Last night it took an extremely long time for me to get to sleep. During that time, I thought. A LOT! And, I was thinking, "Okay, so we have a while till Italy. I don't need to stress about a family or packing quite yet. I go see my cousins next week, then I come home, then its to the beach with my family. In that week at the beach my online classes end...WAIT WHAT? Whoa! That's only 3 weeks!..." and continued.
That was a very confusing entry paragraph. Sorry about that. What you can pick from it is:
1. I STILL don't have a host family. I am one of the 40 people who are still waiting.
2. I am taking online computer apps and PE (more like health) this summer. (This is so I have space in my schedule to double up on classes if that is necessary when I get back.) They seem like they would be pretty easy. Well, computer is going well, pretty easy for me. PE on the other hand, I think we are assigned WAY more than if I took in in the school year. You have to get 35+ mins of exercise a day, 2-3 hour long quizzes a week, and then the activities in the book. I cannot wait till its over!
Another update, is that there is more paperwork that is having to be filled out. Papers to give to the school, the health form for my check up to give to the doctor, and then the dreaded Visa. My appointment with the Italian Embassy is on August 13th. Oddly, only 2 counties in Maryland can go to the embassy in DC. The rest of the counties (like St. Mary's...where I live) have to go to Philadelphia...Awesome! :P
**50 days till NY Orientation! 52 Days till Italy!**
Hope you all are enjoying your summer!!
Arrividerci!
