Today was a great day full of meeting tons of amazing intercultural and international people. Despite the fact that we were forced to sit in a crowded ballroom all day, it was a great day. I met people of all varieties and all different language levels, all of us embarking on the same journey to Germany together. It is great to know all of these fellow Americans who are experiencing the same things as me, and as exchange students we stick together. It's crazy to think the next time I will see everyone- most of us will be nearly fluent. All 80 of us have really bonded in the matter of hours, so I can only imagine what it will be like after sharing so many similar experiences. We are all in positive and progressive mindsets, which is a good alternative to the nervousness I felt before. We are all very ready for the next few days and are beginning to understand all of the real factors that will impact us as we live abroad. As sad as I was to leave earlier today, the experience I have had and will have, makes all of that sadness disappear. The hardest part was just leaving my home, and once I overcame that I was off! Ich bin wirklich so begeistert!
