Global Student Anticipation and Expectation

Good Morning!

I decided I want to get this as quickly done as possible because I still have a lot to do in these next 2 months. So, bear with me or don't even read at all, I could care less. I will conquer these courses either way.

So, let us begin our journey.

3.Timpview- I'm gonna miss that school so much.

1.Mormons being everywhere

2.creepy people

3.our food

5. This is hard... Probably all the stress at home.

E. My greatest single challenge overseas will be: Probably fitting in. That goes along with being able to express my self in another language, and culture. I don't like to admit it ever but I'm a bit shy when first meeting people. I have to trust one before I can actually express my true self in front of them. That'll be a big challenge. Also, missing my cross country team. I love that team and sport so much.

We will definitely see what happens.

This list was kind of what came right off of my head, not thoroughly thought through. But, it is the truth. Hope you enjoy the colors atleast
