Where we begin....

Well hello!
I'm creating this blog as a record of the journey of my life. This journey will soon take a very exciting turn and I want to have a way to tell you all about the incredible things I'm going to be seeing and doing. I consider myself to be somewhat blogging illiterate but even though the blogging world is all foreign to me, it's going to be the best and easiest way to keep any and all who want to know updated on the adventures I'll soon be having! Even if I'm the only one that reads it, it'll be worth it, because at least I'll have written down a part of my life. I hope I stick with it! (I've never been very good at the journal thing).
You may be wondering what could be so exciting, so I'll tell you: I'm leaving in just over a week for JERUSALEM!!! I'll be spending an amazing 3 and 1/2 months there and I can't wait! I love adventure, but this is an adventure I've been waiting a long time to go on, and I couldn't be happier! It still doesn't feel real, but I'm hoping when I get off the airplane, it will finally hit me that I'm about to have the experience of a lifetime.
So, with that said, here we go!
