All Is Done. Oh Wait, Payments...

First of all, I have been reading blogs by other AFSers that are actually in France right now. They make me very excited for my departure, but there are still a million things to worry about, so I have a few interesting weeks ahead of me. I had my AFS interview, but it isn't that big of a deal. Yet! There is a funny story I wanted to tell about that, but not on here. :) Curious? I thought so. Anyways, I received my payment letter thing in the mail today. It is one of the lasts things I want to worry about, but it is probably the most important. I have gotten as much money as I can, but I can't do anymore fundraisers for the moment. (My mom doesn't want me to fundraise for odd reasons.) So, this post is basically meant to update all of you who actually care about what is going on. For everyone interested in studying abroad in the future, be sure to know that this isn't all fun and games! Haha, there is SO much work, stress, anxiety, preparations, learning, and studying! But also keep in mind that it is a once in a lifetime sort of thing, so it will all be worth it in the end! I have read and talked to a bunch of people who have studied in France, or are in France right now, and they are having so much fun as they grow in their language knowledge(language knowledge? Yes, I'm tired)! Obviously, I am very tired right now, because although my vocabulary and grammar is usually bad(mostly my vocabulary), it is horrible tonight. So I hope you enjoy critiquing! Have fun!
