Dear family and friends,
I want to start by saying "Thank you!". By simply reading this, I know that you care for me and are hoping the best for me on my adventure! I want to give you a fair warning, I'm not an expert blogger/writer. My blogs may be crazy, but I hope reading it is fun because I want to share my experiences with all of you! On that note, I hope to include photos so you can truly see what I'm going through (even if that means it's a photo with a quote). :)
Today, I wanted to share with you my excitement and nervousness!! I leave for Costa Rica in exactly three weeks! It feels so surreal to be in this position. I have been wanting to go since freshman year, but now that it's here, I don't feel ready...(hence the quote). That being said, I am SO EXCITED to experience the culture and nature of the beautiful country. I have to keep reminding myself that even if everything else doesn't go right, I will still the chance to see so many things that I haven't before. If I just keep thinking like that, I will have nothing to be scared of. And since "no one else can walk it for [me]", I'll have to dive in head first. :)
Until I leave, I will be posting things similar to this: my fears, my joys, ideas, what I'm going to bring, etc. After, I plan to keep you as up to date as I can while still staying on top of school work and simply enjoying my time in a brand new place!
P.S. Happy birthday, Mom!!
