Darcy in Argentina: For once and for all...
http://darcyinargentina.blogspot.com/2009/04/for-once-and-for-all.html
For once and for all. I'm writing with some exciting news from abroad. I recently received word from AFS Argentina. That they have reviewed your application and have accepted you into their Year Program Summer/Fall Departure. So this is it. Lots of feelings inside of me, not quite sure how I feel. But for better or for worse, it looks like I will be stepping onto a plane to Miami (and then on to Buenos Aires) in 113 days, on July 28. Wow (deep breath.). But now we must pack up every piece.

http://darcyinargentina.blogspot.com/2009/03/to-be-myself-completely.html
To Be Myself Completely. So lately, no news. Nothing! Hmmm I'm still kind of confused, but oh well, things are good. I really don't know how I feel about my exchange. Most outbounds I've talked to are a little nervous, but mostly just extremely extremely excited. But. I'm. really REALLY nervous. I tear up just thinking about leaving! I know it will be great, know it will be the most amazing experience ever, blah blah blah, and I. Excited, somewhere in there. But mostly just anxious and afraid. And to be ...

Darcy in Argentina: Official (official?) acceptance!
http://darcyinargentina.blogspot.com/2009/03/official-official-acceptance.html
I am more or less officially accepted into the Argentina year program. (with an emphasis on "more or less"). Today in the mail I received a gigantic hulky thing from AFS. In it were the following:. Two letters to me. A letter to my parents. A huge packet ("AFS-USA Guides and Orientations: The AFS Guide for Participants Going Abroad with AFS"). Another huge (but slightly thinner) packet (".The AFS Guide for Families of AFS Participants"). However, a slight disappointment:. Okay So it's not the. Subscribe ...

http://darcyinargentina.blogspot.com/2009/02/finally-some-sort-of-news.html
Finally, some sort of news. What a boring blog! Sorry about that. I've really got nothing to report. Believe me, I'll be screaming when I do :). So it's been six weeks (seven weeks on Sunday) since I submitted my app and had my interview. And I haven't heard. From AFS for about a month, so I was starting to. well, not. But just want some sort of contact and acknowledgment. And this contact came two days ago on February 25. My advisor emailed me the following message:. Please sign form 2 attached below.
