Yes, some of these are AWEFULLY ambitious, but they should be.
I'm trying to think of some smaller things that would be easier to do in the next couple of year, but my mind works in grand ways.
Hello Blog! Long time no see. Life has been insane since I wrote last.
One major thing that's changed is that I am no longer moving to Vancouver, but instead I will be studying in Germany in January!!

I am so very very excited, and I thought I would revive this blog to record my adventures there. I have just been accepted by the school, and soon I will have to pick my housing and my courses.

My to do list for Germany:
1. Buy plane tickets
2. Pick out courses, and apply for transfer credit
3. Get copies of application stuff to the abroad office
4. Get a Visa
5. Get Housing in Germany
6. Get READY TO GO!!
