May 30th, 2007

After celebrating my 22nd birthday last night, it's back to work. As usual, I under estimated the time it would take to fully prepare myself for the trip. Between packing, buying necessary items, credit cards, my phone, rent, moving out of my house, tuition installments, etc. it seems as though I will never get everything done in time. I figure as long as I have a good attitude everything will work out.
I can't express how eager I am to live in Argentina. As much fun as it is listening to Spanish on tape, I would much rather prefer to amerce myself into the language. I'm nervous about the language barrier, but I know things will get much easier as time passes.
Leaving tomorrow should be quite the bitter sweet experience. I have a great life and I'm surrounded by great people, but this experience will be one I will never forget. And who am I kidding, I'm only gone for a few months. I will be back before anyone has time to miss me.
Well, back to packing. The next time I update my blog I will be doing so from Argentina, so get ready for some outrageous stories.
Bye for now,
Chris

Chris, You make us all so proud! I hope that you have a super time in Argentina and return to us full of the culture, the language and many rich stories. Take care, son.
Love, Dad
