Moving the Fish Tank

This is something I’ve been dreading about for a good while, and not just because my 40 gallon tank is heavy as hell even when the water is drained.

Fish keeping is a hobby my best friend got me into a few years ago, and its become something that is super important to me. I’ve spent a lot of time and energy, not to mention money, on it. My tanks and supplies take up a lot of space in my room. While I originally wanted an axolotl for my 40 gal, I chickened out and instead chose to do a tank with nano fish instead.

I love this tank and what I’ve been able to do with it, and I still have plans for more fish and decor to put in it, so it’s sad to be putting it in a new home (temporarily) and not be able to finish the project just yet. At the same time, I wouldn’t want to leave it in anyone else’s care. Ro taught me most of what I know about fishkeeping and has helped me when I’ve lost fish and been there when I bought most of them. They have several tanks of their own and I trust them to take care of it.

It’s still sad to see it go though.

Here’s a bit of a picture dump

First we pulled out as many of the fish as we could (as well as plants attached to rocks or wood) to minimize the amount of stress they feel during transportation. If you stress out a fish to much, it could kill them.

Then we did the awful and painstaking thing of getting it downstairs and into the car (mom, thank you so much for the help lol). We drove to Ro’s with the hazards on and somehow managed to get it inside and on the landing and then we waited for Ro’s parents to get home so we could get their dad to help get the thing upstairs and onto the dresser we got from the ReStore yesterday.

They took me home after a little while and finished filling the tank back up with water, and now the dresser I was using for it is very empty.

Another thing done, still more things to do before I go.

Less Than Two Weeks Away

I finally got my visa approved and flight stuff figured out! I’m leaving on August 15th, arriving August 16th in Brussels. I’m not sure if I’m getting picked up in Brussels or if I’m finding another way to Lessines, but it’s definitely very real now.

I keep switching between incredibly nervous and very excited. But there’s a lot of stuff I have to get done before I go, like moving my aquarium to my friend’s house, cleaning my room, deciding what to take and what to leave, etc. Packing is going to be a nightmare.

But I’m also really excited to meet the people I’ve been talking to, go to school, eat food, and lots more. My friends are not happy about it lol

We’re doing a hang out on Saturday so I can see everybody before I leave, and it’ll be a lot of fun. Then the next Saturday I’ll be in another country halfway across the world! My best friend has already decided they’re going to miss school the Friday morning that I leave so they can come to the airport with me, which will be nice and totally not emotional at all. /s

I did find out that there’s another rotary kid that’s on my flight to Brussels, so it’ll be really nice to have someone to talk to and go through customs with. I’ve only been through customs once on a school trip I took to Paris and London a few years ago, but we were sheparded through by the teacher so it will be fun to do on my own this time :,)

Anyway, I have salad to got eat and a fish tank to move so I’m going to go do that lol

Personalizing Rotary Blazer

This is a fun side project I finally had the motivation to do, and I’m so happy with it so far! We got some patches at the River Market a few weeks ago and I’m super happy with them! They’re iron-on patches so I need to sew them in to make sure they don’t fall off, and I have a few more ideas for embroidery stuff to do. I don’t want to take up too much space because I need lots of space for pins. Rotary kids all have their own pins to hand out and trade, so collecting them is a whole thing. You can see my personal pin on the right collar! I’ll keep yall updated as I add more stuff to it!

Some of my friends are also doing embroidery on it- you can see the stars made in trans colors, which my friend Sam did, and the watermelon on the sleeve cuff which my friend Kellin did. I think it’s a fun way to keep them with me and also let them be a part of this new part of my life!

The Beginning + Application Process

I just now realized I haven’t talked about the application process at all!

By the time I leave in mid-August, it will have almost been a year since I applied to be in the program, and longer since I first reached out to Rotary about it.

I’ve wanted to do a foreign exchange program for years, though I’d never really made a solid effort to figure out how to do it until May of 2024. It’s always been this distant idea that I never thought I’d actually get to do, whether that was because I doubted my own abilities to succeed in a program that seemed designed for people so different from me, or because I just didn’t think I could.

I remember the first time I seriously thought about it was at a Royals baseball game. This was before I knew how baseball worked and I was bored out of my mind, so I was spacing out when the thought came up. I looked up a website that listed a bunch of different programs. I remember wanting to show my mom, or ask about it, but I was so anxious. I didn’t have as much of a handle on my anxiety back then, so the question was just stuck in my throat for a while until I blurted it out. She thought it was a cool idea, but we didn’t talk about it after that.

I asked my French teacher about it a few times, but never did anything with the information he gave me. The one time I finally did act on it was around May 2024. We’d already done enrollment and picked classes for the next year by then, and we were doing a final round of meetings with our academic counselors to talk about career ideas, any class changes, etc. I mentioned that I was interested in doing a foreign exchange because I was considering teaching abroad, and it was an experience I’ve wanted to do for a long time. I hadn’t expected anything to come of it, I considered it a pipe dream by then, so when she gave me the contact info for the Rotary district’s outbound coordinator, I wasn’t expecting to do anything with it.

