17

I was my 17th birthday last Friday, and I realized something. For my birthday, I didn't want a car, a laptop, a cello, a big party, or something common like that; I want to save up money to go on a foreign exchange program. Of coarse, I realize that because of this I may be giving these things away, but that's okay. Going to Brazil would mean a lot more to me than having a car for college -I can always get around that- and I don't particularly like cars.

For my birthday, I am asking for donations to my foreign exchange. You can donate to me with a PayPal account with the chipin widget on the right. Please consider donating -even the smallest donations are a big help.
-----when I come back, I may bring you back a souvenir from Brazil!
