6 weeks

Every time I think of Africa, my mind is taking back to all my friends I have to say goodbye to for 6 weeks. Those 6 weeks are going to be so different for me than what my friends are experiencing at home, and there will never be a good way to stay in touch or keep updated on what they are doing for those 6 weeks.

6 weeks. In that short time a lot could happen. In those 6 weeks, my friends will finish classes, move and get ready to start a new semester. I will be traveling and teaching students.

When I get back, everything that I left 6 weeks prior will be so different. My first semester in the COE will be over, my lease will end on my apartment and we will be getting the keys to our house we're renting.

In those short 6 weeks, Easter will come, birthdays will be celebrated and I will be 1,000s of miles away from home. But how could I pass up an amazing 6 week opportunity. I would never let myself get over it if I passed this up.

Now only 6 weeks to go!
