Sooo an update on the clothing situation: I think I'm good now!!!!
Mom and I spent the entire day shopping, which always produces much better results than when I go by myself :) I found lots of cotton shirts, and a dress which will work well with my light but dressy skirts and light dress pants. We also got dressy, comfortable sandals. I got a nice digital camera and tons of other random things that I'll need - from toiletries to a flash drive to a robe. I think I'm set.
I'm excited to meet the other 39 students I'll be traveling with - we've all "met" on facebook and I've chatted with many of them. I'm really excited to meet them.
I took my first malaria pill yesterday and didn't get dizzy, nauseous, or anything else. Phew!
I'm not looking forward to tackling the daunting task of packing. I can have 2 suitcases, 50 pounds each in addition to my carry-on. That's not very much room or very much weight....
That's all for now!

hooray! I am packed and on my way. Two bags is not bad at all, though I love fitting things in and usually pack pretty light. Hey, are you gonna bring and sports balls at all? Because a friend of mine gave me like 10 that I'm bringing, so feel free to take one and give it away when we show up.
I took my first doxy today, and I am feeling a bit nauseous, but I think that's more due to the tons of food last night. Can't wait to see you in DC!! When do you fly in? I'm gonna be at the DC airport / possibly venturing out into the unknown city for like 13 hours. We should have lunch or something if you're getting there early.
