WOAH!
I can't believe I am leaving tomorrow!??!
This is almost unreal, that in only a few days, I'll be standing in INDIA. My departure is most definitely bitter sweet because I am missing everyone's graduations but I will also be getting started with the experience of my life!
I admit that I'm really nervous and almost feel unprepared for this trip in many, many ways. But it was meant to be, so I will see everyone on the other side, for sure. (:
I am bringing my lap top in order to keep everyone posted on what's going on and the progress of the cycle (aka whether I am surviving physicall! HAHA!...bad joke...yeah?), so I will try to update every time I get Internet service.
Donations and sponsorships are still being accepted, everyone! I will update on how much more I have to go to reach my goal by tonight! So stay tuned!
Also! Here's a link to an article on the ride written by a Canadian journalist who I'll get to meet in India!

Okay, now....back to the last few paragraphs of my LAST FINAL PAPER FOR THE YEAR....

I Am Alive...I Think?
13 Days.
ONLY 13 DAYS.
A part of me feels like I am not ready for this trip...but I wouldn't have come this far if I wasn't meant for it, right?
RIGHT!
Anyways, I apologize for not having updated my blog in TOO LONG. I have been very stressed with school and post-India plans and things are not getting better. Hopefully things will lighten up once I finish up with school work!
I have a LOOOOOONG list of shout outs that I want to give..but they will have to wait till my next post. But for now: THANK YOU SO MUCH TO THOSE WHO HAVE GENEROUSLY GIVEN ME WHATEVER THEY COULD DURING THESE RIDICULOUSLY TOUGH TIMES.
Honestly, I tear up every time I receive a donation. It is nice to know that there are people who care about me and care about the cause. <3
Okay, friends! I am nearly up to the $1,000 mark with raising funds! YAY!!!! But a LOT more to go! CONTINUE TO SPREAD THE WORD!!!
---
Yesterday, I started on pills for Typhoid Fever and today I received two shots for immunizations. OUCH and ughh....I've definitely been feeling the side effects.
*NAUSEOUS*
I promise to update more before I leave!

In Regards to Where Donations Go!
Hi, again, everyone!
I want to make sure that everyone knows where their sponsorship donations are going!
My first entry highlights exactly where donations go, but I forgot to add in that donations will also go to visa fees as well as vaccination fees as both can be pricy!
