Three days. That's all I've got. I'm sitting on my bed, looking at my mess of a room, and thinking about all the things I have yet to do before I leave for Almuñécar, Spain. Wow. To be honest, I never thought this day would come. Four years ago when I was just a "baby freshman", I had full intentions of studying abroad at some point during my college career. I wasn't an Elementary Education major back then and I had no idea that student-teaching was something that could be done overseas. Well, it didn't take me long to discover this after switching my major, and I can tell you that I've had my eye on Spain from the very start. Why? Simple: I'm minoring in Spanish and I want a chance to become more fluent (not to mention that this whole experience will look great on a resume).
So here I am, three days away from a dream that I've been talking about for years. Is this really happening?
Despite all of the excitement and disbelief, I have to admit that I'm stressed. Or maybe overwhelmed is a better word. There is a lot to be done these next three days, and I have a feeling that Kelly is going to be going into "mission mode". And yes, I did just refer to myself in the third person. Well, at least I can cross "start a blog" off my list of things to do, right?
