Leaving Tomorrow

I leave tomorrow!

I can't even believe that those words are real. But sure enough, my flight has been confirmed, my seat is booked, and my bags are (almost) packed.


Clothes everywhere!

Today has been a flurry of picking up last minute items, running last minute errands, and, of course, packing. I didn't start packing till this afternoon (typical), so I ran around all morning like a chicken with my head cut off, going by Walmart and the bank and the book store, to name a few.

Yes, that is a PillowPet. It was a gift from my brother for Christmas. No, it is not going to Hungary with me.
Thinking about leaving tomorrow, I'm not nervous really. Sure, thinking about it and realizing that I have no idea what I am getting myself into can make my stomach knot up a little. But as my daddy reminded me yesterday, God has called me to this for the summer, and not following His call would be way worse than anything I could think of. So I'm confident. And mostly thrilled.

I'm so excited! I have a longish layover tomorrow, and I'm hoping the airport has free Internet (it probably does...I don't know why it wouldn't), so I can post again then.
