The Vangclear Files: Today's my day!

Have you ever had one of hose days where everything goes your way? Well that was my today! It was the dead line for my study abroad application. I walked into the advisors office and she was like okay what do you have for me. Because up until then I had only submitted the first part of my application and had my teachers write recommendations for me. So I take out my folder and stat putting everything in the right order and she’s asking me questions you like if I have this or that filled out right. And I’m like of course. Then she starts asking me about if I sent in stuff for my AIFS which is the company I’m going with and I explained how I had everything but my transcript. And she said she could fax over the one that she had of mine and I told her it was okay cause I sent un unofficial transcript and let my advisor there know and she was totally impressed. I was happy that I had done everything right! Then she asked for my GPA and I was like 3.5 and she was taken aback and she said good job to me…. I guess my GPA is a big deal. I know I can do better… but a lot of people I know on campus don’t have anything near mine… but alas I’m one of those nerds that LOVES school.

That was another thing. She wanted to know how many credits I was taking and I said 15. She’s like we recommend you take 12 but 15 is okay. I just don’t want to hear that you have to study the whole time. I assured her that I was one of those kids that loves school and studying and my 4 classes won’t be a big deal. Which of course I’m totally excited about! I mean come on four months in Europe!!! Whoot!! I’m starting to make lists of what I want to do and where I want to go! I’m beyond excited!!! I’m be leaving in three months and 2 days!!! I seriously can’t wait!!

Okay and here are some totally awesome pictures of the University of Limerick where I’ll be going!!
