In the FyU-TchAR!
I have been accepted to teach english in France next year, starting in mid-September 2011! An amazing, scary, exciting, thrilling, and down-right terrifying thought! I will go. Of course. I can't find it in me to turn it down, but I will be leaving so much behind.
I suppose that is the risk we run. The Catch-22 of ramblings. One goes on to see something new and amazing and wonderful...but we ramble away from so much.
I will be leaving friends, family, the home I love more than anything. I'm even sad to be leaving Eugene, a city I really don't have that much particular affection for. But the people here. Oh how I love you all.
But really, I think that your support is why I can go. I know that even with another 7 months in France-land you all will still support me, send me emails, be happy when I get my scatterings together enough to send a postcard, and you will be waiting for me when I come back.
I promise tales of Normandy, bad jokes, worse puns, and some tales of what it will be like to put me in a classroom with adolescent children. An idea I'm still not sure is excellent, but I shall do my best not to corrupt the youth of France... Not too much at least. And me teaching english? I'd better learn how to spell... (as pointed out, with brutal truth and honesty, by my lovely little sister)
So to all I love, and the brave few who stumble back across this blog (which has gathered rather more dust than I intended it to this year...), thank you! I can't wait to share my Ramblings with you again!
