81 hours

not that I'm counting or anything...I'm beginning to feel a sense of relief as I got a lot of organizing done tonight in preparation for putting things in my suitcase tomorrow and I get to go to sleep before 2am!!! This is quite impressive since I've been up till after 3am the past two nights because I feel like there is so much to do. I mean, I'm leaving for almost three months and while I can purchase some things over there, most I cannot so I need to make sure I've thought of everything, which frankly makes my head hurt. I was so stressed the other day that I yelled at the guy at Wendy's because I had to wait for my chicken nuggets...yeah that was a wake up call...craziness! I leave in just over three days and everything will get done. I see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Oh, also I wanted to let you know that I have a mailing address and cell phone number to contact me while I am in Romania, I'm not going to post them here since this is a public site but if you want to have them just send me an e-mail (ereike@gmail.com) and I'll send them your way.

Thanks everyone for already beginning to write comments! :)

I'll be in touch!

104 Hours

Hi All,

So I'm down to hours to go...104 hours or 4 days and so much yet to do. Today was filled with running around doing errands and it took way longer than expected then I got to go to this awesome concert! Hillsongs United, it was loud but awesome, I great night! So I leave for Atlanta for training on Sunday morning at 10:20am. I'll try to keep this up to date and I look forward to reading your comments. Thanks!

EIGHT DAYS

Hi Everyone!

I leave one week from tomorrow or eight days from now. I finished my child psychology class yesterday which was a huge relief! Other than that my days have been filled with working or putting items in zippies and trying to get all the air out so I can fit more in my luggage, its going to be quite the challenge but I'm up for it. Thats about all for now!

THIRTEEN DAYS

Hi!

Ahhhh, I leave in thirteen days!!! I am getting very excited for my trip to Romania! The reality of leaving in thirteen days is hitting me and I have much to do before I leave. I'm beginning to wonder how I can get everything I need into just one suitcase for the entire summer, its going to be a challenge. I also have a paper to finish for my child psychology class and I work three more times as well. So its crunch time, I leave very soon and I'm super excited, just a lot to do! That's all I have to share for now. Thanks for all your support!!

ONE MONTH!!

Hello!

I leave for Romania in about ONE MONTH!! I'm getting very excited as I've finished up my spring semester of school so now I can focus more on my trip. This is going to be an amazing summer. I'm so thrilled to have this opportunity to pursue my passion to help kids in need.

So this is my blog, I'll be updating this throughout the summer. We actually just found out that we will have wireless internet at our house in Targu Mures so I should be able to update often and add pictures often.

There is also a place here to respond to blogs and write me notes, I'd love to hear back! If you would rather e-mail me my e-mail address is: ereike@gmail.com.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog! If you have any questions please let me know!
