Ready to go

I spent yesterday afternoon and last night finishing up things that had gotten pushed to the back burner by finals. Mostly cleaning and making copies of documents and things like that.

I managed to fit everything that I'm taking into my pack (it's a hiking pack, so larger than a normal school bag), though the dog collars and leashes did pose somewhat of a problem.  Donna, the woman in charge of donations, sent 7 leashes, 12 collars, and a harness. All of that takes up a lot of space and weight, but I'm sure will be greatly appreciated. I just hope that they let me carry my pack on. I've seen people carry on rolling bags that were much larger than what I have, but you never know. 

It still hasn't completely sunk in yet that I am actually getting on a plane in 5 hours and traveling to a country that is so different from the one that I am most familiar with.  I'm really looking forward to it.
