This year I am going to Germany, I am going as an exchange student for a whole year and there I'll be there alone with out any friends or family that will help me guide my life in a new direction. Now that the time is drawing nearer I am realizing that holy Sh** this is real. The world is much bigger than the fishbowl town of Juneau were tourist come and go like fish food flakes and dissolve away. To be honest I'm terrified of what is to come. This is a rare sighting of a Indian going on the other mans land, and fighting his way through the concrete woods and metal buffalo. I am so frightened that the world is so huge and I am this small little boy that is just a pine needle. Also my senior friends are gone and learned that my time is near as well and I have to grow up. That's why I am terrified to go to Germany across the pond I have to grow up and leave the people I love behind for awhile and come back more mature than them. Being an emotional person can make you stronger than it should be, and it sucks.
