waiting game

I realized that since submitting the application to Ross University, it has been nothing but a waiting game.
Waiting on results of my application from the admissions were the longest 4 weeks of my life. Now I have been accepted and waiting on my documents to arrive. It is just pure stress. I know my life is going to change drastically once I land on the island, but until Jan, it's all about getting ready to start my life at St. Kitts.
I had (or still in it) my first wave of depressing moments. I enjoyed the honeymoon stage; researching about living on the island, reading through blogs of vet student who are/were there, and just imagining how FUN it would be to live in the Caribbean island.
Then, reality hits.
I am about to enter not only vet school, but an accelerated vet school.
My mid-semester break is only ONE day and apparently there is a week called "hell week" where students have 4 test in one week and another test on the following Monday.
I can tell you how much I slacked off as a student as an undergrad, so I can see how much of my "hard-work" is going to pay off.
Yet, I am fully aware in my head, that once I get there, I will be so overwhelmed and excited that I would not have the time to be depressed or stressed out...which means I just have too much time in my hands right now!!!!!
I don't expect the documents to arrive this week. It's likely it will arrive sometime next week, so till then, I need to keep myself occupied with work or something, otherwise I am and will drive my husband insane.

Speaking of my husband, I cannot thank him enough for putting up with my life drama.
I know it is not easy for him to leave Japan because he loves it so much. I am just really glad and excited about going to the Caribbean with him!!!
