Stress!!! Stress!! Stress!!!

So I had a fabulous trip to St. John! Super-duper amazing water and beaches, very relaxing minus the bugs and the scorpions! I am now calling myself the scorpion slayer!! Anyway, I will try to post pics as soon as I figure out how! I return home and my inbox is flooded with logistical stuff for my exchange! The person who was going to take over my apartment may change his mind, and the housing I had set up for my partner hasn't quite been established!! I can't get in touch with my usually very dependable friend! Pray for me that I don't kill someone! Then, on top of that, my new "boyfriend" is going through some crisis and went into isolation mode!!! What the crap!!???

It's official!!!!!!!!

I got it!!! My official letter from the Fulbright committee! My exchange is final! I'm definitely, without a doubt, teaching in Lima, Peru in August!!!! Wahoooooo! I'm booking my flight for my training in Washington, D.C. tomorrow. I've never been there either so I'm pretty pumped about that, too! I'm going to fly home to Tennessee for a few days as my layover from L.A. to D.C., head to the capital, and from there, on August 8, I will fly to Lima, Peru, my home for the next year!
