Midnight Musings

With just under two weeks left before I leave for Dar, last night was the first night that I couldn't get to sleep because I was excited. Finally! A night without laying there with nerves keeping me awake. I've recently started communicating via email with Erin (roommate) and Heather (English), who are already there. (I'm late because my processing has taken longer; school started Aug. 23.) Their emails have really been helping me look forward to my new life. The most recent topics circle around housing and curriculum. Good stuff! Anyway, the building excitement kept me awake last night and I had to keep turning on the light and scribbling a list of things to do.
My midnight musings. Should have grabbed actually stationery, but oh well LOL

My mom is awesome, and she found a GREAT flight over. I'll leave LAX on Wednesday, Sept. 29 at almost 8 p.m. and arrive in Dar on Friday, Oct. 1 at 7 a.m. That's 25 hours of travel, baby! LOL It breaks down to a non-stop 10-hour flight fromn LA to Heathrow, a five-hour layover there, then a non-stop 10-hour flight from London to Dar. Yayyy.

OK, I better get to that growing list now.
