Before the trip


I heard the announcement when I was in class. There was told about a Comenius-project and about a trip to Sicily. Immediately I realized that it was my thing. I just wondered if it is OK to my parents… If I am chosen, somebody will come to our home for a week, too. I started right away to think what I could write to my application letter about myself. The letter had to be given to teachers and the best ones will be invited to interview.

Expectations: trip… Italy… new friends… wonderful experiences… But maybe I shouldn´t expect so much if I even didn´t get chosen. Then I will be disappointed…

I heard the announcement when I was in lesson. The Comenius-choices to trip to Sicily had been done! I hoped the best but scared the worst. After the lesson I rushed to the notice board, and there were the names. On my way I felt that it would feel very bad if I wasn´t chosen.  Before this day I had tried to hide these feelings and think without opinions. Last step and I saw the board...  I shocked... I saw my name. I HAD BEEN CHOSEN!!!

Right away I wanted to know who my host is... At the same time I also was little worried how we get along...  Is she girl or is he boy???!! I WANT TO KNOW!!! I chatted with everybody and tried to get to know them... First I thought the grammar in msn.... But actually it wasn’t so big deal. I chatted with someones A LOT and hoped that somebody of them would be my host. Actually I don´t care so much will I stay with the girl or the boy.
