lathrielI
Had
The
Worst
Dream
Ever.
I dreampt that I was not accepted at UB. There was a prolonged moment of terror and embarassment, and severe depression. Then I woke up and remembered I was transfering, so it's nigh impossible to be rejected.
Whoo.
I was scared. Can you imagine being rejected by UB? oy. Sure, it's the "Gem of the SUNY Schools" but it is still really easy to be accepted.
I then proceeded to fall back asleep and dream about mummified football players from the 1950s that were still somehow alive and could be un-mummified if i turned some hook thinggy in the ceiling.
Meh. Dreams.
*gulp* I can still feel the fear clutching my diapragm.
So, you are as obsessed with traveling as me, and plan to spend 5 months hiking the entire Appalachian Trail (over 2000 miles from georgia to maine!) as soon as you graduate college. This costs money. You have to save $3000 between now and then in order to do it, which shouldn't be a problem because you are assistant manager at a good job making alright money. Hiking this trail is non-negotiable; you ARE going to do it, not matter if it doesn't make sense why to other people.
BUT
You would like to travel as much as you can before that, too. One great opportunity would be to study abroad, especially because you will be majoring in anthropology with a concentration in foreign language. But in order to do this you would have to quit your job.
Yeah, you can always get another one when you come back. But will it be as awesome as the one you have now? As flexible? Pay as much? Have people as cool?
So. What would YOU do?
