Oh dear lordy lord. In a few days time I will be roaming around in the emaXhoseni (i.e. the Transkei. Actually, that sentence was redundant. It meant "In a few days time I will be roaming around in the in the Transkei). Argh. I am so ;AKSJDHFAS;JKLDFHASing scared.

I'm going with my Xhosa class to a 6 day hike in the Transkei. And if you have to count in the 4 days it will take to drive there and back...then I'm away from my bed, my computer, my telephone, my FOOD, my TV, my music, my family....and all of that...for 10 days. Without even a stove or a shower for most of the time, swimming across rivers, making my own lunches and sleeping with my class in a hut.

Oh my freaking god. I know it might turn out to be absolutely brilliant, and as Vinesh pointed out, at least I'm not him, studying frantically for his university finals and staying up all night every night trying to finish his research. But still. I'm scared. I'm scared. I'm scared. And I'm excited...just to get in the car and know that I'm one step closer to this all being over and being in my bed again.

Yes, that sounds negative - I do want to have fun and not just be wishing to be at home the entire time - but I'M SCARED DAMMIT! :/ (Smooth finish)
