I should be studying

So I really should be studying for finals right now, but I need a break and I haven't updated in a while so here we go. One month from today I will be in-route (is that a word) to Africa. I don't think I've actually quite grasped the fact that I will be on the other side of the world living in a rural village without electricity or running water. I don't think that it will actually hit me until I'm there. To say that I'm excited and nervous would be an understatement. I think I'm more nervous about flying by myself, since this will be the first time, then I am about actually being in another country.

Everything is pretty much set now, all the shots are done, the plane tickets taken care of just some last minute shopping and then I'm off. Crazy. I hope my suitcase doesn't weigh too much haha.

I did some fundraising last weekend and the response I got was overwhelming I was not expecting so many donations and my thanks go out to all the people of St. Mary's church in Baldwinsville NY for your generosity. I raised over $1000 that will go to the people of Uganda. So thank you everyone for your undying support and encouragement I wish I could take you all with me so you can see first hand what your support is doing.

Okay that's enough procrastinating for now, I have three finals to study for and it's 11:02pm it's time to get crackin'. Okay signing off for now, stay tuned for I might have some freaking out posts as the date gets closer I'm sure you all will find them amusing. Byes~
