2 more days...

So I leave for Kolkata on Friday. I'm beginning to freak out a little. I've never been very good with change, so its difficult sometimes to take big steps like this. I keep reminding myself that even though I have no idea what my 90 days in India will hold, God does, down to the smallest detail. And that's a comforting thought. So meanwhile I try to take everything one day at a time, enjoying my time with everyone while I'm still here, and try not to think about the really long plane ride coming up. Still definitely think that's going to be the worst part. I also keep reminding myself that when I think about it, really, there's nowhere else I'd rather be going. Definitely don't want to still be in PA working at Starbucks! I know that this is where I'm supposed to be, and things are working out a lot better than I imagined. Now if only I can get a plane ticket home....

18 Days!!

So I still have a little over two weeks before I leave for India. Plenty of time to stress about plane tickets, packing and malaria. For now I am just enjoying my vacation and trying not to think too much about the hazy question marks that hang over the next three months. Just thought I would cover all my bases with communication so I don't fall off the face of the earth once I leave. I'm sure I'll have much more to say in the coming weeks...
