The Time Has Come

After months of planning, too many goodbyes, and a haircut that makes my head shinier than a 2008 quarter, it's time to go. I'm leaving Los Angeles tonight bound on a journey that will take me thousands of miles away to fulfill my dream. Aside from the twelve hour layover in Toronto, I can't wait to get there. I will arrive in Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv on Thursday morning and find out where I am living, what fields I will be playing at, and who my teammates are. I'm pretty fired up to be finally going out there. I feel that I'm as ready as I can be physically and mentally to make this a successful trip both personally and athletically. Next time I talk to you all it will be from the promised land.
