BITS + PIECES


bits + pieces. {a bit of weekend fun.}

one. daydreaming on the porch. two. breakfast. three. yum. four. nuggets. five. barbeque. six. homemade ice tea. seven. lazy cat. eight. homemade potato wedgies w/mom. nine. after chasing the ice cream truck. ten. a silly little brother.

What with all the waiting and anticipation with my abroad program to Germany, i've been in a mellow/happy, nervous/anxious mood. Days like these keep me sane and extremly happy that I have the life I do.

Have a great weekend!

Pre-Departure Orientation.

So, last Sunday was the first orientation of my program! It was in Livingston New Jersey which is only a 45 minute drive from where I live. We left at 8.00 to get there. It started at 9:30 and we got there at 11:00. That's three hours.Oh my. We got so lost, it was horrible. It was my fault, I was navigator and - in a car - I have the navigational skills of a rock. But, OH BOY, when I got there, I was so very, very happy!

 The people there were very cool. There were four people that were presenting all the information to the student group. Two of them had  spent a year abroad in Germany, which is the same program that I'm doing! I couldn't have had a better opportunity to asked all the questions I did. It was fun and the people were great!

I still can't believe this is really happening. It's so surreal. =]
