As I write I'm lying in bed at a Marriott hotel in Boston. After packing the last of my belongings, my parents and I drove down here for the night. We checked in and I finished my Fiji reading assignments (yessss) and then we went out to eat at a restaurant in the North End called Trescas... It is this fantastic Italian restaurant owned by none other than Ray Borque. It was delicious and a great last dinner in the states (AH!). We then went to a little bakery and got dessert... Key lime pie, of course... and came back to the hotel to get a restful sleep (yeah right, it's like Christmas eve for me).
Anyways, this is it! I leave for the airport tomorrow at 7:30am and fly out of Boston at 10:30am! Tomorrow will be my last night in the states until the end of June. February 4th really snuck up on me but I am getting more excited as each minute passes. Before I know it I'll be in Fiji with 30-something new AIFS friends! aghh!
I want to say thanks to everyone who has been sending good luck and best wishes my way. Danielle called and reminded me to live it up and enjoy the ride, and many friends have made me realize how thankful I am for the opportunities that I seize and the people in my life who really make a difference. I love you all!
