Guys....
I hate to do this, specially over livejournal... but... I've had to make a decision that I think all of you should know about. Specially since it involves all of In-house. I know I talked about leaving Beloit last Spring, and now I am. My freshman year was very emotionally hard on me, mostly because of the inability to leave Beloit, or have a family life with my mom. I know I know a lot of you think that my mom is a bitch, but I still love her. This is decision wasn't influnced by her, even though it was influnced by the want of a relationship with her. However, it was not solely based on my emotional standing, but also my academy wants and needs.
This isn't going to be a walk in the park... nor do I expect all of you to understand why I'm leaving, but I'm taking a huge chance and trying to establish residency in California. Since the transfer rate for out of state students at any University of California with a strong Astronomy and Astrophysics progarm is around 1.4%, I've decieded that the best way to get in is to become a California resident, go to a community college to gain the rest of my 60 credits, and sign a TAG (Transfer Acceptance Agreement) which will garanity my accepts into UCSD my Junior year.
I know that most of you probably think that's a weird idea, but... I really love it here. I love the people, I love the academic life, I love the weather, I love the lifestyle. And from the moment I stepped foot in California I felt as though my life was about to change. It has, I have. And that's hard to accept, but I need to do this.
I'm sorry guys. I love you all, and I'll be by to pick up all my stuff sometime in September. I hope to see you all. Best wishes for the fall, I'll miss you.
If you have any question as them... Love you
