Pre-Day Jitters

Hi, my name is Hannah Allen and I have pre-day jitters.

I was accepted into the Rotary program to be an exchange student. I found out I was going to Germany which ironically is the country I was born in. I am traveling to Rheinbach, Germany tomorrow and I have just discovered that the world is a big place after all. I live in a small town in Nebraska, and I come from a big family. That's just a little bit about me, but the real point of this blog is that I am leaving in one day and have nothing accomplished and everything to worry about.

My day has started off as such. For my going away party I had a day on the beach on Saturday and Sunday. Today I woke up with a fat lip, its not just the everyday fat lip though. It's the kind where everyone will look out of the corner of their eyes to see just how big it is. My mom took me into the doctor and the doctor said that it was caused by the sun, and stress....imagine that. So she gave me some medicine and sent me on my way, although I know she was doing her job I still don't see how these little tablets are going to heal my fat lip in a day. Once I get home I packed all my stuff really fast so I could spend the rest of the day vegging. Of course moms being how they are mine just so happens to unpack all my suitcases and re-packs them and now is un-packing them once again. So now I have a fat lip and my clothes are being thrown every where. So on top of all that stress I also have never been in an Airport, so I am completely blind going into this... hopefully tomorrow my last hours before I leave will be filled with less pre-day jitters.

I'm so glad you decided to start a blog. This will be a fun way to keep up with what's going on with you.

I hope you have safe travels. I can't believe you'll be gone for a whole year! I'll miss you!
