nine days

Shalom blogsphere!! It's been a while- but it feels good to be back (if you didn't keep up with my Costa Rica blog you have got some serious catching up to do http://www.princesssarahmae.blogspot.com )! In nine days I will be embarking upon my next great adventure: serving as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Cameroon on the west coast of Africa for 27 months. Yesterday my wonderful mother threw me a fabulous going-away party so that all of my friends and family could come, wish me well, and shower me with gifts (just kidding.. but really. that's wassup.). It was truly amazing to be physically surrounded by so much love and support. I needed those three hours of hugs, affirmations and votes of confidence. Thank you again to everyone who came out to send me off- I am so blessed to have all of you beautiful people in my life.

So nine days... that's not much time considering I still haven't packed and am scheduled to take the GRE on Thursday (and haven't studied for it in two weeks) AND have a hot date with the love of my life Athens, Georgia on Saturday night. Oh and I'm going to try to get an appointment to chop off all of my hair tomorrow... I'll just cut out the frivolities like exercising and sleeping for the time being, so I can squeeze in more qt with my peeps, more glasses of red wine and most importantly more cheese consumption.

Ciao for now.
