This is craazyyy, its 10:47 in the morning on Thursday and my German teacher just talked about a Exchange program with Baden-Wuerrtemberg!! She encouraged me to go and said that I could do it for sure, it would be 10 months and I would have to get her and another prof's reference letter. That would be awesome! 10 months in Germany on scholarship? WOW I wanna do it, but at the same time 10 months is a really long time. The longest time I was ever away from my parents was 3 months on a camping trip in southern France. But 10 months? I couldnt come home for Christmas, I would spend it at my Godparent's house I guess. The chance to go back where I lived, to go to University , maybe with my High School Friends...WOW oh man, I wanna do it. But what about Irene? I would miss her so much man, its killin me! What willt the house situation be? Can my housemates get another dude/girl to live with them...oh man. This is gonna be one of my craziest decisions of my life.... Dr. Spokienne, why did you have to encourage me?
