5 Days To Go!

So today is the 25th which means I leave in just 5 days! Ahhhhh! I'm starting to get really nervous about this whole thing (but excited too) I've created this blog because I know that a lot of relatives are just as excited about this trip as I am and I figured that some of you might like to be able to read up on what I'm doing and look at pictures while I'm in Ireland (as apposed to when I get back)I will do my best to update this everyday. It'll be easier than emailing everybody although I will still try to do that once in a while. It will also be a way for me to remember my trip, kind of like a journal. Anyway because there are only 5 more days until I leave the country both mum and I am starting to get a little stressed. Me, because I still have to finish all of the homework I'm supposed to do before I get to Ireland and because I have one last exam (English) on Monday to worry about. Mum, because I haven't started packing yet and because I still need a rain coat, a backpack and various other items. I'm almost ready though. Yesterday we put together a bathroom bag and made some lists. And I only have 3 chapters left in A Star Called Henry, my independent novel study book. On my list of things to do today is read chapter 10 and summarize it, start making piles of clothes I want to take with me and get a binder ready with paper and dividers and that sort of thing. Tomorrow will be backpack/coat shopping day. Alright well I've gone on long enough for today so I'm going to stop writing now and go do something useful. The next time I post on here I might be in Ireland! Ahhhh!
