Last Days Here

It's going to be pretty hard to say goodbye to everyone on Thursday but thankfully, I'll get to have some fun with them beforehand. This is what I have planned for the next six days:

Saturday: Paintballing with my friends and then dinner with Andi and Blair and Andi's Mum that night
Sunday: Lunch with the extended family and then Mum is taking me and Andi and Blair out to dinner
Monday: Last training(!) and hang at Dads place that night
Tuesday: Last day of school! Maybe a shared lunch in there somewhere
Wednesday: Mad rush to finish packing and Andi will come stay the night
Thursday: Pick Blair and Jazz up from school and head out to the airport.

So it's going to be a busy few days, and I'll be eating A LOT. I donated blood today because I may not get to do it again for a while, because their pernickety about travellers to Europe.

Badass

The excitement is building, I must say. I was looking through my school book and I could see some calendars I drew of the days left to my exchange and the days were in the 50's and 60's. Now we're down to single digits and the reality of it all is kind of hitting home. In a good way of course.

I e-mailed my host sister too, just telling her how excited I was to meet everyone, and she replied that my room and books are all ready for me! They'll be picking me up from the train station in Pau at 2p.m on the 8th - it's going to be great to arrive to a big family, ready room with things all ready.

No real reason for this post, just getting used to recording everything here. If this is a terrible blog please tell me, I am writing this for you guys to read, if it's useless I'll try to fix it :)

Also MASSIVE shout out to the brilliant, and good-hearted Daniel, who is Mrs Mockridges second favourite :)

Stay super,
Holly
