Two weeks to go and we will be living it up in SU! How exciting is that? Very if you ask me! Sorry updates have been slow, everything has been happening all at once now the time is coming a lot closer!
Our flights have been booked and we officially head over for a year in America on the 23rd August flying from Manchester to Philadelphia and then from there to Syracuse!
These past couple of weeks have been so busy with everything going on, I've even had the chance to speak to my new room-mate who lives in LA! How wicked is that?! I always said from the word ‘go’ that I wanted to be friends with someone from LA so that I could hopefully visit one day. :D Now my room-mate is from Los Angeles! Instant Bestos ;) if you ask me, haha!
So far a few messages have been sent between us and I cannot wait to get out there! Judy, our surrogate mother, has been messaging us too, she is so excited to meet us which excites me too!
Our courses have been selected for first semester, I have chosen to study - Arts & Ideas, Economic Ideas and Issues, World Cultures, Public Service Practicum and Sociology of Families. So far with my schedule the way it is, from what I've kind of worked out, I haven't been given a Place on the Arts and Ideas course, However theres always next semester to apply so I'm not too disheartened by it! Anyway, who would be with a room-mate from LA! ;)
I've done most of the sad stuff now like saying goodbye to my friends from home as i know, with work and everyone going on their own little holidays and adventures, Im not going to see them before I start on my big adventure, but as sad as it really is saying goodbye, its only nine months.. and I know I'm going to have the best time ever! :D
Mum and Dad have booked their flights so I've always that to look forward to as well as Graeme has booked time off work to come visit too! So already, for those wanting to come visit, December is fully booked, sorry!
Anyway, sorry it was short this time but with emails to be sent and bags to be packed! I better go, i’ll blog again soon!
Thanks for reading!
