California, I’m coming home!
Friends,
I’m writing this note in hopes that the next time you run into me you won’t look like you’ve just seen a ghost, and then look really confused. This is because I’ve decided to withdraw from my study abroad program in Australia and return to Davis for Spring Quarter. Its a bit of a complicated situation but the short story is that recently I’ve realized that I have no desire to be in school for another full year, that I want to graduate as soon as possible and begin to pursue some professional opportunities that have been knocking on my door lately. I almost cancelled the trip mid-summer for the same reason, but decided that I’d come here and give it a try. Well I’ve given it a try and despite the fact that Sydney is an awesome city and I found a place to live and got all that figured out, its not enough to distract me from the fact that I’m really ready to graduate, and the UC Education Abroad program does not offer anything shorter than a year program at the University here that has the design program I was interested in. So I’ll be returning to California and will hopefully finish school Spring quarter. I’ll be back in the Bay Area as of Feb 4th.
