It has been busy times lately. Decisions being made, homework being done and traveling. I checked my own blog recently and realized that I posted on the 29th about upcoming decisions, and then did not actually post the decision! :O
On the 31st, I was offered a campus interview at a college I really like on the West Coast. But as he was offering me the interview, I felt like I should say "no" because I had already made up my mind.... so after thinking about it that afternoon in stats, I declined the campus interview and acknowledged to myself........
School starts September 22nd! I'm not sure when I'll be moving yet, because it depends on a lot of factors - like if I have some kind of job and what that job is. I'm applying for a few house director positions (sorority "house mom"-type jobs), and that would be the ideal scenario for me this year. I'm also looking for some "GSR" (graduate student researcher) positions which would help pay for my fees and provide me valuable research experience.
I am excited for this next step in my life - I'm not sure where this road is leading, but I know for sure that I am making a good decision. I am looking forward (so looking forward) to living on the west coast again - I have missed low humidity, seasons and "west coast thinking." I have especially missed being closer to my family.
Depending on what kind of job I get for the fall, and when it starts, I may or may not get a job over the summer. If I don't have a job, I'll be more able to travel. If I have to work, then y'all may just have to come visit me in sunny (hot... but dry heat!) phoenix.
Thanks for y'alls support and encouragement in this experience!
p.s. I'm going from Blue/Yellow at NAU to Green/Gold (technically) at Greenville to Green/Gold Bears at Baylor to Blue/Yellow Bears at UCLA - weird!
