I just commented on Thyrston's blog post, Aim for the Stars about choosing your major. I think this is very relavent and informative to every first-year student here.

I just commented on Bon Qui Qui's blog post, Life in the Fast Lane. It is a very informative post about speeding that I think everyone should read before driving home for Spring Break.

Summer Possibilities

The summer holds many possibilities when it comes to things to do. You can stay home and be bored out of your mind, or you could go on one or multiple vacations to anywhere you please. You could stay home and get a summer job to make some extra spending cash, or you could go to summer school to make some extra credit hours. Or you could combine a vacation and summer school in a study abroad program. With all these possibilities, it feels impossible to choose. It might seem strange that I’m talking about what to do over the summer when it’s only the end of February, but the deadline for study abroad applications is just around the corner. It’s difficult to confirm all your summer plans so early in the semester with so little time to think it all through.

My current conundrum is whether I work and do some summer school or study abroad in Moscow, Russia. Like most of you other college students, I am dirt poor and in desperate need of money, so a summer job, however un-enticing that may sound, seems like a very logical option to spend my summer. Of course, a job doesn’t have to be all day every day, so I could take a summer school course to get a little farther ahead in credits. It sounds like the perfect plan; only, there’s another plan on the table. As you probably know, some of our professors can be very convincing, and my Russian professor convinced me to look into Moscow over the summer to enhance my speaking abilities. It might be possible to work for the first half of the summer, and then jet off to the other side of the world to study Russian. It would be much more exciting than option number one, but it may not be equally rewarding. With option number one, I would be making money. With option number two, I’m just spending it. Which do you think is the better option? What are your summer options?
