3.5 days left to prepare

Yup, in three and a half days I will be flying over the U.S., Canada, the Atlantic, the UK and other random countries that may be in the way... perhaps even Greenland. It will be 5 weeks until I return home once again. Of course there are certain hopes and wants that I have for this time in the Netherlands, as well as reservations.

Here is the basic outline of my visit:
June 16- fly out
June 17- land
June 20- start program
July 11- finish program
July 22- fly back
July 23- land

During this time I will be spending money, rather then earning/saving it, I will be out of verbal communication with the people I love and care about and have limited Internet communication, I will be working on bettering my language skills, I will be spending a day in Paris and a weekend in London as well as travelling all over the Netherlands, I will be spending time with family I never get to see and I will be taking a ton of pictures, thanks to my new camera.

But to get to that point, I have a lot of things I need to do here, and very little time to do it in. Also very little memory to retain all of those items on my list. Oh yes...

Also, my family is currently in Canada, so I won't be able to get some of the things that I really need until the day before I go. But oh well, it is all in God's hands, I just need to remember to take advantage of my spare time and get things done.

Well, I hope all of you readers out there are doing well and enjoying summer weather (which for some reason doesn't want to appear here...) So until the next time... live long and prosper.
