I have a solution that will solve all of my problems regarding the schooling situation. I thought it over in the shower (where I do most of my thinking) and have decided that studying abroad is the best option. This way I can transfer without actually transferring. I can study in another country, another state, or another city. So if I want to experience Pitt, I can just spend a semester there. This way if I hate it or want to go back to IUP, I can without any hassle. I'll be able to get the experiences I want without the burdens and worries I listed before.
Good thinking, Caitlin. I feel good about this. It works.
I'm also working on applying for a summer program that takes place in England. I'll take a course on Shakespeare and then go to the Globe and see the plays we've read performed... perfect! I love Shakespeare! I love British people! I love historical places! I like summer! It all fits. Super duper! I'm excited.
Hooray for solutions!!
Also: the parents are coming to visit today!
I've missed my Scott and MaryLou.
huzzah.
yes! i'm so proud! showers are great places to think. unfortunately, i take very hot showers so if i decide to have a thinking session i always come out bright red. but yes to studying abroad! do you have any idea where you want to go? i think i might apply for a program in scotland for the summer (all creative writing!) and definitely for london in the fall. adventures everywhere! i can't wait to see where you go! i'm excited for you!