But I did send him an email because I was curious and wanted to see what that process would look like. I learned it was still possible for me to do an exchange, and after talking to my parents about it, I took it more seriously. I went back to my academic counselor and we reworked my class schedule for the next school year, I enrolled in online summer classes to catch up on the credits I would need and we set the ball rolling for me to graduate from high school a full year early.

A lot of the process involves waiting for something to happen or for an event. It was very painful. I was looking toward my future but I still had stuff to do in the moment to make it happen. This was the first time I’d had a real long-term goal. Before then, I didn’t really know what I was going to do with myself. I still don’t, to some extent. It felt so exciting to have something so big to look forward to, yet everything was moving so slow and I still had to sit through boring eschool lectures about handling money and English grammar that I’d already learned at least two times before (though, I like to learn, so it’s hard for me to be truly bored when I’m learning. I really did like the romanticism unit in ELA).

When late August finally rolled around, I was able to start the first application. It was pretty long, and there were a lot of things to do. Lots of personal information. I had to write a letter to my future host families, and my parents can tell you how much I struggled with it. It’s hard to talk about myself like that. I had to answer a specific set of questions and I ended up color coding the draft to make sure everything was answered lol.

After sending in that application, I had to do a small interview with some representatives from the club that would sponsor me if I got in. It was a lot easier than I expected. They asked me questions about myself, why I wanted to go, where I wanted to go, and they ended up pulling my mom over from where she was sitting nearby to ask her some questions as well. Overall it was very easy-going.

I passed this part of the application, and the next part of the process wasn’t until December, so there was a lot of more waiting. It felt so strange to do something as normal as school while all this was going on in the background. I went to some of the meeting of my Rotary club and volunteered for some of their events. I took a communications (speech) class in school to work on social anxiety, auditioned for ECKMEA (district choir), and went about my days as normal.

But through all this, there was also the simmering anxiety of if I didn’t get in. At this point, I was set to graduate early whether I got in or not. I hadn’t thought about college, I barely knew what I was going to do with my life, and the next year of my life was riding on this because I didn’t really have a plan B. I made myself feel better by saying I could maybe move my last PE credit to next school year and get an extra semester, but whether I would have been able to do that or not was unclear. I wouldn’t be able to take some of the classes I had planned to take before I changed it all in May, and I was so scared of being done with school but having no clue what to do next.

So you can understand my nerves when December rolled around. This interview was much more in depth and much more intimidating than the first one. There were several rooms that the applicant switched through, each having three people from different clubs in the district who asked you different questions. Some of the questions were the same, and I talked a lot about my anxiety and how I was working on it and how I wanted to go to France, Belgium, or Sweden (I forgot that Switzerland also spoke French, I picked Sweden as my third because of how green they are there). One of the rooms had former exchange students, and one of the rooms had a licensed psychologist who asked more in depth about my anxiety and being transgender. I also got a pop quiz in French which I was wholly unprepared for and I ended up using the wrong tense because we were focusing on past tense in my French class at the time and I went into autopilot.

So all in all a good time.

There was one more room where they asked my parents about me, and from what they told me it went well.

I was told to expect a call later that night. I went to a friends house to celebrate being done with interviews and bake some cookies.

I ended up missing the call despite have my ringer on and my volume up. Still not sure how that happened. I called her back and left a voicemail and about thirty minutes later I got the call that solidified the next year of my life: I got in!

After that, it was more waiting. There wasn’t a whole lot to do other than finish high school and wait as they did their own thing in the background. It was a little frustrating how little information I had on the process after I got in, but there isn’t really anything I could have done with it anyway. We had a meeting in February where we talked more about next steps and where everyone was at, and we got some more information for things for us to do in the meantime. We had another meeting in April, where we presented a small slideshow in the language of where we were going and heard from a current exchange student, as well as our parents got to hear from a parent of a former exchange student. Our last meeting was in June, where we talked more about the next steps and heard from two more former exchange students.

I also learned that the girl going to Spain had had to do her fingerprints three separate times and still had to go in for a fourth time for her visa. To be fair, they did give us a paper describing what different country’s visa process’ looked like during interviews and Spain’s just said “you will cry.” Sounds pretty accurate from what I can tell.

Currently, I am waiting to hear back from the consulate on my visa so we can set up flights and I can figure out a more solid date for my departure. I’ve been able to speak to my first host family and hearing from them is so cool. It’s one thing when you’re waiting and waiting and it’s another thing entirely when you get to actually participate. It feels so real yet at the same time so fake. I’m trying not to think to hard about it and focus on the now so I can manage my anxiety about the whole thing. I have the inkling I’ll be doing that a lot this next year, but I’m not complaining in the slightest.

