Departure Date

Unofficially, the departure date, as noted by a person's host family, is September 8, 2012. That shocks me. Not because I'm leaving for Germany, but from another perspective, that I will never live in my house for more than three months at a time ever again.

That is just mind boggling.

I feel quite unprepared, and the questions that I have can only be answered once I get there. Oh well, that's part of being an exchange student! Summer has actually been pretty lazy--but I have done some things to keep me going. Besides learning German and how to cook, I've also started reading up on database management. Yes, these are the weird things I do.

I was about to go to Bento Making class at the Japanese Cultural Center in DC, but there were no more spaces left :( Why do I always find out these things too late?

It's time to get my eyes sharpened.
