So I've applied to study Art History abroad at Boğaziçi University over in Istanbul for the Spring Semester. :D:D:D
I've also applied for a couple of scholarships, including the Gilman - which is a pretty big one for study abroad, and they usually give you $5,000-8,000 if you win. So I'm really hopping that I can get that. I've got a few more scholarships I'll be applying for between now and the end of November.
...In addition to working 34ish hours a week and take 12 upper division, reading/writing heavy credits.
I'm gonna die.
And not have any time for anything ever and probably not get the grades I want. But I *can* and *will* do this, because If I get accepted and get enough scholarship money to go, I'm going to travel afterwards and visit my friends all over Europe (hence the still working now - gotta have travel money!), and go see a bunch of places I've been wanting to for a very long time.
I really, really, really want to this to work out.
I think this is the most I've ever wanted anything in my whole life.
Pretty sure I'm going to be a jumble of nerves/emotionally unstable until I hear back about my admittance and scholarship awards. Hopefully I'll hear back from Boğaziçi by the end of the month, but it won't be until late December/early January until I hear back about some of the scholarships. So I won't know for sure if I will be able to go or not until a month before I need to leave. >.<
