Count down begins, 10 days.

Well since this is my first blog, and I'm awkward enough as it is, this shall be interesting. So far I have had a polio shot, Hepatitis A, Yellow fever, and two rabies shots. Yesterday I finished my Typhoid pills and I have my last Rabies shot on Tuesday.  I will also start my Malaria pills a couple days before I leave. My "Africa Pile" is growing a little more everyday and it is going to be a challenge to fit everything into my 2 suitcases. I'm excited to get out of the cold, but also nervous about what the next 15 weeks is going to bring me. If my blog does suffice your need to speak to me my e-mail is jspista@purdue.edu and I would love to get letters! No packages please, they are too hard to get to our camps! I hope everyone enjoys my blog, I'm sure it will be awkward and nerdy, you have been warned.
