Can't wait to see what's next.

Update

















I will be studying abroad in the fall of 2010..so not too long now. I was going to go in the spring of 2010, but my visa for Hungary would not have been processed in time and I had yet to receive an official letter of acceptance from the school that I was attending, but I did receive an unofficial one. Unfortunately, an unofficial letter will not work when applying for my visa. I'm having a wonderful time here in good 'ol GA, so I can't really say that I'm sad that I'm still here. I get to hang out with my best friend, go downtown, and have table talk with my advisor and some psychology professors...I don't mind postponing my trip.

I am still at GCSU. I am a senior and I will be graduating in December of 2010, an entire semester early. Thank goodness. I am having such a hard time focusing and applying myself this year. In the past I have always had such drive and motivation to do well, but I just can't seem to capture that elusive ability to focus this year.

Instead of beginning the Peace Corps right after I graduate, I have decided to apply for graduate school. After graduate school I will go into the Peace Corps. It's still a dream of mine to help others through the Peace Corps. At this point, I am just rearranging my dreams, not giving up on any.

Still tutoring at Oak Hill Middle School. This is my third year, and wow... Some weeks I get cussed out daily, other days I get overwhelmed with the amount of hugs I get. I never know what to expect. I feel like some students love me and some students love to hate me. I have to keep reminding myself that I am 21 and they are 14 and they are going through puberty.

Family is doing well, and that's what's most important.
I am doing well, too. I do need to focus on my personal health a bit more, however.
