A lot has happened in the past few months. I was placed with a host family, in Fasano, Italy. Its on the coast, near the Adriatic sea, and according to Google maps, its 5 hours and 23 minutes from Rome. I was also placed in a school, Institutio Scholastico da Vinci. I have 3 host sisters, a host mother, and a host father, and they all seem fantastic. Just writing about it I get excited.
But now I have a problem.
I just want to go. I don't want to wait an entire summer, and I don't want to have to do everything I have to get done in 3 months. I have to take an english course, I have to try my hardest to get a job, I have to apply for a visa, and right now I'm supposed to be writing a letter to the principal of my school explaining why I should be allowed to study abroad. There's just so much I have to do before I board that flight on September 8th in New York City, and every day I feel more and more excited to go and less excited for the things I still have left to do.
I guess I just have to keep reminding myself that I have to keep working hard, and I can't just be lazy. I know I can get it done, right now, I'm just tired of jumping through all these hoops.
I guess my mind is just ready to get there, while everything else just isn't quite up to speed with that. I just can't forget that I still have..
12 weeks, 4 days, 6 hours, and 37 minutes to go.
