Here goes nothing...

I have a crazy new path for my life. For the next year I will be studying in another country across the ocean.  I have no idea where I am going, I don’t know the language I will be speaking, and I have NO IDEA how I am going to pay for this; but every fiber of my being knows that this is the right thing for me to do.

A boy I knew had cancer, and unfortunately in May at the age of 18 he passed away, but what he always said was, “Live life to the fullest, and have fun.” That is what I am going to do this year. I need to have experiences, enjoy myself, try new things, meet new people, and really live; because life is TOO short, and this may be my only chance!!

This year I am going to do something completely different. It will be hard. I will graduate college a year after my friends, I have to miraculously save up 7,000-9,000, I will be away from everyone I love for a year and I will have to spend A LOT of time before I leave learning a new language. I will have to make a lot of sacrifices to go on this exchange, and like I said I don’t know how I will do it, but I am letting go, and letting God and hoping that it will work out!


I am so excited to see what the next year will have in store for me, so if this is me going crazy, I don’t ever want to go back. Here goes nothing!
