There's a month until we leave for Africa. Wow how did that come so fast! In so many ways I'm so excited! I'm also nervous, however. It's scary going to somewhere where you don't know anybody or anything. Away from everything I've known for my whole life. I know that if I did not take this opportunity, I would regret it for the rest of my life.

I've been thinking a lot about my future lately. I don't know 100% sure what I want to do with my life yet.  I'm going to college for education, but there are so many other things I want to accomplish with my life also. So right now I'm in a spot where the future could hold anything... that's kind of exciting!

Wow I still can't believe there is only one month!
