This will be my first post on our new blog.

I cannot believe that this adventure has come so close!

I remember the day in Marts when i recieved my first acceptance letter, telling me that I was going to be a UWC student at the college Red Cross Nordic (Norway). I do not think I will ever find the right words to describe the feeling I had inside when I first read the letter. If it was not because I was sitting in my class during a math lesson, which was very hard to pay any attention to afterwards, I would definitely have started crying - of happiness of course - but I had not told any of my class mates that I was applying, so I saved my tears until I got home. When all tears was out, I smiled non stop for the next many days, if not weeks, and the only thing I had on my mind was "United World Colleges Red Cross Nordic", even when I had to sleep. I dreamed about it every night the first few weeks!

The first thing I did was to count the exact number of months and days until I had to fly towards my biggest dream. At the time there was a little more than 5 months left.

Luckily these five months has flown away, and I am now sitting here in my summerhouse enjoying the last 22 days of my summer vacation, using most of the time to consider whether I have to pack in the red suitcase og the black one, how many towles I need, who my roommates are, that I have to remember calling my great granmother before leaving, etc.

Let the adventure begin!

(This was the first picture I saw of the college, and I still find it hard to believe that this "paradise" is the place I am going to consider as my home!)
