Unofficial Acceptance

This is my first post on this soon to be heavily used blog!  I would first like to inform everyone, who may not already know, that I have been unofficially accepted to study at the Goethe Universität in Frankfurt, Germany!  I receive my official letter of acceptance sometime in July, but I have received notification that I will be attending this university for the following academic year 2013-2014!  I also have received information from the DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst/German Academic Exchange Service) that I have received their prestigious Undergraduate Scholarship stipend. This stipend was one, for which I applied in January 2013 and had been developing and correcting since early October 2012!  I have my German professor to thank for all of the help I received!

Having received information about both of these wonderful events within three days of one another, I felt a huge weight lifted from my shoulders, for I hate waiting for huge news like this!  Since the waiting game is over, I only have a few more things I need to complete before it's time to travel abroad!

Please keep up with this blog, for I will be doing the same, because it will be easier to update this blog from time to time than to consistently contact all of my friends and family, who will be missing me, daily/weekly/et cetera.
