gerardway420: geocities: bethlehems: Sometimes I get study abroad emails and no matter how morally opposed to the concept of study abroad I am I’m like, “I want to do that!”  But then I remember that I’m graduating next winter and I get double-time stoked that I’m missing out on studying abroad to graduate a semester early. Little things, guys.  Little things. Girl, studying abroad is kind of just like fucking around in another country for 4 months for around the same price you would pay to be living in College Park, Maryland (depending on the program, of course). As much as I don’t want to be that girl, I would say that going to Denmark was one of the best things I could have possibly done with my Fall semester. Gotta leave the bubble at some point. I’d much rather spend next Spring abroad instead of scrambling to get a job, because I can do that for the rest of my fucking life. Can’t always take four months off (off? well, this also depends on how rigorous your program is, but the academics at study abroad tend to be less busywork-intensive and much more experience-based) to live in a different country. What is your moral opposition to that? I don’t know how you can be “morally” opposed to a program that allows you to explore a different culture for a reasonable price. It doesn’t make any sense. I’m sorry but as cliche as this sounds, “YOU ARE ONLY YOUNG ONCE.” When the fuck else will you ever have an opportunity like this? But hey what do I know right? It’s not like every single person I have ever talked to about study abroad has been like it’s so amazing, life changing, and great. etc. Sorry girl but if all you want to do in life is graduate early, get a job in dc, and settle for pictures of radiators on the internet for enjoyment, I feel really bad for you. All I know is that Barcelona fucking rules and since I’ve been gone I’ve missed… hmm… a debilitating snow storm and riots about something I could not care less about. Perhaps I will throw it out there that I am morally opposed to Route 1. And growing up. And, kinda, tumblr/leading an internet life, though I do love stalking you babez. Love, Lindsay.
