Let's Do This

I am not going to pretend that I am a blogger, but I have promised all of my friends and family that I will document my 6 months (yes 6 months...that is a long time people) in Santiago, Chile for their reading and viewing pleasure.  What better way to do so than with a blog?  I may not be as witty as some (cough, Lauren Dunn, cough, cough) or as eloquent as others (cough, Sarah), but I am going to try my best to keep my readers entertained.

The title of this post sums up my feelings about the week ahead of me.  This week is going to be the most amazing and stressful week of my life, but I think that I am ready for it. On Thursday I will be taking the MCAT and on Friday I leave for Chile.  It is a little hard to make time to pack when you are cramming obscene amounts of organic chemistry and other MCAT nonsense into your head, so it will be a fun several hours of preparing to leave after the exam is done.  Don't get me wrong, I have been planning and collecting the things I need for my trip, but my suitcase is still empty.

Oh well.  I will deal with packing later.  My wonderful mother (shout out to you Mom) has been really helpful with the travel preparations and has agreed to be my personal packing assistant as soon as the MCAT fun is over and done with.

Now I must return to my studies.  I will write again when I finally get to Chile! Hasta luego.

Un beso,
Claire
