So as of today I have 12 days left in until I have to be in D.C for Pre Departure Orientation and only 11 days left in Hillsborough. It still hasn't really hit me yet that in a little over a week I am actually leaving my family and friends for a year. I have so much to do in this short amount of time and it is beginning to become really overwhelming. I am currently in the process of finishing up my online English 3 class and I still have to write the final research paper. Also, I have yet to begin packing. Well actually that's only sort of true, I have my suitcases laying in the middle of my bedroom floor, empty, with the entire contents of my closet strewn on the floor around them, so it is safe to say that packing is not going very well at the moment. Tonight some of my friends are coming over for a little going away party. I can't believe that this is the last time I will see most of them for a whole year, the thought that I am actually leaving is still so surreal to me. Also, I got my school information a few weeks ago but I forgot to make a post about it. I will be attending Mädchengymnasium St. Agnes next year with my host sisters. It is a private Catholic all girls school in Stuttgart. I don't really have any information other than that but I am really excited! I currently do not know what grade the school will put me in. They are trying to decide where it would be best to put me because of my lack of German. I really hope that I will be put in the 11th grade so that I can be with girls my own age, but I am open to wherever they decide to put me. It seems like a really nice school and I am so excited that I will be going to school in the middle of such a big city! I can't believe how fast time has gone by and I can't wait to start my adventure in Germany!
Tschüss,
Dani♡
