Summer In a Week

It's been quite a fitful few months regarding the state of my summer and the future of my AIESEC experience.

But after lots of patience and agitation, my distress has finally paid off!!! In the end, I actually ended up with everything I had really hoped for, and I actually have to push away some really awesome opportunities.

Thursday: Accepted for the Explore grant to study French in Chicoutimi for 5 weeks!!
Friday: (all in a computer lab, RBB)
1. Got a call telling me I'm going to the Southern Cone for a CEED this summer!!!
2. Finally finished my stats project! (it just adds to the craziness)
3. Before leaving, checked my email to find out that I got on the IAT!!

So it went from squealing, to high-fiving my group-mates, to reminding myself that whatever is in the email, it's all for the best and I will go on, go on with the day smiling because I've got a very promising year still... and then squealing and going crazy again... all in a computer lab full of people trying to do their work... and then jumping around in the hallway and running to the AIESEC office...

Now that things are in a more definitive state, I am finally able to let my little heart plan everything for next few months and school year... which would not be good for my exams! I can hardly study... too much of checking flight tickets to Buenos Aires and reviewing financial realities of LCs...

Although I will have to decline an awesome 5 weeks to improve my French and helping out AIESEC Chitoutimi as a semi-CEEDer, I will probably be able to get the grant again for next summer, and it would be even more beneficial that I'll have gained even more experience on an int'l CEED to aid them (or another LC). Yay!


What an awesome end to a long... long... second last week of school... yippee!!!
