I am leaving in 13 days!

I can't believe it!

I am getting very excited. I have about 15-20 library books filling my room's windowsills- travel guidebooks for Europe, Poland, everywhere - plus a bunch of Czech literature. I got a really great book about culture, customs, and manners in the Czech Republic - it's really interesting. It is making me really want to meet some Czechs and get to know them, hopefully experience the real, not-just-student culture.

Oh my goodness! I am getting butterflies just thinking about this. I am going to another country - all by myself - for months! What was I thinking?
