London Here I Come!

So I found out yesterday that I have been placed with a sponsor company in London. It is a brokerage company, Cantor Fitzgerald. I will be leaving March 2nd and thought that the best way for everyone to keep track of me is through a blog. I've enjoyed reading other people's blogs (Amy's from Rome, Brenda's for the baby, and Bonnie's for the baby). Hopefully I can make my blogs as interesting as theirs were!

I bought my plane ticket today. It's a one-way from Minneapolis to London through Canada. It takes off at 6:30pm on Sunday March 2nd. Hopefully mom and dad will drive me to the airport!! If not, guess I better get packed and start walking soon!

There is soooo much to get done before I leave. I have already cancelled my gym membership, bought my plane ticket, and gone to the doctor to get the mountbatten medical form filled out. So that is 3 things out of the way. I still have to renew my driver's license, get my visa (first I have to wait for Mountbatten to get my Work Permit to me), getting the visa also includes going to a British Consulate to get fingerprinted, get my haircut (very important!), get microsoft office on my computer because word perfect boths me, exchange dvds with nicole, update my ipod, pack up my room because my MEAN parents plan on moving while I'm gone, pack for the year in London, pay for the year in London, say goodbye to all my friends and family (the hardest part :( ), play 4 more hockey games, and 5 more nights of wallyball . . . . . . I think that might be everything.

All in all, it's going to be a lot of running around for 4 1/2 weeks, but it will be worth it.

The internship and Grad school program look intense, so I'm sure the year and 3 months will fly by. I'll be back in MN before I know it!
