Time's A Tickin'...

This afternoon I looked over maps of Barcelona and some info about my program with dad and Dave and I'm getting SO excited!!! My apartment looks so nice, I can't believe it! Nicer than my apartment at school! And it's in such a great location! Look, here's a picture of my bedroom! And look, a door out to the balcony!!

We were looking over the metro and I'm a little nervous about the whole figuring-out-public-transportation thing but hopefully I'll be okay :) We were also looking over a map of Europe and I have so many places I want to go!!!!! I really hope I can fit them all in but it might be slightly impossible.  I definitely want to visit Paris, London, Dublin, Brussels, Auschwitz, Florence, Rome, Athens, Madrid and all over Spain of course! And maybe dip into Africa?! How cool would that be! There's so much I want to do I hope I don't get worn out by the end of the semester, I'll still have two weeks to travel after school ends! That makes me nervous because I honestly have no idea what anyone's doing after our program ends or where I will go with who but I guess that's part of the excitement!! So much is up in the air and I have no idea what to expect but this will definitely be good for me... I can't wait!  Christmas was so nice and I'm so excited I finally got a Kindle!  I'm going to stock up on books so I will have plenty overseas and it will definitely be a good distraction while I'm freaking out on the flights over :) I'm also glad to have gotten some spending money (definitely need it) and some maps and guide books!  I'm def. going to look so American! hahaha. Well tomorrow I'm running to the store to get some last minute things (power adapters) and then I'll be almost ready to go! I can't believe that I'm spending the start of the new year in BARCELONA for four months! It's still unreal! SIX more days!!!!!!!!!!
