Departure Date
I just got a letter from ASSE with my flight information.
We have to be at the airport in Washington, DC (Dulles) on Sunday, August 3 from 1-4 pm. The international flight is at 5:23 pm on August 6 and we arrive in Frankfurt, Germany at 7:10 am on August 7, their time. It’s a 7 hour and 47 minute flight, by United if the information on expedia.com is accurate at all…Interestingly enough, I can click to view the seat plan from expedia.com, and all the more upfront (though still economy) seats are filled. Exciting! We’re supposed to send in the details of how we’re going to get to DC to ASSE.
I’m super excited because I can finally plan my summer. My parents may decide to take a week long vacation on the east coast before August 3. That’s it. Sweet!

Hey, you posted a comment at my blog, thought I’d post one back.
Do you know where you are going in Germany yet? Can you speak German already?

aiya. does this mean you + your parents won’t be going to Sophia’s wedding?
@ Kevin: I’m double-commenting this on your blog. The answers are no, and no. D: But the other two people at my interview that were selected got their host families this week, and last week, so maybe my turn shall be next week!
I’ll be sure to e-mail you if I need anything…Well, I was wondering what you think about GIVE?
@ Jenny: I’m sure my parents will, but we’ve known for a while that I’d be leaving first week of August so I wouldn’t be able to attend the wedding. xP
You guys leave one day after us! =)
AND you are arriving in my city. XDDD Yay for Frankfurt!
IT IS AWESOME that you NOW have your family. =P Perhaps you should write a blog about them!
…
My family hasn’t replied yet. XD
Oh wait, never mind. We go on the second. XDD I thought that you meant that you guys leave on the third. Sorry. =P Do you know where the language camp is yet?
I will blog about them soon!
And no, I don’t. D: Since we are arriving in Frankfurt, I thought that would mean the language camp would be around there, but since it’s so much easier to get around in Germany, who knows…or perhaps another flight to Hamburg? XD