I am so excited, I’m going to learn and experience so much. It’s going to be so incredibly overwhelming and still so fun. I’m excited to see what kind of person I am after, because I doubt I’ll be completely the same. I’m excited to meet new people, make new memories, learn another language, and so much more. It’s a new chapter for me, one I’ve been thinking about for years, and it’s so exciting to see it finally come true.

Gifting

One of the things expected of me as a student traveling through the Rotary program is that I bring gifts for lots of different people, like the host families I’m staying with or the Belgian rotarians that have been helping me with the process.

Gifting is particularly stressful for me in general because of the expectations that usually surround gifting, especially during the holidays. Gifts are supposed to be thoughtful and tailored to the person, but it’s hard to do that when I don’t know these people very well.

The anxious part of me is telling me that I need to get every person a gift tailored to them, something they can enjoy for longer than the few seconds it takes them to process what it is. Something more meaningful. While on the other hand, the logical part of me (and my dad) just tell me to go to a tourist shop and get some touristy gifts, which does make sense.

So I’m doing a bit of both. For my host families I’m trying to find things that they might like and can use or enjoy for longer than the few seconds. I’m going to bring some different food things, like taco seasoning and American candy and things like that. I’m also finding some knickknacks that I think are interesting for other people.

Im a lot less anxious about it than I was when it was mentioned at a meeting in June, mostly because I’m not actively looking for gifts, more just finding them as I see them. Though there are a few things I still have planned for that I have to go find. :)

I’ll show what I have for gifts later in August when I’ve given them so I don’t spoil it for them, since I plan on giving them this account so they can see what I’m up to.

Bye for now !

Choir Camps

One of the things I do to keep myself sane in the summer is choir camps, and I have two that I have gone to for three years now.

They’re so fun and they allow me to do the thing I love (making music and singing with people) in a time that for me is very stagnant and lonely. It’s also really good for getting me out of my shell and out of my house.

I have done music in some capacity for pretty much my entire life, and I’m a little worried about my sanity this coming year.

At the same time, I’m going to miss the camp that I usually do in June because I’ll still be in school in Belgium, but I’m not sure if I’ll miss it as much because it won’t serve the same purpose of breaking up the monotony of summer break. I don’t know if I’ll miss the one I’m at right now, but I also don’t know if I’ll be allowed to come back as a participant because I’ve already graduated American high school and I’m not entirely sure how the rules work for that

Right now though, I’m making sure to enjoy my time here (as much as it is exhausting, socially and mentally) and make good memories! And find more music to love. :)

For reference- the June camp is run by Kontorei KC, they have a middle school, high school, and adult group. It’s a weeklong camp that sings at The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in downtown KC. The second one is called Konza Music Academy and it’s a shorter one, lasting only a few days, but it’s really fun! We stay in dorms on the K-State campus and get to see a lot of the campus.

Visa + Anxiety

Visas are stressful. It’s partially my fault considering we were slow with getting the process started when we got the information, but still.

There’s so many things to do and equally so little that it hurts my brain a bit to think about, and the time crunch doesn’t help. So far we have everything except a medical form we need to get notarized and appostilled, but our doctor is incredibly hard to get into on any less than several week’s notice so that’s been a bit of a fight.

I’m starting to get anxiety thinking about the trip. I’m not anxious about the leaving or the being there, I’m so excited about that, but I’m anxious about the people part. I have a nice amount of social anxiety and tend to be a people pleaser, so talking to my first host family has been a bit of a struggle because it’s hard to settle that anxiety when I don’t have any physical cues to go off of like I would normally. Of course that will change when I meet them in-person, but until then there’s not much I can do about it.

Also I feel like it’s going to be difficult to socialize at school because I’ll be struggling with the language for a few months, and I’m not used to making friends on my own. My best friend is an extrovert who found me in middle school and basically said “you’re my friend now!” and they did that for the rest of the friend group too, so trying to find friends will be interesting.

Though I am working on the social anxiety, I took a communications class this last school year and I’m currently working as a barista and I think it’s done a lot to help my confidence with small talk and talking to people, though I don’t know how that will translate to Europe.

We shall see lol

Limbo

One of the weird things about knowing I’m leaving in a few months is the kind of limbo it’s puts me in. A lot of things are changing for me, I’m going to a whole other country in about two months now for an entire school year, but things at home aren’t going to stop changing.

My parents plan on moving while I’m gone, and while that’s not really new or upsetting, it does mean that things wont be the same when I come home. I don’t really do well with change I didn’t facilitate, so it’ll be a rough adjustment. I’m hoping that I’ll be able to process it in the future or be distracted by all the things that it won’t bother me too much. But the idea of leaving everything has put me in a weird place.

