So I waited and waited and finally the day came... I was accepted!!!! Phew, I thought I was going to throw up! But no worries, I didn't! Now I'm accepted: Where the 'F' am I going to come up with $8,000?? Mom and dad are great! They have agreed to pay most of my way. I have applied for many scholarships including one at my home University, UNA. It is a Study Abroad scholarship that if won, they will supply my plane tickets! Plane tickets usually aren't that expensive... Unless you are traveling half way around the world then they'll cost you about $1,200.
I rarely check my mail on campus but was bored last Friday so I thought I'd be a good idea. Yes, I have 2 pieces of mail, but I cannot get my stupid mailbox open! Obviously I don't know how to work a combination! :/ So I convince myself it is all junk mail. The following Tuesday I get an email that my student loan has come in. So I walked back to my mailbox and it only took me 5 minutes and 15 trys, but I got in! Not only was there my loan check but also my letter stating that I had been granted the study abroad scholarship for the campus!!! YES!!! Today is my day!!! :) Of course I will have to give a presentation to the study body when I return, but it will be worth it!
i'm out =)
