Little Things I Worry About
Flight Mishaps: A delayed take-off. Missing my connecting flight. Snaking queues at immigration. Lost luggage. Every traveller's nightmare.
Resulting Homelessness: Arriving late at Pollock Halls, with no one around to help me check into my room.
The Cold: and subsequent cold-weather ailments and afflictions. I dread raw cheeks and cracked, sore lips.
Transporting Luggage: Lugging x number of suitcases/bags around on a bleak winter's night is not an inviting prospect.
Things I'm Looking Forward to
The Local Grub: It may have been disparaged as an 'inflated sheep's bladder' by the critics, but hey, one must try Haggis when in Scotland and finish it off with a dram!
Meeting New People: The whole point of an exchange.
The Scottish Accent: Believe it or not. I haven't decided what to think about the Scottish accent. It ranges from deliciously pleasant to downright unintelligible. I shall form an opinion when I get there and acclimitize to it.
The Sights and Sounds: Edinburgh, Scotland and yes, Europe are waiting to be explored!
My suitcase is filling up. I leave in nine days.
