Departure

So I leave tomorrow and I am not going to lie, the anticipation is eating me away. But, at the same time, I'm freaking out!! I had to repack my suitcase about 4 different times now and I cannot wait until I am there. They told us that we should only pack as if we were staying for a week's vacation.....I didn't see how that was anywhere near possible, considering we are staying there for almost 4 months haha. However, I have been taking clothes out left and right because I figure its going to be pretty cool to buy clothes while I'm there. My flight leaves O'Hare at 4 tomorrow, then I have a 3 hour lay-over in Amsterdam, then by 12:40 pm on Wednesday (which will be 7am in America) I will be in ITALY! The thought of being in a different country is amazing. I couldn't have been luckier to get this opportunity and I look forward to experiencing all the country has to offer. While I really wish I could be back at school going to classes and partying with my ISU friends, this is going to be so damn fun/crazy/interesting/life-changing. Well, I will keep posting to this throughout the trip.
