As the distance grew the tears flowed harder,I watched through the side view mirror as my hometown became a small dot and part of the past.My emotions were on a rollercoaster ride,the previous excitement and anxiety I felt now resembled sadness,fear and nostalgia.
I closed my eyes and tried to focus on the end result, on acheiving my dreams and asprirations,and making my parents proud along with the opportunities.I was swept up into my own world, nervousness creeped in as the what if's crowded my mind and time seemed to freeze as I zoned out of my surroundings.The voice of my uber driver saying we arrived brought me out of my dazed state.
I paid him and stepped out.
A few moments passed before I collected myself, and with my head held high and a smile plastered on my face I advanced to the door of the apartment building with all the confidence and reassurance I could muster,but deep down I wondered..
Was I ready for change?
