Time flies...

Umm, yeah. So, as of right now, there are 17 days left until my departure date. 17 DAYS!!!! Wow! Summer has been flying by so fast, and I can't believe that it is almost time to leave for Germany.

Since, as you can see, this has snuck up on me, you shouldn't be surprised to hear that I don't feel that I am in any way, shape, or form ready for this trip. I need to knuckle down and really start learning some basic German phrases. I need to start my packing list (for those of you who read the Japan blog, you know that I am way behind on this - I could have easily packed for Japan about four months before I left). A pressing issue for me is to get things ready for the start of school, as I will be returning home two days before the start of the academic year. I also need to finish things up for a graduate course that I took this summer. Suddenly my summer of fun has turned into a summer of work! AAAAAHHHHH!!!! But, I know it will all be worth it in the end!

I am excited about meeting my fellow travelers and exploring Germany!
