It's been a long time since I've written anything on here. I don't even know if anyone reads this anymore. Aw well. This post can just be self indulgence then.
I only have 2 more weeks left of classes as an undergrad. I am so burnt out. I am ecstatic to be finished with university work--for now at least. I have so many things to do before I graduate. May 30th can't come soon enough.
But even when I graduate, I won't have a break. I was accepted into the Japan Exchange and Teaching Program. So I'll be in Japan for a year guys. I'm leaving on July 24th---which is soon. But seeing as how I know absolutely nothing about Japanese culture or language, I applied for an intensive Japanese course at Cornell. I got accepted into the summer program, so I'll be here for pretty much all of the summer. I graduate on the 30th and my program starts on the 2nd of June. I'll finish the program early on July 13th and then I'll go down to NYC on the 23rd for my pre-departure orentation and I'll be gone. I literally won't be able to spend anytime at home. My Japanese classes are from 8am to 4:30pm Monday through Friday. And on top of that, I will need to be studying for the GRE which I'll be taking on July 10th, if anyone cares. I was also accepted into the IRT program which helps me apply for grad school. But since I'll be abroad next year, they want me to get pretty much all of my graduate school applications done before I leave--and I have to apply to at least 8 grad schools. I was so looking forward to a break this summer after all of the crap that Cornell has put me through---it looks like I'm just going to stay in this abusive relationship for another month and a half.
Even though I'll be extremely busy and excessively stressed, one good thing about this summer is that Joe will be staying with me. It will be so nice to have some semblance of a normal relationship with him. It makes me sad to know that I'm away from him more than I am with him. It will be so wonderful to be able to see him every night over the summer. Even though this has probably one of the most stressful semesters that I have had, I have never been more happy and I blame him :). Enough of me fawning over him. I'm sure you've vomited already from this.
Dear friends, please don't forget me when I'm gone.
Love,
Mel
