Tell them you'll pay 'em in Taco's...they love that.

(I'm kidding, but it you didn't get the reference you need to watch Drop Dead Gorgeous.)

Moving on. I couldn't wait to talk about it cause it's always on my mind...

I got accepted to a field school in Mexico this summer. I'm so pumped because it offers direct experience with the things I would like to do later in life, and looks great on a grad-school application. It costs a lot, but its worth it for all you get out of the program. There are three courses: Language and Culture, Mayan Civilization, and Ethnography Writing.

The only problem is that the University of Guelph may not recognize these three credits as acceptable towards my degree. I find out on Monday for sure, but I'm getting really frustrated lately because I just want to know. My friends that are also going mentioned that the office had said that we aren't down there long enough (3 weeks). So we'll see. If it doesn't work out then I'll go to Great Britain as originally planned and hang out with Action. Both would be sweet sweetnesses. But the first option would get me out of university a lot faster.

So if you want to post a comment and let me know what you think, that'd be cool. Otherwise prayers are always appreciated!

PS Fieldtrips to see the Mayan Ruins / Palenque on weekends. Google it.
