Africa!

This is a picture of Zanzibar(not a picture I google searched either!)--It is an island that is located in the Indian Ocean right outside the Tanzanian coast! This summer I plan on traveling to Africa. Right now I am saving up money for my plane ticket--I am more than half way! It is an idea that I have sort have joked about and now (god willing) it will become a reality! I am not sure the length of my trip because I will still have lots of bills here in Chicago but all of the complicated issues will get solved closer to the date! All I know is that this will be a wonderful leap in life! And something very exciting to look forward to. I am also excited to go to Tanzania for a business perspective as well. After 2012 I will have my degree in I/O Psychology and I am thinking about doing International Consulting of some sort. I think it is a great idea because I will have some international ties. While I am there I hope to learn new ideas and see what I can potentially can make happen in the near future.

Until my trip I need to be brushing up on my Swahili because that is the language spoken there. Luckily, I have had about 2 and half years of prior experience! But not enough to master the language! I also have to bring a completely new wardrobe because women are expected to dress a certain way. YIKES! I think the experience will be extremely rewarding~but I have a lot of things to get done and summer will be right around the corner!

This is my last weekend before school resumes on monday :( It's crazy to think that in may--I will be half way done! All I can do is push myself to the finish line..I cannot wait to have that diploma! That's all for now..I hope everyone is having fun relaxing before school starts~ I know I am! Until next time..
