Tom's counting down until departure

YESSSSSSSSSSS.  This was pretty much my reaction when hearing that I got into the Cape Town study abroad program.  This is something that I have been looking forward to for a long time and it was a good feeling to get into the program.  The past couple weeks have been stressful and exciting at the same time.  I’ve really enjoyed beginning to get to know the entire group.  However, it has made me realize that I’m even worse than I thought at remembering names, and I thought I was bad to begin with.  Everyone seems really nice and I couldn’t think of a group of people I would rather go on an excursion to South Africa with.  On the other side of the token it has been stressful getting all of my stuff together to make sure that when I touch down in Cape Town they will actually let me leave the airport, what a bummer it would be if they didn’t.  However, it’s not half as bad as I thought it would be and these are tasks that I would gladly take on; the pay off is definitely worth it.  I have already started counting down and departure day cannot come soon enough.  Right now I’m trying to think of what the first thing I’m going to do when I get to Cape Town is going to be.  Truthfully, I have no idea.  There are just too many things I want to do.

Until Next Time,
Tom
