This week will be filled with all my planning for Ghana. I have been so busy lately that I just haven't devoted enough time to preparing myself for this huge adventure I'm about to go on. So, today, I am starting a massive campaign of reading and researching. Yesterday, I finally got my yellow fever vaccination, so I'm all set to go on that front except that-- I don't know anything really about Ghana! Thus, all my free time this week will be spent poring over books and the internet, trying to absorb even an ounce of information that could come in handy when I get there.
I am one of those people who likes to do extensive prep-work before any major event. I had already memorized the campus map of Rice before I even got there my first day. I look up restaurant reviews before I agree to eat there. I'm just one of those freaky people who likes to have controlled spontaneity. I like trying new things; I love change; I enjoy not having a long term plan. But I damn well better be able to know exactly what I am doing in the next 8 hours. And how to do it. And where.
So I research. And I prepare. So this week is set aside for preparing myself. And packing (can't ever forget packing.)
