Destination: Cairo

It's the night before i leave the country for 9 months. My 2 huge suitcases are finally packed and ready to go, they barely make the 50 pound weight limit, so i'll either have to eat steroids for breakfast tomorrow or bank on some chivalrous soul assisting me once I get to Egypt. I'm a bit apprehensive at this point, I know I am really going to miss everybody at home and at school but I hope the cure for all of this worry is a seat on a Boeing 767 as well as the faces of the other students who will be going with me from ND. If I had a firmer grip on mathematics and time zones i could tell you how many hours from now it is until touch down but alas i cannot. So until my next post... good bye!

  1. This is terrific, Jess. I've read it twice now, trying to transport myself from the banks of the St. Joe to the banks of the Nile. Thank you for sharing a few details with your news-starved family. Love, Mom
