Dear Readers,
          Long time, no post! Sorry about that- University, job, and life in general have been keeping me super busy. However, I got the most awesome news today: I've been accepted! Everything is all sorts of official now! Yay! Here's the email:

How exciting is that?! Now I've just got to wait for the letter and finally buy my plane ticket. Can you believe that there are only 47 days left until I leave? It doesn't seem real.

Much love,

Nicola
