Thanks to Katie Bor for inspiring me to start this little cyber-hole up again. It's unfortunate that I couldn't come up with the idea myself - I AM leaving the country, after all, and it seems like a good idea to document my travels.
In addition, the Benjamin A. Gilman scholarship I just had the fortune of receiving requires me to do some kind of project involving my study abroad experience. I wonder if a blog will suffice?
I'm spending this week making the rounds, trying to cram in visits with the multitude of people I have to spend ungodly amounts of time with because they're convinced I'm not going to come back alive.
Visiting is a 24/7 job.
I'm also gathering up the last of my trip necessities: an international plug adapter, gifts for my host family, and the Skype screennames of select individuals.
That doesn't leave much time for fantasizing, but when I really want to sit down and get all excited and have a good daydream, I just bust out my scarves. They're beautiful. Beautiful and flowy and so perfectly appropriate for a summer in Amman, Jordan that I can hardly contain myself. But, I must contain myself, because discussion of my journey is sort of a somber topic for others in my home.
6 Days!!! =) =) =) =) =)
