Here we GO!

I CANNOT believe it.. the time is actually here. I leave for Uganda TOMORROW! This week has been pretty crazy. Amidst the frantic final preparations, I have made some amazing memories with family and friends. Memories so amazing, they will carry me through the summer I will spend so far away from home.

To be honest, it's kind of hard to explain how I am feeling.

Every emotion you can name? YES.

Part of me feels so sad to be leaving friends and family I love SO much.... part of me feels terrified about the unknown, but an even bigger part of me feels so excited for the adventure I am about to have. I have been wanting to do something like this my whole life. Now, my moment is here. It is time. This is real. This is IT. :)

Stay safe, be happy, and live life! Never forget things that matter most. Make each moment count, time is so precious and it passes by so fast.

I love you all and have an awesome summer! My next update will be from Uganda :) I am not sure how reliable the internet will be there, but I will try and update this blog as much as I can.
