Remember the big project I’ve been waiting to hear back on? Well, that “project” was actually an application for a scholarship to help cover the expenses of studying abroad in China during my junior year. And today… I found out that I got it.

I can’t even begin to describe how ecstatic and relieved I am right now. Life doesn’t get much better than this.

I think that will be the main regret I have over college (once I get over all the other chaos anyway) is that I never went abroad. Congratulations, Manda! I know it’s a great feeling. It’s like winning the lottery. Waiting for mine to come in with my thesis grade, and with job apps eventually!
