haha actually this trip is covered by the cost of regular tuition, so it would cost me the exact same amount to study in london, venice, rome, and paris as it costs to study here at Loma. (as long as all my financial aid applies, which i just need to finish verifying, but it should have no hitch)

Not to mention they can be rather expensive, so you can start saving now. :P

yeah definitely. the art department has a euroterm the fall of my junior year (fall 2011) that I'm looking into, but ya def. needing to start planning now.

You should start looking into that now. The earlier you prepare for studying abroad the better.

haha nice. Ya my major is Art now. I had been double majoring, but it would have taken longer than four years to graduate, particularly if I go to Europe for a semester, which I would love to do.

Cool. I started off as an Creative writing major then switched schools and my major to fashion design. :P

Just reading for that course. But my "Creative Writing: Mixed Genre" course will be a lot of fun :3

I'm a writing minor (previously a writing major) so I get to take a lot of English courses :D

Yeah for quite a while I wasn't able to read much either, and what I did read was by authors who I had been reading their stuff for years.
But that course sounds like it'll be a lot of fun. We'll you just be studying sci fi novels by other authors or will you also be able to write some stories?

awesome :)

I signed up for a "Great Works of Literature: the Novel" course at my university next semester, and the prof emailed us all and was like "this is going to be a course about scifi novels" and I was like XD

I've been too busy this year to read a lot for pleasure, (and the novel I'm working on has sat on my shelf gathering dust) but hopefully this summer I'll have more time for both reading and writing. :D

I mostly read fantasy and some sci fi. I'm currently reading a couple of different series. One by Elizabeth Haydon. Another by Kristen Britain, and then J.C. & Barb Hendee. I use to read mystery stories but not anymore.
