It's The FINAL COUNTDOWN

Well, that title would have fit better if I were going to Europe...
I leave Atlanta in 3 days, and leave the states in 4 days.
Currently I have part of one suitcase packed... (out of 2 suitcases, a carry on bag, and backpack).
It seems like I've done most of what I can do as far as preparations, now I just need to call the bank and cc company.
I'm kind of glad that my program starts so late because most programs are now a month in, and I enjoy this nice time to relax! It is partly frustrating because I am reading all of my friends' adventures while slowly packing and otherwise loafing around.
I've recently talked to Akie (one of the visiting Internationals (VI) at K College last year), and she has agreed to help me transport my luggage from Kyoto train station to my dorm room near campus. Not only will it be great to see her, but this will also save money as subway tickets are roughly $1.50-2 depending on the distance as opposed to the higher cost of taxis.
Hisashi and Takumi, two other VI's from my freshman year will be visiting me the following day and showing me around the area.
I've recently received an e-mail with my orientation schedule (of which I can understand roughly 50%). From what I can tell it will be a fun week aside from the placement test and the physical.
...I can't wait until I can actually post stuff about study abroad on here instead of fluff because I'm bored...
In other news I have from 3h20-7pm to land, go through customs, buy an express train ticket, 1.15 hour ride to Kyoto, meet Akie, take subway to 今出川駅, then walk to the dorm and get my key! needless to say I'm stressed about that...
