I haven't had the time or energy to update lately but I feel I should because I want to remember how this feels to be here at Linfield. I received an email on Monday that told me I was accepted into the Norway program. This means I will be gone from here for about 5 months. I was so happy and elated to hear I was accepted. I spent most of the

whoa hey!!!! congrats! when are you leaving????

i totally understand what you´re going through with the wanting to go/not wanting to go and all that... it´s fuckin hard no doubt about that. i´ve been thinking a lot about my self worth and who i am outside of my relationships and what i´m doing here, lately. no profound conclusions yet, but i think that my world is expanding.... and that´s really cool.

if you need to bounce ideas and worries and everything off me, write me an email.

i love you dear! good luck with skit!!

And Linfield means everything to me.

Let me add this to what Jess said, because she is undoubtedly the expert here.

Someday your time at Linfield will end, and if it is everything to you, that will crush you. That's what happened to me. You going to Norway will help you find those things about you and your life that you can take away from Linfield and hold onto when you are missing everything and everyone like crazy.

Congratulations, honey. :-) I know the idea will get less scary as time goes on.

I don't know if this will help, but can I tell you that I am soooooo jealous?? You will love it. What an awesome place to go. The people you will meet are going to be so awesome and nice. Linfield is an excellent place, yes, but I think it becomes more excellent once you spend some time away from it. I know I personally take it for granted being here ALL THE TIME. I know leaving people is hard, but all of the relationships that mean anything will change with you and be right here waiting for you to return. That's the awesome thing about good friendships.
