Two weeks to go

So there’s only two weeks to go before I leave and Allen and I are freakishly trying to gather our things together. He’s getting ready to embark on more interviews for School, and the hustle continues for me back home. I’ve got 1 million things on my to-do list still. For example, I must research international banks for the lowest transaction fees while I’m abroad, I have to get some visas still, I need to make photocopies of my passport and many other documents, and organize all of my tickets and itinerary into special envelopes. Then there’s the test pack to make sure all of my stuff will fit into the small 45 L backpack I’ve purchased. It’s no easy task, believe me, and I am very worried.

I anticipate that this next two weeks will probably be the most stressful of my life or something close to that, but I’m excited and I know that all in all, if things don’t get done, I’ll probably survive.

FYI I will be creating most of my blog posts with an iphone app on the called Dragon. It’s a dictation software that translates what I say into text. So if these things don’t read as well-written as you know I can normally write, that’s why. It’s very strange talking my thoughts into a little device and then trying to edit them into something readable. But a laptop wouldn’t fit in my bag…
