Two weeks from TODAY we leave for South Africa. My stomach does funny things when I say that out loud. I am so excited. I’m not scared; it just makes me a little nervous to be responsible for a dozen people in a country I’ve never visited before.
After all we’ve studied this semester, I think we all feel it: we are just ready to BE THERE.
In the meantime, there are finals to write and grade, a few feet-high stacks of papers to grade, and I’d like to sqeeze in a bike ride here and there to stay sane.
Speaking of biking, my friend Danielle Mitchell is a sports medicine physician in Chattanooga, Tennessee (how many double letters can you get in one place? This even beats the Mississippi). The area is hosting a big pro bike race, and guess who showed up? My idol and yeah, okay, if I have a crush on a celebrity, it’s on George Hincapie. So look what Danielle got for me.
