I was accepted to the college in Bath a few days ago. When I sent off my application I still had the inkling feeling that I might not be accepted which was a dumb thought, but I'm sure I am not the only person who has sent off their application with that inkling poking at their brain. My worries are gone now though I still have work to do. Housing survey, proof of insurance, and a some such information still needs to be sent off to the college. This is the easy stuff though, just fill in the blank, with no weight behind except the possibility of getting a bad roommate, but that is doubtful.

I'm still waiting on a response for my Gilman scholarship. Fingers crossed.

I did some travel research for class last week which I was grateful for.  I had  only focused on how I was going to make my way across the ocean and hadn't thought about how I would get to college once I was on English soil. When I hit things like this I wonder what things I am ignorant about that I don't know I am ignorant about. That is what my study abroad class is for, so hopefully I have learned everything that I need.

Also looking at train routes, stops, and line transfers was slightly overwhelming. I am so used to having one vehicle that I am in control of to get from point A to point B. Having to get off and on in different places and find where I need to go is going to be an interesting experience that I expect will have me at an above normal stress level, but  challenges build character.
