There is so much on my mind- and writing it out is sometimes the best way to process. So, feel free to skip this post if you want, it's mostly just jabber. But it you are interested in what it running through my head, continue on.
So we are coming towards the end of this semester, kind of but not really. It just seems to be flying by. I've gotten to do so much, see so much, and experience a whole new life, and I still have many more stops to make in the next few weeks. Here is my schedule for the next month or so. I am just finishing my first week of European Literature, and this class has been pretty fun. Our professor is great, he is from my school though I've never had him as a Prof before. We do a lot of creative writing, exploring to Old Town to be inspired, and lots of class discussion. I like it. We have one more week of this class, which will probably fly by. Then on November 7th, myself and two friends head out for a week long road trip through Europe. That only gives me a crap ton of anxiety, but it's okay, I'm trying not to worry too much. I'm a great driver, and I know how to drive manual, but driving through 7 different countries, all with difference road laws scares me a bit. Planning this trip is also getting a bit expensive, and I'm worried we will run out of money and be stuck somewhere is Belgium or Austria or something. So prayers for this trip would be much appreciated! Also we're going to be sleeping in the car most nights, so.... yeah, there's that! It's all part of the adventure, right? :) Well, after that we end up in Salzburg Austria where we begin our third and final academic tour through Austria and Italy. I'm stoked. Mainly because the money doesn't come out of my pocket- woo! We will be doing a European Art tour through the two countries for a week or so. When we get back from that, we only have one week left! That is when we will be finishing our German Class, and we have A LOT of work due that week, so wish me luck. Taking classes in Europe is harder than you'd think. There is so much you want to do everyday and it's easy to forget that you're actually here for school. So we often fall behind in classes because we would rather go explore a castle than write a paper- is that so wrong? ;) Don't get me wrong, I am still able to manage my time properly, it just gets tough. So that's that. What else is going through my mind? Well, I just skyped me advisor back at Corban, and we figured our what my schedule will look like next semester, and we found out that it will not be possible to graduate in May, but by December '15 I will be a college graduate. What!? That gives me a little bit of anxiety because it means I should start thinking about... I don't know... what to do with my life?? Ah... I have a few plans for after graduation, but I am keeping them on the down low for a while- until it is for sure. The day after I fly back into the states I have a dentists appointment... to get my wisdom teeth out. And then I have a doctors appointment to discuss possible shoulder surgery that month. So pretty much- I am not TOO excited to come back. Ah, what else... I miss my dog.... a lot :( She's probably forgotten me by now. It hurts my heart to think about. Okay... I think that is all for now. Any questions? Ask away. ALSO, feel free to send me a letter or a package. I will probably cry. my address is on the contact tab above. Much love
