So, tonight was officially my last shift at work!  How crazy is that.  I have had some crazy days at work but I can honestly say that I will miss all the crazies I work with, especially the Kitchen Crew.  Watched Wall-E with Heidi tonight, it was cute, I liked it.  In 3 days I will be getting on a plane and flying to Ghana.  I'm pretty excited, and freaking out and all of everything at once.  I have to go to Wal-Mart, tonight or tomorrow even though I hate it.  There are things I need to buy and it's the most convenient place to get everything all at once.  My friends are having a farewell party for me tomorrow.  Pretty cool I guess, but I don't like being the center of attention.  It is nice to know that I will get to see people before I leave though. 
I kind of can't believe that I'm actually going to Ghana next week.  I mean, for 6 months!  It is very very exciting and scary.  If you know me, then you know that I do not like admitting if something scares me.  But honestly, I'm a little scared.  Just because I've never done anything like this before.  I still feel like I have a lot to do before I go, but I think most of it is just packing & making sure I have everything I need.  And in reality, if there's anything that I forget, then I more than likely can live without if for 6 months.  I'm not totally sure that it has set in that this time next week I'll be on another continent.  when I went this summer, I didn't believe I was going until I was THERE.  I'm very apprehensive about traveling alone, I've always been in a group when I've flown before.  As independent as I like to be, travel is one thing I've only done in groups.  I'm sure it will be ok.  I have a feeling I'm going to learn so much more, the importance of prayer.  I have no idea how this trip is going to change me, but I'm fairly certain it will change me.  We shall see!
