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?
