On my way...

I am writing this from the TMC library. I just spent the last hour or so talking with Stephanie Ong and her roommate which was cool. I am going to be having dinner shortly with my old roommate Jason and another business department buddy. Should be a good time...

PS - Im listening to a book called "Hitler's Youth" and it is a very good study of history. It talks about how the rise of the "national socialist party" a.k.a. the Natzi party was driven by 10-20 y.o. youth. Very amazing story and reminded me how a nation's citizens must be vigilant about what is allowed to happen (ie. it is a bad sign when life is not respected, books are burnt, and one man is the supreme commander of a nation) otherwise a snowball effect can happen and great damage can be done.

2.5 Days Till Takeoff!

I am getting pretty excited about the trip. Just got a message for Christian Hine in South Carolina and I am going to see him so that is pretty cool.

This evening I got bottled water from my dad (thank you) and snacks at from Target. Also filled up the car with gas and did some fine-tuning of the schedule. I also am working on getting some audio books organized on my MP3 player so that I don't have to listen to music 24/7 when I drive.

I am guessing that I will take about 2,500 pictures on this trip...we will know if that was a good guess in about 2 months.
