Every few minutes, I think, "Holy guacamole, I am going to Peru in a week." or "Dang Gina! In a week from this very moment, I will be in a different hemisphere." or "I should probably eat all of the American food I can, because in 157 hours I will only get to eat guinea pig for 18 months."
And to top off my excitement level for the past two days, I got my mission travel plans yesterday! I was walking outside to take a missionary letter out to the mail, and a FedEx envelope was under my doormat. Totally didn't realize what it was until I was halfway down the front walkway. I flipped and ran back up to my house to open it with my mom.
I am going straight to Peru!! Not Provo!! I am leaving on the morning of September 11th from OKC to Atlanta. Then I am supposed to meet up with other missionaries in Atlanta and fly from there to Lima. I am pretty sure my Visa hasn't gone through yet, because my paperwork says that I'll be entering Peru as a tourist..and there wasn't a Visa included in my travel packet. Hopefully it goes through soonish so I am not deported.
Things are getting real.
