Last night I had my best friends over for a going away dinner thing. It was really spontaneous, but ended up being a lot of fun. We ate and talked for hours with my parents. Everyone kept stressing to me that they worry about my safety and that sometimes I am too trusting of people in general, and should exercise more caution while I am away. Everything said was well noted, and I really will try to be less trusting/naive.. Though it really is in my nature to think the best of people.
Today the nerves are really setting in. I woke up feeling weird and stressed. Then I was actually able to swallow my malaria pill, but I took it on a very empty stomach so I got really sick and ended up throwing it up :( I'm getting nervous that this is going to be a problem and I wont be fully protected because I can't keep the medicine down. Hopefully when I am on the plane i wont experience the upset stomach.. that could be an issue.
I got my hair cut. It only happens maybe three times a year so it really needed it. Now I have what seems like a million last minute things to take care of and no energy to make it happen. This time tomorrow I will be almost to Phoenix, AZ for Orientation. Then hopefully the excitement will carry me through the weekend and I wont be completely run down when we get there.
I just got exciting news talking to Charith, who works with FFH. She said we will be getting a hotel in England for our 16hr layover!! That means I will get to see London! Yay!
Prayers for some peace and calmed nerves would be handy right now.
