UGANDA?

Well, its been awhile! I've been meaning to blog for sometime now, but I never seem to have the chance to. And by that I mean I never seem to really put this first. I wish I was better at keeping up with this, so I'm going to try.
Maybe I haven't really blogged because I don't really feel like anything interesting has happened to me.

Oh wait... I'M GOING TO UGANDA!

Random, right?! Anyways, there's a backpacking journalism trip to Uganda that I really wanted to go for, and I applied this Wednesday... yesterday I got an email telling me I got the trip. The registration for the trip has already closed... CRAZY! But it is going to be the best experience of my life... I can't wait for it. Seriously. I have another semester to go before I get to go, and I am already so excited I can hardly stand it. AFRICA. I've barely been out of the country, and the next place I'm going to go is AFRICA. I'm not sure how well I'm going to handle these plane rides, but if that's my only problem, I'm okay with it. I just don't know really what to expect Uganda to be like... I mean when I think Africa I think Lion King. I think lions and elephants roaming around in the wild.( I think this is mostly because of Emmanuel and his picture holding a lion... but still) But how cool would that be?! I don't know how accurate my assumption is, but talk about an experience.
