12 days!

There are 12 more days until I arrive in Germany. 9 more until I drive to DC for my gateway orientation. After all of the complaining I did about how slow time was passing, this summer actually did go by very quickly. Its actually blowing my mind how fast my departure date is approaching (blowing my mind in a really good way).

My last few days in Baltimore will be spent hanging out with my family and friends before I leave, as well as making sure I have the last few things I need. I am going to visit my school for a few hours on Friday, then I have my going away party on Saturday, and on Tuesday my parents are driving me down to DC to drop me off at orientation.  

Before I left, I wanted to set up a schedule for my blog. I know if I don't give myself a specific time to post I will never do it (I'm not saying I'm lazy, but I'm lazy). So, I've decided to update my blog every Sunday night, letting everyone know what I did that week, as well as just talking about what my experiences are, both with Germany and exchange. Hopefully there will also be some sort of photo element, but my technological skills are lacking so we'll see about that. I'll probably update it more in the beginning because I'll be doing a lot of new stuff, and I will forget about it sometimes as life in Germany becomes more normal, but basically I'm hoping there will be new posts every Sunday. 

Good luck to everyone starting school tomorrow (not me haha) and I'm sure I'll be posting again soon!
