China

Jun 22, 2004 12:44

I am about to leave for China, everything in our house is packed. we have a 6 a.m wednesday flight out of Indiana. However, i think i should be more excitied. I was soo excitied about 2 weeks ago, but now that its the day before i Leave i feel like a want to slow everything down. Its a strange feeling, knowing i will be gone, and going to a country for 2 months where i barely know the language. I'm already starting to miss all my friends, my room, and my house. I'm also nervous about meeting my relavtives for the first time in four years. I'm whole self has changed since 4th grade. What will they think of this tanned, golden haired asain. These are some of the things i want to accomplish in CHina

1. Learn Chinese better
2. Connect with my relatives more
3. Understnad teenage culture in China more
4. Explore new places
5. Learn China's history
6. Do a LOOOT of shopping
7. Have a blast, and cherish the time i have there

So, I guess i'm going to take a deep breath, and dive into the pool i was born in, but know barely anything about. But when i come out of this pool. I hope to have grasped a whole new outlook of it.
