Dollar Signs-$6740 to go

It's true. I am in the process of hyperventilating right now.

"What is causing this minor panic attack?" you might be wondering. Well, it comes in the form of dollar signs. Yes, a simple letter S with a line through it is causing me endless moments of worry, stress, and reminders to breath. To be fare, I have spent the last four hours looking though airfare and hotel prices across Europe, all of which could be blissfully ignored for at least another month or so. But the cold hard fact remains, travel is expensive.

The good news is that I have my plane ticket. A one way seat to Bucharest, Romania is in my possession. The reality that there is no turning back is seeping in slowly, but the excitement that I don't have an option is also making its way in at the same rate. Thanks to some donations, for which I am extremely grateful, I am $260 closer to my goal. There is still a long way to go, but Rome wasn't built in a day, and a mustard seed doesn't grow overnight.


A reminder: I will be selling t-shirts in front of the Danforth Wal Mart  on Jan 21st from 9am-4pm, and all proceeds will be going to support my trip to Romania. If we don't have your size when you get there, just put in an order and we'll ship it to you for free (yes, I am nice enough to include free shipping). Come help pump those dollar signs up, and support the cause to educate the people of Brasov.
