GUESS WHO IS GOING TO FRANCE! ME! I am Jolisa, and I am super excited to be starting this blog. I invite you to experience with me my journey leading up to and through my junior year in France. I am starting this blog as a tenth grade student at the Westminster Schools in the weekend before finals. I should be studying. But I am esctatic, overjoyed to find my myself with this immense opportunity that the majority of my friends and most people my age will never experience, and I want my brother, dad, mom, and friends to experience with me . I will be spending my entire junior year in France. I will leave Atlanta in September to return in May thanks to School Year Abroad (SYA), an organization that founded schools in France, Spain, Italy, and China to give American high schoolers full language immersion experiences. I will attend a private school and take all my courses in French (except English and Math). I will live with a "yet to be determined" French family. I will live and play in the picturesque city of Rennes, which is about 2 hours west of Paris. I'm blogging in order to document my journey in word, picture, and maybe even song if I come across some good music.
Thanks for visiting this blog, and I hope you'll stay with me as I create more entries. This is already so fun, and it is only going to get better. Feel free to comment on any post that you connect with, and if you find yourself able, you can help me in my journey by making a donation at www.gofundme.com/ibelievejolisacan . |
