What I am most excited about for this trip is getting to spend time with my friends and getting to know the girls from other classes. I have gone to D.C. once before, for a leadership program in 6th grade, but I was on my own and too nervous and shy to properly enjoy anything. Now that I have grown up and am traveling with members of the Sacred Heart familia, I know that this time around, the experience will be that much more enjoyable. I am also thrilled to go site seeing and visit all of the iconic monuments. I am especially excited to see the Abraham Lincoln Monument because I find the architecture of it so grand and beautiful. It is definitely the perfect place for a photo opp. The only things that I am not so excited for are the early mornings and cold weather. However, with some coffee and a big cozy jacket, I think I can manage.
Ahhhh even just writing this pre-trip blog is getting me excited! As you can probably tell, I clearly have Washington D.C. on the brain. My expectations may be really high for this trip, but with the awesome group we have and the extremely cool teachers who will be guiding us on our adventure, I can almost guarantee this trip will be nothing less than extraordinary. Well I am off to go pack. I hope you all have a blessed Easter and incredible rest of spring break!
Washington D.C. get ready because Sacred Heart is coming your way!
