22 Aug 2008, All but gone

I just looked at my countdown timer for when I leave. 3 days, 1 hour, 48 minutes, 1 second. I remember when I started using this countdown timer as my homepage, it was well over 100 days. Time hardly seemed to move. Now, I can't even nap for an hour without going through more than 1% of my time left on Dominica.

I took my last exam yesterday. It started at 8 a.m. I was done by about 9:30 a.m. I'm not sure what to think of it other than I'll be continuing on to the next semester without a hitch (unless I just jinxed myself). Afterward, Becky and I celebrated a little bit.

But, the way things are going, I just don't feel too celebratory. There's so much to do before we leave here. And, once we get back to the States, there's a bunch to do there, too. I can sum up what needs to be done in two sentences. Move my family to Miami. Review 4 semesters' worth of medical school for an exam the day after we start fifth semester.

Hopefully, seeing some new digs in 3 days, 1 hour, 38 minutes will help re-energize me.
