Today is day three of College Bound's International Study Tour and this experience has already changed my world view. So much has happened thus far. Starting with Anne Frank's house in Amsterdam and seeing how life was for her. All she wanted to do was be a regular teenage girl- able to have fun, play and have little crushes on boys. I realize that many basic things I take for granted such as walking out of my door, being free to go and do whatever I choose. Anne's life was the same prior to the persecution of the Jews and her having to go into hiding. I can't imagine my life being altered in such a way; it was a very emotional experience.
