4. I had
never felt that anxious before. There
were only few hours until I would be on my way to the biggest adventure of my
life so far. I had really mixed feelings, one moment I was so excited and couldn't wait, but only few minutes later I would be crying my eyes off and begging
my mom not to let me go. Finally the moment everybody had been waiting for was
here.
The airport
was full of people heading to vacations, business trips and some people saying
goodbyes to their love ones. I was one of those who had to leave and say
goodbye to everything that was important to me. Now looking back to that
moment, I could honestly say that if I have had an option to stay home with my
family and friends I would have probably done that, because I was so scared of the
future. I had never been away from my family more than couple weeks and now I
was going to spend 11 months with total strangers.
After crying
for hours I was finally ready to stop worrying and start enjoying this
wonderful opportunity again. At the end of the day not everyone got the chance
to spend a year abroad as an exchange student. My life was going to change for good and I
knew that it wasn't going to be easy, but totally worth it.
