Audrey...pure happiness!

The day I found out I got accepted into the Cape Town study abroad program was a bit ironic, everyone always says with the good comes the bad. Within a five-minute time span I was enlightened with my acceptance and then informed I had strep. In one moment I was experiencing a state of pure bliss and the next I was experiencing a state of pain. I sent my best friend a text, “Two things: I have strep and I got accepted!!!!!!!!!!” I was sure to share the most important and exciting news for last, so instead of dwelling on the bad I lightened it up with the news I had been patiently waiting on for a week. I called my mom next, quickly explained I had strep and the process I would have to go through to get rid of it and then I went quiet for a second and said, “but on a better note I heard back from study abroad.” And from there on out it wasn’t even like I was sick because everything else was just so perfect. In less than three months I would be on a flight to South Africa to begin a new chapter in my life for the next three and a half months. Pure happiness
