Muahahaha!! I am BITCHIN'!!
And of course, McGill has accepted my exchange to.... University of Swineburne... in MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA.
So basically, next year will consist of
Fall '09 in BARBADOS.
Winter '10 in AUSTRALIA. (if all goes well and U of Swineburne accepts my application and I keep my GPA above 3.0...easy peasy.)
Bye bye winter blues. :)
And of course, bye bye savings!! :P
And, this is my tumbleblog. Way cool. Mixed media, quick and dirty stream of consciousness type of blogging. Very post modernist. Love the concept. Have bought in. :)
