Oh wow that's a big move too! I'm going to leave my family in Boise for the first week of orientation and then fly home and drive with them during that week off before school actually starts. I love the acceptance but it would have been nice to have it a few months ago! Good luck with the visa and everything. Let me know if you research and find some good areas to live. It seams like every website is different as far as information on areas. It's very frustrating!
Oh, I see, but you know what..I heard we are doing somethiing after the orientation so it s not really a break. So make sure you plan everything right! =)
