"Everyday Is an Eternity"

I have waited for my country for almost 5 months. When I found out that I was going to my number 1 choice, Germany, it was one of the happiest days of my life! And now the wait is to find out exactly what city I will be living in, in Germany. Even though I wated 5 months for a country in general, waiting for my city will probably be another wait that will seem like forever! I will post on here while I am at the next conference, (February 26-27). During that time we schedule our flights. As of right now all of this news doesn't feel real. It feels like I'm in a dream. This is one of the most unbelieveable thing I have ever done. After my exchange I do plan on looking at colleges in Germany to attend after my 12th grade year. I want to attend a college that would help me get my pilot's liscence. I want to fly for Airberlin. That's all for now folks! :)

Found out country

I found out what country I am  going to. I got my number one choice and it is Germany. Will not know where in Germany I am going until closer to summer. I am ready and excited for this experience.
