A Month Until Departure

So I created this (got the idea from Alexis - I loved reading about her time in Italy) in hopes of keeping everyone back in the states informed of my time abroad. I will be leaving February 7th and returning May 29th. 4 months. WOW. I can't believe that I already leave in a month. It still doesn't feel real. I keep thinking that I will just go back to Austin for school, BUT I won't be. I'm just working for now until I leave to try to earn some money for my trip - We all know how expensive it gets.

To do list:
1. Get scholarship money

2. Get another loan

3. Buy some jeans and a jacket - obviously I'm going to need one since it'll be anywhere from 10- 50 degrees. Some skiing will take place :)

4. Figure out how I'm going to get/use money (credit card, traveler's checks, etc)

5. Think about what to pack

6. PACK - haha

I'm sure there is a lot more to do, but for now that's all I can think of to write.

You will be fine, I promise. Everything will calm down once you get settled in. Just think one year ago today I left for Italia. :)
