haha its funny that you knew what i was talking about - i am in such serious denial
hmm - i thought most people were gone before sept? israel, australia, and india left in july, ecuador and thailand are gone sometime this month - and those are pretty big programs. but yea, not totally sure.
It's been really nice here so far. The weather is really great and the food is pretty good too.
We spent most of the day today at the Dead Sea. Tons of fun.
Hopefully we're going to Jordan (probably Petra) during the break between Ulpan and the start of the semester. After our program ends in December we're also hopefully spending a few weeks traveling around Europe.
I dont even know how I feel... most of the time I dont even feel like I am leaving. in conversation when i tell people "oh yeah, im studying abroad in africa" it's very surreal. and then when i start reading stuff about senegal I do get excited about it, a little anxious as well, but then after that, when I go about my normal boring life, i go back to not even feeling like I am leaving
That's about how I felt too. I didn't do much reading before I went to Budapest, but I just went about my normal boring life too until I was at the airport. Sometimes, I felt excited or curious, but mostly, I felt nothing much. It changed when I got there though.

Good luck with everything!

And, at least in 2005, most of the programs did not start until early September. Your friend is right about that.
