Getting Ready

Ugh, packing for a year is ridiculous. It may sound hard, and I'm here to confirm that it is. You have to think about what you'll need in 3 months compared to just tomorrow. To get the full picture take a trip to another country for a year and find out. Anyway, my flight leaves at 6:25 pm this Saturday and I am bring 2 suitcases and 2 carry ons, that should be enough right? I just bought a new battery for my laptop today and i hope its here by Friday at least. I don't exactly know what to right about before i go, cause when i leave ill have much to talk about, but for now I'm just here. One thing that's weird is that people keep asking me," are you nervous? are you nervous? did he say no, he must of meant yes cause we only asked him twice if he's nervous." When i signed up for this back in November i thought the whole thing through and took every little thing into consideration so I wouldn't have second thoughts as the time got closer. Now in doing that i eliminated the chance to get nervous. So some things that i am looking forward to are the chance to be in an area where no one understands me and i have to learn Italian to survive. Does that sound strange? Well as i said I've thought about this alot. The food should be amazing. Anyway, i would like to say that rotary is one of the best organizations that i have come across and I can't wait to be part of their ranks later on in life. For example, i went to a weekend meeting to raise money and i contributed in the saving of over 10,000 lives.... i teared up. If you know me i don't get emotional over much. Well I will be putting up new posts in the future and I hope to get some good comments on this.
