Takin' Care of Business

Well, we are now in the single digits! Nine more days until I leave for Germany!

I took care of a few things today. I got my traveler's checks and Euros and went about figuring out how to get my absentee ballot for the presidential election this November. I still have a bit of shopping to do and then I've got to pack eventually :)

I've been thinking about what I'll miss most about home during my year abroad. Aside from the obvious (friends, family, etc.), I'll miss the food and Ann Arbor. I'll miss the U of M atmosphere and my engineering classes, I'll miss working in the engineering lab I've been with for the last year, I'll miss the sights and activities on campus. But I suppose getting rid of my old surroundings will only make room for the new!

I had a nice lunch outing with my dad today. We had lunch in Mexicantown at Armando's, as we've done many times before. I think I may just miss that the most.
