22 Days Until Departure

Last night I realized that I leave in just three weeks. (The picture to the left is of Guanajuato). Yesterday I also found out that I will probably not be living with another student with my host family. It will just be me and my host family. I'm fine with that, but I won't be able to look over at another American when they do something crazy and give him/her the "Can you believe these people?" look. Oh well, it should be a lot of fun. I know two people from The Ohio State University that are going, but we haven't spent any time together so we really don't know much about each other. I was a little concerned that none of us would get together while we are living in Guanajuato, but then I remembered that when I was in London, that wasn't the case. Although the London trip was very different, when you stick American students in a foreign country and they know no-one, they bond and become close friends very quickly. I'm not worried about having people around. I AM WORRIED about the FOOD though. I hate authentic Mexican food (at least the couple of times that I've had it). Don't get me wrong, I like Tex-Mex food, but the authentic stuff tastes nothing like it. Oh well, we'll see how this all goes. This is pretty much just a test message so I can get this thing set up.
