i will be leaving LA for Pago Pago (through honolulu) on July 15. i'm nervous. im scared. i feel unprepared. but i am excited for the year that lays ahead.
i may not know what it means to be a teacher but i believe that everyday that i prepare for this experience, every esl that i observe, every person that i talk to is teaching me something about the person that i will be when i step onto the island that will change my life.
i'm ready. i'm waiting. so much has to happen before july 15. how can i make it through everything. but i will. with the support of my family. the support of my friends. the support of people who believe in what i'm doing.
i thank you.

You are going to be amazing Drew!!!
ReplyDeleteAll your work there, along with the new experiences, are you going to teach you SO much about new customs/cultures, education (world-wide), and most importantly...about yourself. It will def be scary and intense but after a short time you will adjust, find your groove and it will be totally awesome (like in the literal sense of what that word actually means).
Congratulations on taking this HUGE leap of faith and we (all your friends) couldn't be happier for you.
