I can't believe I leave little Granby on Sunday, just about 1 1/2
days left here then its off to San Diego! My family decided to celebrate
my last family supper tonight since tomorrow will be a little crazy
around the house with some last minute packing. We decided on sushi
tonight which is one of my favorites and I am excited to try legit sushi
in Japan, but that's besides the point. I had one of my favorite dishes
the Yon Bon dinner which is spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and spicy yellow
tail rolls and then a tempura banana for dessert:)
Today
is also my older brother Wade's birthday today and I just want to give
him a little shout out for being 26!! I wish I got so see him before I
left but I will miss you Wade<3
I am pretty much
finished with all of my packing even though I always over-pack yet still
feel like I need more!! I finally adapted the technique of rolling my
clothes which is AMAZING because I was able to fit all of my clothes in
one of my suitcases! As a pageant girl you would think I would be a pro
at packing...not so much. I can't believe I was able to pack my life
away for 4 months into these three things!!!
It
still hasn't hit me that I am going to be gone from everyone and have
very limited contact with everyone here but I am excited to learn how to
live without the obsession with the cellphone being at my side 24/7,
lets just say I might go through some withdrawals the first week. But I
have read a lot of blogs of former semester at sea students saying that
they are able to actually get to know people without the distraction of
technology which I am really excited for but obviously I wont forget my
friends at home... ;) ;) (that's for you Morgan)
While I'm
gone I will have very limited access to the internet but unlimited
access to email so I will be updated my blog as often as I can through
email.
Please feel free to email me at
samantha.sojka.sp13@semesteratsea.org to say hi or have any suggestions
on what to do in the countries I am traveling to or some cool ideas of
what kind of picture to take in each country so I can have the same pose
in every country or if you are interested in me sending a postcard to
you! I can't promise anything but I might be able to get to it:)
I will make sure to post in San Diego before I head to Ensenada to board the ship!!!
Wish me luck!!!
<3 Sam
