I hope you all enjoy what you read hear, I really like writing. But truth be told, I am not writing this for you, I am writing this blog for me. To organize my thoughts and such. The deeper, more sensitive stuff I will keep for my paper-and-pen journal that resideson my bedside table.
The purpose of creating this blog is to narrate the journey I take planning my future. I know that probably sounds incredibly arrogant, self important and just plain boring. But the truth is I usually have so many thing whipping through my head that I usually forget things that I really shouldn't.
To give you a bit of an idea... I am a second year nursing student. That alone would be enough to screw over my brain - trust me. However, I am currently in the midst of planning a year abroad starting in May. And there is no going back now. I have already bought my ticket to London where I will be living with my auntand working next summer. From there, my plan is to travel to Wagga Wagga, NSW, Australia for a year abroad at Charles-Sturt University. For those of you unaware of where in the hell that is (like I was before hearing about the program, it is about half way between Sydney and Melbourne on the south-east 'corner' or the continent.
I am currently waiting for my British Passport to arrive (or rather to be approved) so that I don't have to apply for a vixa to work in London for the summer. I am looking into travelling to Paris for a weekend to meet up with a friend from high school, too.
On my way home from this trip, I am trying to plan stopover in California, New York and Maryland to check out gradschools. Right now I am looking at UCLA, UCSF, NYU, John's Hopkins and Columbia. I know it seems way too far in advance, but really, when I am heading home from Australia, it will only be a year away from going to one of them!
Then I have also volunteered to plan my cousin's baby shower at the end of January. Iam honoured to be the one to host it, I just need to create a planner and a bunch of lists so that I don't forget something.
Hence the blog.
I may also throw something in there about a movie or Meryl Streep or a poem or a story or feelings or rants or WHATEVER...
I hope you enjoy!
