Ready to go!!

Welp, packed the bags, got the hair cut, renewed the passport, bought the adapters, charged the camera (and I-Pod). . . I think I'm finally ready to go! My flight leaves tomorrow from O'Hare at 2:00pm, then I make a quick visit to lovely Philadelphia and arrive in Barcelona at 8:35am local time on Tuesday. Should be a fun day. In all seriousness I can't wait to get there and get settled so I can get out into the city and see the sights. I will have to buy a prepaid cell phone once I land so that I can call my anxious parents and let them know that my plane didn't get blown up by a volcano over the Atlantic, but then I'm free as a bird. My first week there will be mostly orientation, which consists of guided tours of the city so we can get a sense of the place and team-building exercises with the other students and instructors (any guesses as to what those might entail?). Then my classes start. . . Liz and Jake I hope you are reading this because these will be the first and only summer classes I will take and I still plan on graduating in 4 years. I'm afraid I don't have that much more to write about right now, since I am currently in bed in Saint Charles, but I promise to update as much as I can. That's all for now.
