I can hardly believe that within the next few months, I will be moving to Germany for nearly a year. I feel like the luckiest girl alive, like I am living in a fairy tale, or some action-adventure movie. Between wrapping up finals, spending as much time with family and friends before I leave, mentally preparing myself, and attempting to imagine how I am going to pack my entire life into two suitcases, you could definitely say I am one busy girl. Not to mention learning German, I've been studying on and off for the past few months, and now that I'm finally finished with school for the year I'll be able to spend a good deal of time practicing. I have hours of listening tapes, stacks of books, and a couple online courses to take. So far I've fallen in love with the language and I absolutely love practicing for the year ahead. It can be a little overwhelming thinking that I don't know the language that well before I leave, but I also know that I will learn a TON at language camp and that I can't let fears hold me back from accomplishing amazing things. Lots of people have asked me, how can you do this, won't it be hard? And the answer is yes, I know and accept that this will probably be the hardest thing I have ever done. And all I can say is, bring it on!
As the Germans would say, Auf Wiedersehen!
