Small World

So, as I was flying home to California yesterday, I was telling the person sitting next to me about how I'm about to go to China on the CET program. A girl sitting across the aisle overheard and asked if I was going on the CET Beijing trip, which of course I am. Surprisingly, her boyfriend is going on the same program! I was amazed at what a very small world it is. So, after talking with her a while, I have sort of vicariously met one of the other 44 students on our trip.
I feel like I've been waiting so long now to go on this trip that it's almost surreal that my flight is just days away. I am very excited to go, and meet all these new people and speak Chinese and just be in China, but I don't think it'll seem like it's going to happen until it does.
