On the 18th and 19th of January we had an Orientation Meeting in Indianola, a city about two hours away from Washington. It was a Meeting for all the Inbounds of 2013/14 and future Outbounds, or as we call them "Newbies", of 2014/15. There are positive and also negative aspects about it:
Starting with the bad things: It made me realize again that there are already new exchange students for next year and that the end is not far away.
The good thing was that I met so many amazing people on that weekend. I got to see my loved inbounds again and got to know a lot of new people who are now a big part of my life. I don't know what it is, but you get close with exchange students really fast and that is a very special thing.
On Saturday we had speeches all day long and later in the evening a DJ came and we danced for hours. It was so much fun, because I love dancing so much! After that some friends and I talked until two in the morning. The next day we had speeches again until noon and then the inbounds had free time while the outbounds got a presentation together with their parents.
I am so thankful for getting the chance to meet so many awesome teenagers on my exchange!
Now some pictures which pretty much describe the fun we had…
