So I am officially freaking out! I leave in less than 24 hours and I still have to pack all my clothes! I have all the clothes I want but i have to narrow it down, which is extremely hard. Time felt like it just completely flew by and what was a month until leaving is now only a few hours!!! Packing for winter when its 90 degrees is a whole lot harder than it may seem. But I have to keep telling myself that I'm not going to the middle of nowhere and they do have stores in France, so if I forget something I wont be left stranded.
I'm getting so nervous, but I know that this is going to be an amazing experience. I can't imagine being away for 6 months in a completely different country but I'm pretty sure that I will never regret going. Everything will be new and very European, which will be a nice change from the the America that I have been in my entire life. That reminds me I applied to get an absentee ballot sent to me in France, because there's no way I'm not voting in this election!! For those of you who aren't registered, go out there and do it!! No matter what your affiliation get your voice and vote out there! I'm going to be sporting my Obama shirt in Europe :).
Well the next time I put a post up I will be in Europe, which is still pretty hard to believe. I'll start posting all my adventures and stories and don't worry I bought a memory card for my camera with like a thousand pictures I can take so I will be posting them up as they come. Ok well everyone wish me luck!!!
Au revoir pour maintainent!!
