Getting Ready!

March 6th, 2009

To be honest, I'm not very nervous about traveling out of the country and being far away from home. The furthest I've ever been from my parents was when I went to visit my aunt in New Jersey for a week. I will not deny the fact that I was a little homesick but it wasn't unbearable. I think it'll be the same for this trip. I'm confident that I'll have a lot of fun because I get along really well with everyone else going on the trip. The only thing I'm worried about is speaking Spanish and meeting my Costa Rican pen pal (if we ever get them).

I'm planning on looking over my Spanish notes to familiarize myself with the language. Other than that, there really isn't anything I can do to prepare myself for this trip besides packing. What I'm looking forward to the most on this trip is playing soccer with the Costa Ricans!
