Thank you soo much and yes, I'll PM you once I begin the process  |
When you go back to school, then get in touch with the AWA. If you have any American friends, their moms might be able to help with that. You don't need recs anywhere near that soon, but it might take you awhile to make the connections you need to make. Besides, if you meet your friend's mom in September, you could actually know her well by spring when it's time to write that rec. And definitely start asking your teachers as soon as school kicks in. Again, they might be able to help, but everything takes longer when you're so far away. And word will get around, but not necessarily at lightning speed.
