Wow, I can't believe this day has come...the last day and night with my family here in the States until I return next July. I have so many emotions... excitement, nervousness, and some anxiety as always. At this point, the only way I'll be good is after my parents drop me off. I am dreading the saying goodbye part and just need to meet the people at orientation and then get on the plane to the new chapter in my life. It's weird to think how quickly these past few months have gone; from the application process, to getting accepted to the program, to receiving my host family and now actually following through with all if this and going! I guess the best word to describe it would be overwhelming. I am so overwhelmed!
So, tomorrow I get dropped off in Miami for my first orientation; on Thursday my redeye leaves at 11:50 and I arrive in Asuncion at 7:50am. From there, I get my Visa and go to my second orientation with all my fellow new AFS Paraguay participants for a day or two. Then my host family will get me!!! I'm bit sure if they get my on Saturday or Sunday, but that is what I am most excited for right now. I really can't wait to get to actually meet them and become part of the family.
Well I'm going to sign out and get the rest of my things ready, so I don't have to stress too much tomorrow. I will be posting as soon as I can...and the next post might just be from Paraguay! Stay tuned...:)
