¡HOY!

Today is the day! Today, I leave for six months abroad in Chile and I couldn't be more excited. I thought I'd be a lot more anxious and nervous but actually I'm quite calm. I think it helps that preparing for this whole thing was almost like a part time job last year. Between all the hours of Spanish class to the dozens of emails between myself and the EAP program to get ready and get my visa I feel like this leg of the journey might be the easiest. The only real concern I have is getting off the ground, but I've got confirmation numbers and emails at my disposal so I don't expect it to be a major problem. I don't have much else to say, other than, hooray! Also, I have my contact info for anyone who wants to send me anything or get in touch with me at any time.

Email: melanie_dyer@umail.ucsb.edu

Phone #: 011-56-2-95166926 (I know the 8 digits looks goofy, but that's the right number!)

If you want to send me something (letter, package, etc.) DON'T send it to my address (whatever that ends up being). Please send it to the UC Study Center
Programa Universidad de California
PUC-CHILE Campus Oriente Ave.
Jaime Guzmán 3300
Nuñoa Santiago, Chile

You can also call the UC Center at 011-56-2-354-5160

Okay, everybody! The next time you hear from me, I'll be in Chile! Que les vayan bien!!!
