I will be making new sites for each season for my life, unless I figure out how to put everything on one website. But that may be a while to come.
As of now, I will be posting on my new site! If you would like to immediately go to it, click here.

Indonesia!
I have been given the opportunity to travel to Indonesia for my senior year as an exchange student with the Rotary International Student Exchange program. I am 16 years old, just finished my junior year at Mishawaka High School, and am ready and willing to participate in such an endeavor.
Mishawaka High School has not had a student travel abroad as part of the Rotary Exchange Program for several years. I hope other students will be encouraged to do the same thing in years to come. To promote the Rotary Exchange, I plan to share my many experiences with local clubs, church youth groups, libraries, schools, and anyone who is interested in hearing my story. I also plan on keeping in touch with my sponsoring clubs through updates of my stay in Indonesia. This means video clips, e-mails, and facebook messages along with Skype communications.
In my high school, I have maintained a 4.0 GPA, I am a member of the National Honor Society, play French horn in the school band, and swim on the high school swim team. I am very active in my church, where I serve in a leadership position with the church youth group, and maintain a part-time job on the side. I feel that I am very flexible and can handle new situations.
My primary sponsor is South Bend Rotary Club, with co-sponsorship from Rotaract Club at Bethel College. I truly appreciate their willingness to guide and help me in this undertaking. I, along with mom and dad, now have the responsibility of raising $6,000 for this trip.
Thank you for reading this letter. Obviously, much support is needed. If you are interested in supporting me in any way, please respond by e-mail at amillionletters1@netscape.net . Beyond any financial support, I thank you for your support through well wishes and prayers.
With sincere thanks, Sinikka Roinila
