IT'S BEEN FOREVER!

       Okay, so the last time I updated was like 50 years ago February 15th! Which was over a month ago! I'm so sorry ^.^

Well this past month quit a lot has gone on...


February 27th 

        I was notified that I'm a semi finalist for YES! This makes me quite happy because I wasn't selected as a semi-finalist for CBYX and I got selected for YES, they only choose 110 semi-finalist for 65 finalist spots. YES is my backup for Rotary, so if something bad happens and I am unable to go with Rotary and I am offered to be a finalist with YES then I will go with YES :)


March 7th

        I had my outbound orientation!!! I got to meet all of the other Rotary exchange students from Virginia which there is about 7 of us and I also met the other two outbounds from my district! Though no one else is going to Finland, I still had a blast! I also FINALLY met Abby!! (I know I already said I met her but I finally met her! 


March 16th 

          I attended my sponsor club's meeting! I spoke and told them about myself and my exchange. They were all super nice and I can't believe I have such a wonderful club! Also a few weeks ago my club donated $1,000 to my gofundme fundraiser (which if you click here you can also go donate) I had an amazing time!

March 20
(I know this is tomorrow but hey)

         Tomorrow I leave for my interview with YES! All 110 semi-finalist come to Chevy Chase where we'll be until Sunday and have interviews and workshops and also lots of free time! I'm pretty excited that I hopefully have a French interview! I can't wait ^^


Hopefully soon I'll be hearing from my host family that I'm still waiting for!!!
