my moaning and reassure me with the right words. Thanks to all of you!!! <3 :-)

Last but not least, I am not risking anything -except for some money eh ;-)-. Worst case scenario, I can always catch a plane and be back home in the blink of an eye! 

That's all folks! Hope to have many awesome things to write about in the close future! :-)

Good luck to me!!!!
