Conference call #2: Visas!

Picture this: Lauren, Lindsay, and I have taken over the Sports Info office computers and are typing away furiously while Andrew stands ready at the printer, waiting for our documents to come whooshing out ("This is when it actually comes in handy to have a Nigerian passport!" he chuckles). We dash back and forth between computers and printer, checking our passport info, asking questions, making sure we input everything correctly. Meanwhile, Morgan and Eloise are on speaker phone from DC and MD, talking us through the process and filling out the visas themselves. Um, multi-tasking, anyone?

But the task is complete! Applications are submitted. And you guys have been amazing, and gotten me over halfway to my fundraising goal! As of this very second, I've raised $2,090 (in only 3 weeks!!) -- which leaves only $1,410 to go. If you're thinking of donating, or planning to, the sooner the better. Thanks to EVERYONE who has contributed, no matter the amount, every single bit helps a ton. It's really wonderful to have so much support behind me!

For those of you who are visiting this blog for the first time and want to learn more, check out my first post that explains what our trip is all about!

Happy weekend, everyone! (And good luck with finals to those in school!) 

Much love and many thanks!
