Packing, Packing, Packing

Packing is the worst. I laid out everything that I wanted to bring. And then had to cut it in half. I guess that's what you have to do when you're only allowed to check one bag. Eventually I finished packing, my bag closed (barely), and now I'm ready to roll. Anything I forgot, I'll have to buy.

My parents and I are leaving Etna around 8am tomorrow. I have to run a few errands on campus and then we're off to NYC. I'm flying out of JFK with two girls on my trip. Our flight departs at 5:30pm and we'll arrive in Barcelona at 6:15am local time. 

Next post will be from other side of the pond!

Welcome!

Hi Friends! Welcome to my blog!

It's hard to think about right now, (oh hey finals week) but I'm headed off to Spain in less than 2 weeks! I thought I should get the blog up and running before I go. My to-do list of things to take care of before I go to Spain is enormous, but high up there is getting a camera so I can post pictures on here. Hopefully I'll be posting frequently, so check back often for updates on my life abroad!

Good luck to everyone taking exams this week :)

PS: here's a cool vid to see what I'm getting myself into -  "Barcelona - 10 Things You Need To Know"
