17 days

Time has flown by, I was not expecting for this last month to go so fast, but it has. I can not even put into words how I'm feeling right now. I'm nervous out of my mind about the actual traveling part. Not about being in Africa, but about the flight. 34 hours of travel, that's how long it is going to take for me to get to Entebbe, Uganda. And I have never traveled by myself on a plane. But it will be okay, everything will be fine. I just have to think about what I will be doing when I get to Africa.

I really cannot wait to be in Africa; I will be in the village of Bugabula. I'm not exactly sure what my responsibilties are going to be but I am ready to work as hard as I can at whatever it is I am assigned too. I know that I can only do so much, but I want to do that to the best of my ability. I just want to be inspiring to others, and make a difference in someone's life, no matter how small that difference is. It is my dream, my ambition, my calling in life, this is what I am meant to do.

17 days 16 hours and 45 minutes until I leave......but who's counting?
