"Is that all you blighters can do?" On iTunes: "Antichrist Superstar" - Marilyn Manson Today on the green there is a sort of pro-life rally thing going on. It's the Catholic Student Union, and I knew about it last night, as my lovely Catholic friend Candice told me about it. She also knows that I am pro-choice, and after she told me and I grinned, she said, "You should probably avoid the green." Come on, guys. I'm a good girl, I am! Anyway. I have exciting news! Newes! ...that doesn't make sense! I talked to Miss Kei earlier and I couldn't help but tell her because she's so darn persuasive (it took me all of what, three seconds? lol). But .... I'm working on applying to study abroad! I've been thinking about it all weekend and it's been making me so stupidly happy, heh. I went in today and got some information about the financial aspect of it (because we all know money is slightly important in such matters) and it looks as though my financial aid will pretty much cover most of the costs, since I'm both poor and smart. That, and they offer an ass-load of scholarships to apply for, so I think I'm pretty much set. I can't even begin to explain how excited I am about this. Even though I've not done the application and I haven't been excepted, the lady I talked to today said that with my grade point average, I'm a shoe-in. If all goes according to plan, than in a year I will be going to class in London. ^_^ Besides that, I changed my major this morning from history to English. I feel like I'm a little more 'where I need to be' now. My history classes, while interesting, just haven't been exactly what I wanted them to be, and I haven't gotten as into them as I thought I would. Literature, however, is a whole different ball game. I actually enjoy writing these papers, and I can't say the same for any of my other classes. I was kind of hesitant to change my major to English for some personal reasons that I won't go into, but I feel better now that I've thought it over and made the choice. I feel like a lot has changed recently, and I guess it kind of has. Registration for spring classes is coming up fast, which is bittersweet because while I'm definitely looking forward to next semester, I still have half of this semester to go, lol. I just want it to be over. I think that with a new major and London blooming on the horizon, however, I might be a little more motivated to get things done (and get a freaking job, for heaven's sake). Certainly, this would be the time to switch gears and get things going, since everything else seems to be falling into place. The coming weeks are going to be interesting, to say the least. ^_^; (I got a point at Shy's mO!! Whoo!!)
