4 more weeks. Ish I think...

something like that anyways. I'm not sure of the exact date seeing as I don't have my ticket yet but I'm guesstimating 4 weeks. So there. Stick that in your juicebox. and feed it too a small child. Anyways... 4 weeks. wow. It seems like not that long ago I was in Ap Euro bouncing up and down wondering in sheer impatient agony where in the world I was going. Now, 31 weeks later, I'm going to Hungary. Budapest. More Hungary. I have amazing host families, and an amazing school, and an amazing outlook on the next year at least :-) Ever since the ski trip in January my life has been changed and only for the better. I have made amazing friends from all over the world, been happier than I ever thought was possible, ooh and the strange feeling of being incredibly lonely and loved at the same time after Rotary functions/hanging with Rotary people.

Yes, I'm incredibly excited and grateful and yet at the same time terrified. I think. I hate not knowing, it's terribly unnecessary and bothersome but whatever. Roll with the punches and all that jazz. But really, think about it, it's like the middle school I never had to go through. Except for they're all speaking Hungarian, but the whole scrutinizing my every move, not knowing anyone, not knowing who's who whats what etc. But whatever that's the best part. Smile and "ezt hodmonjak magyarul" everything right? (I think I misspelt the 2nd word but it makes sense in my head) so yeah.

Anxious, scared, excited thank you Rotary thank you. hahaha

Boo! Yeah, you're terrified, don't pretend like you're not. :)

Okay so...

I had started a blog like 2 months ago (katieishungary.blogspot.com) but then, little miss genius over here forgot the password,email address, etc. So yeah epic fail. Anyways. In a little less that 50 something days I will be on pretty much the biggest adventure I can think of. Thats right. Rotary District 5130 is sponsoring me to go live and embrace the Hungarian Culture to its fullest in Budapest (D1911) for a year. I think it's finally started to hit me in the last couple of days. I'm crazy excited, terrified but when it comes down to it all I'm incredibly happy and maybe a few other things that the English language cannot express.

So yeah, I will be keeping this blog (for reals this time!) throughout the course of my exchange keeping you updated on anything and everything. I hope you (and I) enjoy the process.
