Welcome to my blog! I'm hoping that this is a good way to keep it touch with all of you while I'm making my way in Jakarta, Indonesia as an 11th grade English teacher. Here's the scoop:
Departure date: July 6
What I'm doing until then: freaking out and going to Michigan for a family vacation
Hours I'll be in Indianapolis between vacation and getting on a plane: hopefully 24
Time it will take me to get from Indianapolis to Jakarta: about 30 hours with stops in Dallas, Los Angeles, and Hong Kong.
Things I wish I were taking: my cute sweaters (too hot there) and more books (not enough room)
What I've been doing this week: saying goodbye (to Indianapolis, to clean tap water, to weather below 70 degrees, and to people I love), driving to the Indonesian consulate in Chicago twice, worrying about my visa, getting my visa, hanging out with my parents, getting new luggage, and not putting stuff in that luggage (yet).
Best way to reach me: email--lauralizmail@yahoo.com--since I don't know what my phone service will look like until I get there. I can also receive snail mail at my school.

What would make me really happy: to hear from you during my Indonesian adventure and to have your thoughts and prayers with me.
