For my classmates I hope the best. I want everyone to get as much out the trip as they hoped to get out of it and more. I hope everyone gets along; it will be a long 3 months if there is conflict.
My hopes for Heather and Tom, I hope that you both have an enjoyable time as well. I think that not only is it a trip for the students but also an experience for you.
When thinking of what I hope for myself I would have to say that I want to do as much as I can. Travel as often as money and time allows and just enjoy getting wrapped up in a new culture. I want to do something that I may never get another chance to do. I hope to come out of this knowing more of who I am as a person and growing from the experience.
The things that I am nervous about, hmmm, well I’m nervous about being away from home for 3 months without being able to go home on weekends. I get nervous about little things as well such as losing my luggage, getting lost in a foreign country, running out of money and the weight limit on luggage. I’m nervous about being a larger city; going from being in Rindge to a European city is going to be a lot different and that’s something to worry about. Another issue that doesn’t seem like it should even be an issue is my security blanket (image below). I have a major fear of losing it. It does sound silly but it’s serious to me. I’ve had this blanket my whole life and I can’t go 3 months without it but losing it would be worse. So as of right now I’m thinking of the possibility of cutting it in half, leaving half in the U.S. and taking the other half abroad. I don’t know if I will cut it in half but it’s still a few weeks before leaving.
My Blanket <3
It’s going to be an awesome trip. I can’t wait!
Omg, I'm nervous about losing my stuffed dog Barkly too! I can't decide weather to bring him or not, on one hand if anything happened to him I'd die on the other I've never not slept with him...and I'll probably want him twice as much when I'm abroad.
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how relived I am that someone else has the same dilema, lol. ^_^
Haha, i have a rabbit named bunny who is always with me! Since I live in California I fly a lot, back and forth from school and home, so I always take bunny on the plane with me! It made me nervous about losing her at first, but I always bring her with me so she will definitely be coming to Vienna!
ReplyDeleteI think that cutting your blanket in half is your best bet. If you don't lose it then you can always sew it back together again. We are going to have such a great time, and we better get along haha.
ReplyDeleteI plan on traveling a lot while I'm there. I hope we can all organize weekend trips so we can get the most of our stay =]
ReplyDeleteIm bring my stuffed dog Brownie, and my blanket too ^_^ I'm not worried about loosing them cuz i know they mean so much. I bring them everywhere with me, and I've traveled with them before, and always put them in my carry on.
