The Storm Before the Storm

With less than 48 hours until my life changes forever, It's pretty difficult to fall asleep. Nothing is done and I have way too much on my mind. Packing? Haven't started. Euros? Have none. I'M SO READY!

This being my first post, I guess I should tell you about myself. My name is Brittany Valente and I'm currently a sophomore at Ithaca College in upstate NY. I'm majoring in Business Administration while concentrating in Marketing and International Business. I have an amazing family living in Westchester County, NY whom I will miss sooo much but they couldn't be more supportive. I absolutely love my school, friends and family which makes leaving so hard.

The program I'm choosing to study on is through CC-CS (spanishstudies.org) in Alicante, Spain. The small-ish town is located on the Costa Blanca, near Valencia, on the Southern Coast. I will be studying in the International Business program a la Universidad de Alicante. While in Spain, I'm going to live with a host family (I'll tell you more details when I figure it out!) and so far, after an extremely difficult skype conversatiom, they seem very nice.

I leave from JFK airport on Iberia with my friend from school, Sarah Flade. We have planned all our travels together just so we're not alone. Anyway, way too much content for you already so I'll stop but the interesting stuff will come shortly ;)

OFF TO TRY AND SLEEP!
