Good News!

I have quite a few good things to post about!

First off, I was awarded the CBYX scholarship! I'm so happy! I didn't think I would react too strongly, but I hugged my dad and started crying. Then I started laughing because I was crying (I'm not sure if any of you have experienced this, but I can say it's a weird mix of emotional release!).

Related to that, I pretty much have a departure date. With my congratulatory letter, there was a slip of paper that said I have an orientation in DC from July 19th to the 21st. So, I'll have to leave Wisconsin at the latest on the 18th. Having a real date is making things feel that much more real!

Then my prom was last night. I had a dress that fit me well, looked great and I loved my hair. Plus, my mom surprised me and my exchange friend with corsages that were beautiful (we both went alone). Prom itself was fun and post-prom was great, too!

So far, this is shaping up to be a great weekend!

Bis später!
