I just got my passport!




My passport just arrived in the mail! This means I'm one step closer, right?

I had lunch with a friend of mine the other day and he told me that I should be getting at least $750 from the school as a result of the Global Learning Initiative or whatchamacallit. This is very technical stuff here, guys. Either way, looking at my budget, it looks like I'll need to amass about $5,000 before August 26th. I think I can make it happen, it just seems like a whole mess of money. And that's not taking into account the random stuff that I'll need to buy. For example, I don't even have any luggage. Or power adaptors to make things not die. And Lauren recommended that I take my cell phone. And I have to actually pay for this trip and tuition. I already turned in my FAFSA, so hopefully HOPE will take care of the majority of the tuition (no pun intended!)

If anyone has any ideas on how to start getting some money together, other than working myself to death, feel free to throw them at me!
