Thoughts Before Leaving

I can't believe I'll be leaving the US for India in less than 48 hours. There's still so much left to do! I was able to get in contact with the ELL office of Metro Nashville Public Schools and the woman I was referred to was very helpful. She gave me several workbooks which have proven to be the most helpful in their program.

I don't think I'll post again until I'm settled in Mungeli. Probably on the 27th or possibly later. I'm trying not to think about the trip too much, because then I start worrying. I've never done anything like this before. Even though I've tried hard to prepare myself, it will still be difficult; especially being away from my friends and family.

I don't really know what to expect once I'm there, so I'm trying to go in with no preconceived notions or ideas. That way I can truly absorb everything around me and experience life in India to the fullest extent possible.
