My Decision To Go

I first found out about this experience my freshman year during fall semester in my SFL human development class. I told my mom and dad I wanted to go but they didn't really think I was serious. I still had the program in my mind but kind of put it off to the side. The next semester (winter 2012) I got a job at BYU Laundry and there was a girl that worked with me named Megan. She did the romania internship and re perked my interest into going. This time I was serious and convinced my mom and dad. They agreed and so I had made the decision that I was going!
