Long time

Wow! Has it really been nearly a year since I last posted??
Time flies when you let it, and I have certainly let these past 10 months go on by in the blink of an eye.  Of course, some of the moments didn't seem like that while it was happening.  And so many things have happened since I last posted.  I will start updating you now and parse it out in bits.
So to begin - after I was accepted to Ross I was in a frenzy to get ready to go to school and move out of the country.  As you can imagine, it was hectic.  But fun!  I packed up my stuff, got registered, found a place to live, got my books, found a international shipping company, etc.  Bit by bit over two months I got myself ready to go. 
I was starting in January, and had to be there no later then Jan 4.  So I made my arrangements to arrive Dec 31!  I had already had a ticket and plans to go to California to spend time with my family over the holidays, so unfortunately I had to change that.  As everything turned out, I ended up traveling down to school and starting everything by myself.  It all went relatively smoothly, and although I would have enjoyed the company, it was better to start off as I would be living day to day life down there.  I needed to get settled on my own and that's what I did.
That's were my journey began!
