Drawing near...

So close to departure time. I've been gathering things that I want to pack... laughable what will fit... I rented a DVD about travelling to Greece from the library and it was phenomenal. I learned that Athens has terrible air pollution due to its traffic problems that is corroding the Acropolis and that the Greek islands have a happenin' gay scene. Somehow these little facts, among others, shook off all nerves, and now all that's left is excitement - well, not for smog, obviously. I just regret that I will not be able to make it to my sister's high school graduation in mid-June. Good luck and happy birthday, Julie!

Also, please feel free to comment on here. Thanks! Bye!

Home Sweet Home

I'm back in SW, after a rainy move-out of the lovely West Village C. Much shopping is definitely in order. Flip flops - clearly a top priority. Also, I'm riding my bike to the library tomorrow to get Eleni because the first book report is due on May 15! It's all becoming a reality... But I still can't believe I'll be in a foreign country in a little over a month. Summer 2007 BRING IT ON!!!

Spring semester is over

My middler year is complete. Just took my last final and I am free as a bird until June 6 when I will be flying to Athens to begin my month-long stay! Can't wait... but also can't figure out how to fit all of my shoes and a month's worth of clothes into one small suitcase and a carry-on. Ideas? Supposedly we'll have pretty regular access to an internet cafe across the street from our hotel so I'll try to post on this as often as I can to keep everyone updated on my adventures. Hopefully I will meet Kostas from Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants... I'll let you know.
