Having jitters is by far an understatement when it comes to flying across the country 1,908 miles away from home. I guess, it all comes down to mentally preparing oneself many months ago, but, it doesn't change the fact that no matter how hard you try to prepare yourself mentally and emotionally, it'll all comes down to you crying like a river especially when it is time for you to depart and say your temporary adieus to your family. I know, I did and I missed them the instant they were gone from my sight. I still do.
