First Time Going to Florida!

The title is quite misleading, I haven't been to Florida, and I'm not going until June. I wrote a persuasive essay talking about letting me go to Florida. It's run by the company WorldStrides®. It's a five day trip, where we get to swim with dolphins and learn and other things. It's supposed to be educational, but I think it's mainly fun. My friend is going too, and I can't wait. I've never been to Florida before, and I'm really excited to go. I have to wait all the way until June though, basically 7 months. That's half a year! I feel so impatient. A few of my classmates are going too. I promised to get at least top 5% in AMC8 and this is my first year doing it, so I'm not sure I can, but let's hope for the best. I also promised to get at least into the MathCounts individuals, which is the top 10. They chose 16 people in our grade that tried out, and I got in, but they have to eliminate 6 people. We have to take tests and then they take our averages, and take the 10 best, and the top 4 get into team and all of the top 10 get to do the individual round. I hopefully can beat 6 people that got into the 16 people. I didn't promise that much, but it's still gonna be hard to get to. As I've probably said about a billion times, I'M SUPER EXCITED TO GO TO FLORIDA!!! I've never been there in my life and I'm super duper excited. My friend promised to just do what her parents asked her to go, and she got to go! My other friend is going to Europe at the same time of the Florida trip so sadly she cannot go. Another one of my friends is going to Florida too! It's going to be really fun.
