It’s almost midnight in Nashville. I should be sleeping but I’m not tired and I have too much to think about.  My flight to Buenos Aires, Argentina leaves at 8:30AM…8 hours from now.

I left Washington DC on Tuesday after a few days of sad goodbyes.  It’s crazy how close you can become to friends in only 6 weeks – I hope you guys are doing well!

I spent the last few days at home in Nashville with my friends and family.  Last night I had a few friends over to my house for a going away party.  We grilled burgers and brats, ate homemade vanilla ice cream, and played an epic game of Pictionary (Go red team!).  The gathering was last minute, so no everyone was able to come, but it was really good to see some friends before my departure. Tonight was family night.  We ate lasagna and played Monopoly.  Usually I’m pretty good, but tonight I blew it.  I made some good deals and bought some good real estate, but I kept forgetting to collect rent when people landed on my property and didn’t have any money left to pay my own rent…yep, typical Scott

Anyway, I can’t quite describe how I’m feeling right now.  I’m excited, but I don’t really know what to expect.  I’m slightly nervous, but I’m not sure what to be nervous about.  I think I’ve packed everything, but I still feel like I’m forgetting something.  It’s starting to hit me that 5 months is a long time to be gone.  But, overall I’m really excited and can’t wait to get down there and make some new friends.

I suspended my phone service today, but if you want to talk – download the free program “Skype” and we can video chat.  Just search for “Scott Wofford.”  I’ll be updating this blog soon - wish me luck!
