The Start of Everything

A few days ago, I was accepted to go to Korea next year on a NSLI-Y scholarship. The whole day I was expecting the e-mail, and checking to see if it had arrived every single moment possible. All of my friends wanted to know about it, and were more excited and nervous for me than I was for myself. I wasn't nervous or excited, which was weird. I forgot about the e-mail that afternoon though, when I was sitting with my procter, Ciciley (sp?), and watched Gilmore Girls, poped popcorn in the dorms new popcorn machine, and ate popcicles. It was friday night, so we were all going to go on a school trip to Gateway, a theatre and a square for shopping with a wholefoods and stuff. I came back to my room to change my jeans because I was wet all the way to my thighs because it had been raining all day long, and I was jumping through puddles having loads of fun on my way to all my classes. I checked my e-mail after seeing my computer on my bed, and I had recieved the long awaited e-mail. I was accepted. : D My friend, Aya came in my room screaming, gave me a hug and told everyone else on the hall. All the other international students from asia came to my room and were so happy, you'd think that it was them getting the acceptance letter. We went to the movie, and all the gross parts that I just couldn't bear to watch, I whispered to myself... "I'm going to korea, I'm going to Korea!" Now its the Wednesday after that and I've got about 8 minutes untill I have to call into a conference call to the few other people going to Korea next year. I'm pretty excited and can't wait to recieve more information. I don't really know whats going to happen next year because it was through the NSLI-Y websight. Well, off I go to the dorm phone! : D
