no. 15

So today was a pretty eventful day. I talked with my mom about my plans for after my stay in Swiss-land is over. Meaning, I told her that I am going back to school for English education and French. She asked where, and I told her. Louisville. University of Louisville, to be exact. Aka every Wildcat's worst nightmare. I know I'm going to get a lot of shit for it, but I don't care. I will have fun giving other classmates shit. And it isn't like I'm too big on school spirit anyway. I love the city and I'd be close to my family. I definitely want to be close because my grandmother is getting older, and now she's getting knee surgery in a few months. Also, hearing what Russ had to say about the English and French departments really helped. I feel really confident with my decision. I feel like this is exactly what I should be doing. It's the same feeling I had when I woke up and said to myself, "I am going to be an aupair." It's true, that happened. I tend to talk to myself when I think of something that I find to be a good idea. Anyway, now that I've established that I'm going to be going to UofL, there is a little dilemma and it has something to do with money. Big surprise there, right? Getting on with the point - My parents and I are trying to figure out a way for me to gain residency in Kentucky so I could pay about $12,000 less a year to go to school. This is going to be really tricky but I have confidence that we can figure it out. I mean, 75% of my family lives there and my mother was born and raised there...
In other news, I have decided to cut about 3 inches off of my hair. I am going to be making an appointment sometime tomorrow afternoon. Pretty exciting.
I don't have anything else to say, actually. I just feel good and confident of my decisions. Maybe this is the beginning of the end of my indecisiveness... lord, I hope so.
