As I earlier, gave the link for the homepage of AFS, I said my article was on the homepage, but now it is a little hidden. It is still a Headline Story, but if you do not see the article (flashing) titled: SOUTH CALDWELL STUDENT READY FOR HER DREAM ADVENTURE, you can search the article in the search box in the top left-hand corner of the homepage.
As for interesting things, I have to turn in my tuition money ASAP! That goes for my visa as well~I need to apply ASAP! :)
I am now awaiting to hear back from my host family in Mendoza, Argentina. :) I am unsure of how much English they may or may not know. At first I hope they may know a few words, but I also know I truly want to challenge myself and really learn the language of 'Espanol' while in Argentina from July to January! :D
I have also recently been reading a book called Eva Peron...who was once the first lady of Argentina, but tragically lost her life to a battle of severe cancer. It is a sad, but inspiring story of her life, and it tells a lot about Argentina and its community and government and way of life. I enjoy and and wish to have LOTS more time to read about the country and learn the language better before I depart in July.
I have orientation with many other American students departing for a country this fall, as well as with many current foreign exchange students who are good friends of mine who are leaving the U.S.A. very soon : / I even took a friend from Germany, Dennis, to prom with me, hosted a sweet girl from Paraguay, Claudia, for a AFS ski weekend at my house, and try to hang out with a fun girl (who has a twin hosted in Charlotte) from Brazil, Gigi, that I will miss dearly at school and especially school lunches! : ( I love the life-long friends I have made and hope to have a reason to come back and see them one day! :D
P.S. SUPER excited about the departure date for Argentina creeping up on me! :)
