Host family!

Alright...so everything went from moving at a glacial pace to...the space shuttle lifting off - nice analogy huh? What am I talking about?? Well, in the past week, I've gotten information about my visa that needs to be applied for, my host family, and the school that I'm to be going to! I'm not placed in Johannesburg anymore, but in Durbanville, Western Cape, which is a suburb of Cape Town - 15 minutes from the city and the beach! I'm very very glad things are starting to move along. What I'm waiting for now is the visa support documents from AFS. Once I have those, I'll throw those into my visa application, send it the consulate, and pray to God my visa comes back in time! Hmph - whoever invented visas is...how to put this nicely...stupid. Oh well. HOPEFULLY everything works out well!