I’ve started a new job to save up money for next year, so I’m meeting a lot of new people. I’ve also gotten a car to use in the mean time before I go, but I’m not sure what’ll happen to it while I’m gone, so my head has been in a weird “should I, should I not” sort of mindset.

Do I make friends at work, knowing that leaving while the friendships are new will make it really hard to maintain them?

Do I clean up and move things around in my room so I can finally decorate the way I’ve been wanting to for a little bit?

Do I put the money and effort into personalizing my car when I’ll only have it for a few more months?

I have an aquarium that I’ve been putting together for several months now, is it worth it to finish setting it up and getting the rest of the fish and decor I want for it when I’ll have to hand it over to one of my friends to take care of it while I’m gone?

I’ve had a lot of back and forth in my head about some of this. On top of that, a lot of my time right now is spent waiting for new information on the exchange, and while the ball has started rolling, it still feels like everything is happening so slowly.

I don’t usually like summer because I always have trouble staying connected to my friends, but this is one of the better ones I’ve had in a long time so far. I’ve been too busy to slip into hermit mode and it’s helped a lot with my mental health.

Basically, I have to remind myself that life doesn’t have to stop just because I’ll be leaving. I can still put stickers on my car, I can still make friends, and I can still finish my aquarium. Things will be weird for a little bit, but some things are worth the effort, even if they aren’t permanent.

Anyway, here are the stickers I ended up putting on my car :)

I had another one but the backing got to wet when I was deciding where to put it (it had just rained) so it tore when I tried to use it lol

KC Pride Parade

Yesterday was Kansas City’s annual Pride Parade! Happy pride month everyone!! 🏳️‍🌈

It’s always so fun to go and see it every year- it’s so cool to see so many people like me in one place and to get to celebrate with them.

It started raining in the middle of the parade, which was fine, then it started to downpour lol

My friends went home at that point, but my Dad and I stuck it out for the principle. The water started flooding over the curb and we had to pull our chairs back, but it was fun! There was a roller derby group and one of them rolled into the water to make it splash!

I’ll make sure to add some photos when I remember to do that lol

Graduating Early (The Feels)

The weirdest part of this experience for me right now is graduating early.

I am graduating early because it is unlikely that I will get any school credits from my time in a Belgian high school. By graduating early, I won’t have to worry about coming back and taking extra classes to finish and get my diploma.

Graduating is one of the biggest milestones for a teenager, as it signifies the end of your required education and the beginning of a new chapter in your life. One of the biggest things that brings out the feels is that you graduate with the same class you have (probably) spent a significant amount of time with. Graduation is the last time every person of your graduating class will be in the same room, ever. It is a huge deal for a lot of people.

Because I’m graduating early, I don’t get the same emotions in the same way. I’m excited to (not really) be done with high school. I’m excited to start this next chapter of my life. But I’m not doing it with my friends or my class. In graduating early, I lost the sense of togetherness that makes this moment special for so many American teens. I don’t know these people the same way I know my class. I didn’t go to elementary or middle school with them, I didn’t share the same classes or experiences with them.

Next year, my friends will make more memories without me. They’ll complain about teachers and assignments I didn’t have to do because of the wonky schedule I had to take to do this. They’ll watch the big show the journalism kids put together at the end of the year, and they’ll walk across the stage at their graduation and I won’t get to be there.

I won’t be the chauffeur for my sophomore friends or buy them caffeine from the vending machines.

I won’t get to hug my best friend or watch him graduate.

I have very mixed feelings about this next part of my life. It’s going to be hard, it’s going to be exhausting, and it’s going to be so fun. I’m going to learn so much. I’m going to meet new people and hopefully get fluent in an entire other language. It’s going to be amazing.

But I’m also going to miss so many things and so many people. I’m terrified but I’m so excited.

I know my friends won’t let me lose contact, and they’re already threatening to hide in my suitcases (and I keep reminding them they won’t make it past security, whether the bag is checked or not).

It’s going to be a lot, and it’s going to be hard. But its going to be worth it, and I have to remind myself that they’ll be okay, and so will I.

This is a song I’ve been listening to a lot recently, and, despite talking about a different part of life, it’s very relatable.

[somewherethesunrises]

Somewhat related

I signed up to take the AAPPL test a bit ago to get my seal of biliteracy before I graduate and uh- apparently it’s tomorrow!

I’ve heard absolutely nothing about it since they sent out the Google form asking which test you were going to take and I walked into my French class today to see:

AAPPL test tomorrow

7:40 am

And I was so concerned that I’d missed something or there was a different registration I was supposed to do

Nope

They just never said anything about it

Meanwhile they’ve been talking about the IB test like no other

Only a /little/ salty

So I have to do that tomorrow lol

I’ve made a panic French study doc so hopefully that will help

Wish me luck!
