Day #1 Miami FL

Today when I woke up I was so beyond worried about heading out for the Peace Corps. I had a billion questions, concerns and fears. My flight was at 8am so met up with some of my favorite people on earth, it was hard to say goodbye. All of my goodbyes have been hard but I have been abel to keep it together. Of corse I got stopped at security but I got lucky they just swab my computer and let me go.  It was such a strange feeling walking threw the airport and wondering what the world was going to bring me next. I was looking at people around me wondering if they were Peace Corps or not. I was so relived to finally be in Miami. After I retrieved all of my bags I found my way out to the shuttle area and my luck was awesome it pulled right up. As we arrived at the hotel the man took all of the luggage and placed it on a cart. While we were waiting I started a conversation with the guy next to me. Come to find out he's going to the Caribbean as well. I don't know how to explain it but most of the fears I had started to drain away. It was like finding a new species, a new life form but someone who was like you. So any ways I found out that I was going to have a roommate so I had a new curiosity about the first girl that I was going to meet. So I showered a got cleaned up so that when she got here she could get comfy. I was so exited that it was an older woman named Cathrin, she is 60 years old and was a teacher for 12 years and also worked social work, she is going to be on St. Vincent. We went to dinner and had a grate time talking. Its been an exiting day and I am ready for bed.

good night everyone and hello new world
