I know it seems an age since I wrote about the selection camp but it took so long to just sink in I just didn't do any updates! I will now start to blog thick and fast.
The Friday following the selection camp, I came in from school to find a letter on the doorstep addressed to me. I studied the outside closely before turning it over and slowly breaking away the seal. I pulled out the paper enclosed. Quickly reading through the first page, I found the words I had been waiting for: "Congratulations, you have been selected to go to Japan!"
I read that over three times and it still hadn't sunk in. The rest of the night I was sat thinking and wondering how I had been chosen and whether I was dreaming or not. It sank in the next day when I started squealing and jumping repeatedly in a circle.

The countdown had started!
