Now that we are just two days away from leaving I’m beginning to get really excited for the trip. I think that this morning’s lesson in power tools was really what finally made me truly excited and has left me itching to leave. Through all the articles and books we’ve read as well as the movies we watched I feel like I’m prepared as much as one can be for what we’re going to experience. The one thing that I’m still a bit worried about is the slower pace of life that we will have to get used to. I’m so used to running around from one meeting to class to practice (even this week…) that I think it’ll be a big adjustment for me. I’m up for the challenge though and it’ll probably be good for me to slow down and take some time to breathe. Despite my worries, I am beyond excited to just get down to New Orleans!
