Bonjour! Wow, it has been so busy these past few weeks! With our 18 week assessments and the Holiday, I've been very busy. Thanksgiving was very lovely. I spent it with my Dad and his girlfriend. To me, Thanksgiving is just a day to remind us to be thankful. I think we all know that us Americans like to hurry hurry hurry. Sometimes we are going so fast that we forget to give thanks and express our appreciation. It reminded me that although I need to keep busy with all my fundraising, that I need to take time to spend time with my friends and family personally. Last week my Gramie helped me sell chocolate and candles to people around her house. I was very thankful that I got to spend the day with her, as well as fund-raise. I am so greatful and thankful for all of those who are reading my blog and supporting my dream of traveling and becoming a Student Ambassador. Your donations, kind words, and advice have been so nice. Every sort of support is amazing. Thank you all very much!!
I have good news to share as well! Last week I was depositing donations, chocolate and candle funds, and babysitting money into my account, and I have just gone over $2,000! I am so thankful for this as well! I have a little over 2/7 of the funds that I need for my trip! I thank everyone who has contributed to that. I also thank those who could not send a donation, but who sent their good lucks and nice letters.
With Christmas and the New Year's coming up, I send out my warm wishes to everyone. I will post another update in the next week or two! Thank you all for your time, and have a good day.
PS, Our first official People to People meeting got pushed to December 20th. I can't wait o share of my experience!
