I'm official!

I have the work permit in hand, and the picture is pretty cute too! haha. I'm all set to leave in, yikes! 24 hours. I still have lots to do, mostly in the area of packing. making travel arrangements, and writing/replying to gumtree/cragslist ads for London flats. I used my downtime at the Consulate today to call all my credit cards/banks to inform them of where I'll be traveling. I gave them a long list of countries, just in case: Czech Republic, Austria, Slovenia, France, and Italy (and the UK of course). I'll probably only make it to half of them. Wish me luck packing tonight! I'm going to do my best to bring everything I really want.
