EEEK....24 days and counting!

 So today after reading a facebook post from a fellow YAV going to N. Ireland with me saying that she was all packed it started to sink in that I only have 24 more days until I say goodbye to my family and friends. This over the last few weeks has not been a shock but more exciting because I received my visa! Also, I received e-mails from both the minister of the church I will be working in and from the head of The Link which is the community center where I will also work. This made it all seem more clear and put into perspective the type of people I will be working with and actually made me be able to envision myself there. On Sunday,  I present and get commissioned in church, so I have been working hard on the power point for that presentation, which makes it feel even closer. From here on out I believe everything will fly by and soon enough I will be on the plane and landing in Belfast! Well I know this was a short post... but i just got in from a Phillies game and I am a bit exhausted. So more to come soon! :)
