Typically in May I am dying for school to be let out so it can be summer and I can stop stressing about finals and such. Of course I am more than excited for summer this year, but it's a different kind of excited. While I wouldn't mind school ending, I'm starting to realize how long it will be until I am at my high school again. I won't be going to school with my friends, going to football games and swim meets, and having track practice for a year and a half. School ends four weeks from tomorrow, and even though I am so ready excited for it to be over, I don't mind as much these next four weeks going fairly slow. I want to make the most of my last 4 weeks of sophomore year, since I only have one year left of American high school. It still hasn't hit me that I am leaving at the end of summer, and I don't think it will for awhile.
In YES news, I have received my departure date! I will be leaving for Indonesia on approximately August 22! It may not be the exact date yet, but I will be leaving some time around that day. I was really surprised since I was figuring somewhere more along the early september time, but I couldn't be more excited. We have our Pre-departure Orientation in DC in June and I am so excited for that too. All of the 65 YES Abroad finalists will be there, and I can't wait to be reunited with everyone from the IPSE, and meet the Indonesia group. I have only met two out of the seven other girls going to Indonesia with me, but I'm sure we'll be really good friends :)
Exactly 100 days until Indonesia!!
