Whats left.. Today and tomorrow. Well the last few hours of today anyway. This will probably be the last post before I take off. I finally have everything packed... and in my bag! I will have to ship a box over though! Packing was hard, knowing just what to bring and how much was a challenge but I got it in the end!
So here is a run down on my past couple days... Friday night football with my friends!! Im going to miss going to those games to support and watch my friends play. Saturday I chilled, went shopping, and then had a wonderful going away party.:) I got to say goodbye to many of my friends. I can't wait to come back and see them all again. I mean their support was one of the drives that got me on this adventure. Sunday. My family got together at my Grandmothers to help her with fall cleaning and just to be together. We hadn't really been all together since.. oh.. Christmas? Well it was nice seeing everyone. Monday we had a family meal with just close family. Now it is already Tuesday!! Not that theres much left of it but ya.. One of my best friends Ruth and her mom April stopped out to say goodbye. It was bittersweet because they are so supportive of me going.
Tonight is the last night here.. in my house.. for 10 months... woww. My mom & dad are going to take me to Des Moines Wednesday night, I fly out there Thursday at 7 something in the morning:) I get to D.C. at 10:30 where Kendra will pick me up to take me to Dulles airport. We have out orientation there in D.C. All the Germany students will fly out Friday night at 5 and will arrive at 7 in the morning Saturday. (Germany is 7 hours ahead so midnight U.S. time.) In Frankfurt my host father, Wolfgang, and sister, Annina, will pick me up! Somewhere around noon I will arrive in Germersheim where my host mom Elke, and sister, Sarah, are waiting!:)
Ahhh!!!
Bis Später!
Ellie.
