Yesterday I arrived in Miami at the hotel where orientation is and said goodbye to my family. Saying goodbye was sad, but not too bad, because I know I'll be back here before I even know it. The first hour or so here was really scary and weird because no AFS people were here...not even the check in guy. I was sitting in the hotel room by myself waiting for the AFS guy to arrive. After a while I went up for lunch and met two boys that were going to Brazil. There are a lot people going to Brazil. There are also two people going to Chile and six of us going to Paraguay. Surprisingly enough, three out of the six of us are going to do community service. I think there is a total of about 23 people here (I thought it was going to be much bigger)
It's been really boring here. I got here at 11:30 and our first activity didn't start until 7:30 and only went till 9. We have a lot of free time and me and my roommate Reanna are dying to get to the airport and leave. We leave for the airport at 8pm tonight and the flight leaves at 11:50.
My host brother Gili, told me that he and Papá would pick me up Saturday from my NEXT orientation and take me home. I am so excited for that!!! Well, it's going to be a long wait for that shuttle to the airport, but I am so excited for it and can't wait to arrive!!! Keep checking in!
