Paper submitted. Books returned. Bags packed. I am finally done with sophomore year, and ready to head off to Morocco! 8 more days until I fly off to the city of Rabat. I will be working at the CCCL for two months, and I will be staying in a French-speaking family. While there, I will try to blog about my Moroccan adventures and all the exciting things that are happening over there! So if you'd like to follow along, please subscribe!
Preparation for Morocco is a lot harder than I thought it'd be! Things I have yet to do....
- Pack!! Must go shopping for lots of long flowy skirts and dresses
- Get all my medicine and pills ready - want to stay happy and healthy while I'm there
- Write down a list of all the important addresses and telephone numbers for when I'm there
- Get a French dictionary!! I can write an analytical french paper...but I'm not sure if I can communicate things like "I accidentally clogged the toilet" in French
I have been told that, while there, I'll have a lot of free time in the evenings. I am trying to compile a reading list, so that I can get books from the library to take with me there. If anyone has any suggestions, please post them here so that I can go get the book! I'd love any suggestions!
While this is all very exciting, it is also very scary! But I'll try to keep this updated, so that you all can follow along! For now, I must continue with the packing process. T-8 days!!
YAYAY AMMMYYY
