T-1.5 hours

All right everybody, here it is. I'm leaving in an hour and half for JFK. That means 2 AM for those of you who haven't checked the time stamp. No need for sleeping. Just one loooong shower and hopefully an episode or two of some choice television.
Everything is feeling real now. I got my yellow fever vaccine and had 7 hours of orientation today. I also almost fell asleep standing up. Yaaayy. I don't really have too much to say at the moment, this is just the ultimate countdown.

I do want to extend a very sincere thank you to my family and friends. Grandma and Grandpa, Sally, Emily, Laura, Mom, and Dad; you've all been so supportive and very generous with dinners and gifts and I really, really appreciate it. I have an amazing family and I will miss you all dearly. Hopefully I'll see you all soon, maybe for Christmas, but in the meantime I'll write you letters! :-)
Taylor, Kimi, Dan, Leah, Lexy, Mike, Karly, Blair, Dani B, Ellie, Mae, and Laura; thank you all so much. You've all been there for me and I know that I can count on every one of you to have my back. I love you and you're wonderful friends that I feel so, so lucky to have. Please write to me, I will write you back I promise.

Well, off to have my last hot and pressurized shower. And then my next big adventure begins!!!!

I love you
Thank you
