One day!

I do not have very high hopes for this blog. I am the worst at writing about my own experiences and have a pathetically small vocabulary when it comes to adjectives. I generally describe everything as "awesome" unless they are truly special, in which case I might break out an "amazing" or "surreal" or something. I am sure my mom will be the only person to even keep up with this and she does not care how pathetic my vocabulary is as long as I am putting up pictures (with me in them). As for everyone else, don't expect much!

Anyway-I leave for Heredia, Costa Rica tomorrow at 10:20 am. I have fit four months of life into one heavy giant suitcase and am ready to go by all material standards but mentally am freakin out a little! That was a lie because I'm freakin out a lot! But that is a good thing because it is important to do things that make me uncomfortable and going into a country that I know next to nothing about feels really uncomfortable which means it must be the right decision (unless it's the wrong decision!) (just kidding of course it's the right decision!) (I hope!)

What I hope you will see in this blog over the next four months are updates and pictures of me seeing many beautiful places and meeting many wonderful people and immersing myself into the language and culture of Costa Rica (unless of course I don't update the blog which is likely).

For now...here is my calendar of events as planned by USAC, my study abroad program. I expect to fill in all of the unplanned weekends with lots and lots of traveling of my own! All traveling will be safe so do not worry about me! (cough cough Mom Dad & Grandma)

Adios for now! 

ps I packed some unnecessary things like curry powder (sike that's totally necessary)
