23 days!

So, I have never written a blog before, but I figured it will be the best way to keep everyone updated on my life when I move to Sevilla.

I move over on September 22, 2011 and will be there until June 10, 2012. I leave in 23 days (not like I am counting or anything...). I cannot wait to move over. Even though I won't start teaching until October 3rd, it will be great to just get over there.

I am only nervous about one thing, finding where I am going to live. My program doesn't do a whole lot with living arangements. So far all I know is that I am going to be living with a girl named Emily and we are thinking about finding some other roommates. Emily moves over a couple days before me, so she will start looking and then hopefully we find a place before September 28th because that is when orientation is over.

Packing is looking really difficult right now. I am not worried about packing clothes, shoes and toiletries. I am worried about picking teaching materials. I have SO MANY books in my personal library and the program told us to bring one. How am I supposed to pick ONE book out of my hundreds?? I am also still trying to figure out what else to take. Hopefully I figure it out!
