Predicting the Future

I've been told I have a knack for predicting the future. I've foretold weddings, foreseen relationships and even predicted the accurate number of jelly beans in a jar. I'm not sure if it's an uncanny sense of intuition or just luck in a game of guesses.

However, when it comes to this trip, I can't seem to see the future.

Will I come home?: Logistically, I have to. Long-term, not sure.

Will I stay in touch?: I sure hope so!

How will my life change as a result of this trip: Anyone's guess.

So in the spirit of trying to predict the future and having fun, I have consulted my crystal ball about my trip. It will be interesting to see if these things ring true once I've returned...
