I need more time...

I leave 3 weeks from today for what will probably turn out to be the best year in my life. But right now, i'm feeling a lot of things other than excitement. I have an awesome job nannying that is supplying me with a steady cash flow and I am having the most amazing summer with all of my friends. I realize that everyone else is soon to be leaving for their own college adventures, but right now I just feel so content with where I am. After talking to other exchange students I have sadly learned that things rarely return to how they were upon return from a year abroad. and maybe i'll change for the better, but all i can think right now is that I don't want anything to change!
i know i'm probably over-thinking it, and once I land in Switzerland I will be so insanely happy, but I'm currently having a hard time adjusting :(
