#2 I'm Going to ?

Hey guys!

I’m just so happy that I get to continue blogging! If I didn’t get the scholarship, I wouldn’t have gone abroad. If I didn’t go abroad, I wouldn’t have had anything to write about. I mean, come on, this blog is called 2010 YFU Exchange. So, yay for blogging! Haha.

So, it has been a couple of days since I got The Email. At the moment, I am waiting for my official Winner’s Packet that contains all the details of my trip. Of course, I have been shamelessly running out to the mailbox everyday. :)

As I said before, I got the Chevron Corporation Scholarship (I never get tired of saying that.). With that particular scholarship I got to choose where I wanted to go. My first choice was the Discover Japan program, second was the Discover Greece program, and the third was the Discover Germany program.

Now, The Email told me that I got the scholarship. (Woohoo!) It did not tell me, however, if I got my first choice for the program. Will I be living on one of the many islands of Japan? Going to Greece, where the nature of Western civilization was created? Or maybe I will go to Germany, the former home of the famous Albert Einstein.

Who knows? I’ll tell you one thing. I can’t wait to find out. :)

Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.
