Things I love:

• Sitting on the porch with my grandpa listening to his life stories.
• A multitude of hugs even if a goodbye must follow.
• That feeling of excitement/nervousness before you leave on a big trip.
• Ann Arbor in the summer :)

One more week 'till Africa. I can hardly believe this is real life. I've dreamed of this day ever since I watched Lion King the first time. And now that it's so close... GAHHH I'm uber pumped! I don't know what it is but I just feel like I'm LIVING LIFE.

So here's to life!
