Naw gurl! Don't trip. Its okay that you're a little nervous or worried. Truthfully, I'm a little nervous too, but you'll get over it once we get there and get in our rooms, it'll be fine. Hope 2 c u there! Later . . . . .

Erin is right.....it's normal to feel excited and then a little nervous before you head out to school. Before I started my freshman year, I was so ready to leave I could've exploded. Until it started to get closer and then I got nervous about what it would be like in a new area. I didn't know anyone so would I be spending my time alone? Would my roommate and I get along? Little things that most folks worry about. But when you get there and your folks go away (granted they travel with you), you'll start to feel great about being where you are and embracing the new experience. Good luck to you and enjoy your freshman year.
