Distracted!

Although I should be concentrating on more important things (like term papers), my mind keeps shifting to all of the upcoming exciting explorations that I'm soon to experience. Alina (another Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar studying in Medellín) arrived this morning for a few days of local adventures, and Erica (my beloved sister) will come on Sunday (I'll make her write a blog entry like all of my other guests, of course!). She and I will journey to the Amazon, while we'll see the famous pink dolphins and be one with the deep jungle; Santander, where we'll visit beautiful pueblos and partake in extreme sports in Colombia's "adrenaline capital;" Santa Marta, where we'll marvel at the one-of-a-kind view of a snow-capped mountain next to the beautiful Caribbean Sea; Guajira, where we'll sleep in hammocks on the tranquil beach after days of excursions with fascinating indigenous people; and Cartagena, where we'll enjoy one of Colombia's most historical and breathtaking cities.

How can I focus if I have so much to look forward to?!
