Hi! I know what I have to say today and I don't know if I can do it.
OK let's start.
Last year I finally decided to do this exchange experience and after I signed up I took a test, where I had to draw three different pictures, I didn't pass.
They said that I wasn't ready because of the my drawings showed something.
We didn't have time and I wasn't good at drawing the faces so I left it last and I couldn't finish. I was surrounded by good drawers so when I had to draw the tree I tried to cover it.
I'm happy that I didn't pass because with that company I couldn't come in America and meet the people that I met here.
That I changed, and with the new company, I actually had a meeting with a psychologist and she decided that I was ready, and now I'm here.
When I knew and I was sure what I was leaving for the entire year I decided to say goodbye to my friends meeting them of separate nights.
I spend the all summer saying goodbye to my friends and it was really sad.
But I never realized that I was really leaving until the last day when I put my staff in the car and I hugged my friends, then I can into the car. They were crying, the girls were and the guys were laughing, and when the car passed them I start to cry.
I was in the car with my mom and my sister and I'd never cried like this in front of them.
I went to say goodbye to my other friend and we cried together.
Now she is in England and I'm here.
It's all unreal until you're living it.
After dinner, the same night, it was the last dinner with my family, we went to the airport where I had to leave.
Other exchange student were there and fortunately I passed three days in New York with some of them so we could talk about ours prospectives.
Then I was in Cleveland, and just like Coca-Cola' commercial, I came down the stairs of the airport and my American family was there waiting for me.
I'll never forget how hard it is to say goodbye, to look at your life knowing that you're not living again for a long time.
