I glanced at the countdown counter on this blog, and I realized that it's past the 75-day mark and I'm getting more and more excited! (And nervous, but I'll deal with that later, haha.)
I finally got my visa set and I'm due to pick it up in 10 days or so! And this upcoming week, I am on a mission to get all the signatures from academic advising, housing, the registrar, financial aid and study abroad office to sign off on the status form which is basically for "i'm leaving next semester for study abroad but don't forget about me because i'm coming back". I'll be done with that by Wednesday.
Then that's it. All the paperwork will be done. All the work I've done for the past 5 months - done.
And then my school has a mandatory study abroad meeting at the end of November/beginning of December for all those who are study abroad.
