Inspired by (my CEED partner) Angela’s journal entry regarding India, I thought I should also post something about what’s up one month before we’re supposed to leave.

So I got my vaccines- I had 3 of them all at one time, (which definitely did not help me since I was sick already!) and I had the last one yesterday. I got my prescription for Malaria pills as well. I had to renew my passport since I also recently found out that I WILL be going to Mexico and I need the passport to be valid for at least a year of me going there. Which means that I also cannot get my Indian Visa yet. *sigh* It totally feels like a time crunch, especially since we also haven’t booked our tickets yet.

I know everything will be fine- we’ve got just less than a month to sort things out.

We also recently found out that AIESEC MC in India wants us to visit 8 LCs there! It was totally not what we were expecting since I had asked if we could go to 2 instead of the original 4 that they wanted us to visit; but after some deliberation, the MC has decided that we should visit 8. I’m actually really looking forward to this- not only will we get to see the country having to visit at least 8 different LCs, but we’ll also get to meet tons of new people (which I love doing!).

Okay so—
vaccines- check
plane ticket- not yet
passport- not yet
visa- not yet

I also need to get my cell phone unlocked so I can use it while I’m in India; ooh and also buy a digi cam. (I'm sure there are tons of other things I need to do before we leave.)

Ahhh so much to do and I know this month is just going to whiz by really quickly…

Okay- I’m breathing… :P
