Decisions

   

Recently in the past week I've had to make some hard decisions on where my life will go.

    On April 6, 2015 at 4:46 pm I received an email from YES Abroad telling me that I had been selected as a finalist and that I would be headed to the Philippines! I was beyond ecstatic because I didn't feel that my interview was amazing. What I think helped me reach finalist was my amazing group! So not counting Bethany as no one has contact with her, everyone in my group became a finalist!
Georgie- Oman
Natalie- Philippines 
(She got accepted into NSLIY China and took that)
Tlell- Turkey
Bethany- (Ahh no one knows!)

    So over spring break I had to really make a tough decision on whether I wanted to go to Finland as planned or take this amazing scholarship to the Philippines. Sunday night I wrote my email to YES abroad to let them know I was declining the scholarship. It was hard for me because holy shit I was awarded a prestigious scholarship! But I think I'm a better fit for Finland!


    I don't have much more news other then next year to ensure I graduate on time I'm taking US Government and English 12 online and (still have to hear from my Finnish school) Physic's at my Finnish school.

Until next time!
