tres días antes.....

It's Saturday morning.

Tuesday (TUESDAY!!) I will be leaving for Cochabamba, Bolivia, and as this knowledge sinks in, I am beginning to feel a number new emotions, both surprising and somewhat uninvited :P. Prior this point, I'd been feeling mostly: 
1. completely unhinged following my semester from hell, & rather heartbroken
2. excited to be in Gainesville, and
3. the rest of the normal things one feels when living their "normal" life (if this concept even exists... but I digress). 

Now, however, as I begin to realize that in just a few days I'll be embarking upon a journey that I know almost nothing about, I'm starting to feel a bit nervous.

Well.... 

very nervous. Although I think this may primarily stem from anxiety over my having not read ANY of the books I'm supposed to read before I leave. I should probably get on that... I really want to be a better student this semester than I normally am, which means that I should start changing my habits ahorita. 

So off to the land of Bolivian globalization, indigenous struggles, and pages upon pages of facts that no one really needed to know about (I'm kidding.... 

I hope :P).
