10 days!

The countdown continues! Only 10 days until I leave. 10 days! I thought I told myself that I would start packing and organizing things two weeks before I leave.. yeah right. Like I actually did that. If my bro's wedding wasn't two days before I leave I think I would just wait until then to pack, but considering that I'll be unavailable that day, I should get a move on. I really need to learn to kick my own butt so I can get more things accomplished when I say I want them done. Well folks, I know you're holding your breath waiting for me to leave. That could be a good thing because you're excited to see pictures, or it could be bad meaning that you can't wait until I get out of here. Hey now, that's not nice. :) Since the last post, not a whole lot new has happened. I've continued to work at the country club and spend a lot of time with my family, which is always nice. My dress is almost done for the wedding, just a few more adjustments and then we'll be good to go. And now, I've gotten a little more informed about Brazil and got a small refresher on Portuguese thanks to some movies I got from the library and some of my old Portuguese books from classes I took. Man, I hope they help. Though, I'm still expecting complete confusion and astonishment when I arrive. I know I can't learn enough to fully prepare me, but I figure every bit helps. Alright fans, that's all for now.
