Ciao, salut, hola! I am in such a positive mood. Summer is almost here, and I will be on a plane in 50 days - making my dreams come true! Yesterday was our LAST P2P meeting before we leave (we will be having a Bon Voyage picnic in June). And I am very close to have 100% of my trip raised.
At our meeting, we talked about the right choices we should make and the consequences we could face if we don't make the right choice. Especially being a Student Ambassador for America, we are expected to be on our best behaviors and being respectful, and personally I think that's amazing! I want the whole world to see that the United States does have respectful and good-minded people. We also did a simulation for understanding other culture's rules/beliefs/customs. Americans are different compared to Europeans, and we are going over there to make connections between the cultures! We can't expect them to change their ways for us, and they can't expect us to change for them - but we can always find ways to make it work and understand. Our delegation connected a lot today between the bag presentations, the jokes and laughs, the simulation, and being together. I am so happy to be able to have them as fellow delegates and travelling buddies. Another exciting thing was that we got our hotel information (thanks to my awesome friend, Gabby!)
Fundraising! I am THRILLED to announce that I only have $250 to raise! That means I have raised about 96% of my trip's funds! I am confident I will be able to raise the 4% in the next 50 days☺. TO everyone whose donated to me and helped me: THANK YOU SO MUCH - I would not have gotten this close without you! A special thanks to the Corrells whom donated a generous amount to me for the second time! That made me speechless and very thankful. With being it being said that I still need $250, I am having a garage sale Friday, May 29th and Saturday, May 30th! There will be a lot of things (of mine and things donated), please stop by! Contact me for my address.
I hope everyone has gotten some time to spend time outside, as it is gorgeous. Thanks to everyone for their time! I really appreciate it. In 5 days, I will have a complete Itinerary, and I am so excited for that, as well. Time does fly by, and as impatient I am for this trip, I am really trying to just be patient and enjoy the now, because the "now" is beautiful and irreplaceable. Have a great week! I will be back for another update soon! :)
