Should I Stay or Should I Go?

Just when I thought I had life all figured out, or at least the coming year...
The plan was to travel to the south of France and work on organic farms for the month of July. Then the first of August, I'd go to Greece with some friends and enjoy some beach time before heading back to Utah around the 18th. Next on the list was spending quality time with the family, along with getting enrolled at UVU so I could finish one last semester there before moving to St Louis. All the details were in the beginning stages but the outline had been made.
However, things were quickly put into question when my host family offered me to stay with them for another year. The question was, do I move back to the states and graciously accept the responsibilities of adulthood? Or, do I continue the dream of living in France for another year, work on my French and continue to eat delicious pastries? Decisions, decisions...
As you may have already guessed, I've accepted the latter. Thus, my stay in France will be extended. There's plenty of paperwork that is yet to be done, but if things go as planned (fingers crossed) I will be here until August of 2012!
