After a long day of Professional Development in Grand Rapids, I received an e-mail from Delta Airlines saying that it was "time to check-in" for my flight! I looked at it in disbelief. The long awaited trip is finally here. Even better, when my dad got home from work he created a handy currency converter for me! It has all started feeling very real today, though I don't think I will believe it completely until I am sitting on the plane!
I finally finished packing my bags, thanks to some friends advice and firm directions:), now I am just hoping that I can get some sleep. A lot of people have been asking me if I'm scared or nervous. Well yes I am definitely a little aprehensive about going on this trip-after all I am going to Africa! There are a lot of unknowns such as what grade I'll be student teaching in, how the whole living situation will pan out, etc. I am not freaking out though by any means, even my mom says, its not like I'm going to the moon, and two months will go by very quickly.
Thanks to everyone who gave me a call today/wrote me on facebook wishing me safe travels!
The next time you hear from me, I'll be either in an airport or in SOUTH AFRICA!
