Got a letter from Tammy today. I put the card up so the super hilighter bright sun she drew for me is on my collage board. it makes me smile. THANK YOU!
One of my friends from home asked how the trip was, said shed hate to have to study and would only want to travel. I mentioned how Katie in Rome only has 2 days of classes and is traveling EVERYWHERE (honestly, WHO GOES TO SWEDEN IN MARCH? silly girl) and i would have really liked that.
BUT... I also then explained that I am a European History major. With a Spanish minor. And how I am probably the one person who gets up every morning and cannot WAIT to get to class. Granted, my first one is grammar which I am not really a fan of, BUT then I get to do literature and history. Yes, it helps that my history professor is a totally gorgeous man. But in all honesty, the time frame right around the 16th century is absolutely amazing. Favorite thing EVER.
So thank you. Thank you for sending me here. Thank you for helping me hone in on what I actually really like. I know I can't do theater. And I despised the math requisites for Biology. I like Euro History... but I LOVE Spanish history. This experience is perfect. Not only am I living in an amazing place having the time of my life, but I am LEARNING exactly what I want. For the first time in a long time I am HAPPY to get up and go to school and learn something.
Por ejemplo, yesterday the teacher said he was letting us out a bit early because he didn't want us to get ahead of the other class. I was BUMMED and was like NO ITS OKAY JUST KEEP GOING and he looked at me like I was crazy. But I wanted to know more. I am so happy here.
Thank you!
