Hello again, everyone!
I was not planning to post again until after I had arrived in China; however,
two reasons have changed that plan.
One is that I have been overwhelmed by all of the extra love and support
I have received from my family and friends over the past week or so prior to my
departure. The encouragement and
faith they have given me are truly humbling, and I feel incredibly blessed to
have each and every one of them in my life. I wanted to take this opportunity to sincerely thank
everyone who has made this once-in-a-lifetime experience possible for me. The other reason for my additional post
is that my beautiful, intelligent, loving mother insisted that she and my
stepfather bring me to the airport three and a half hours before my flight, in
case there were any problems.
Luckily (maybe not?), there were no issues and I arrived at my gate with
Starbucks in hand three hours before my flight is scheduled to depart.
I am extremely excited to arrive Sunday morning and to get
myself settled into a whole new world!
