I finally received my passport complete with student visa in the mail today. This was good news since it was literally the last day the mail would have been delivered before my scheduled departure date. Present crisis averted. I also got my scholarship check from OU today. I'll deposit it at the ATM tomorrow after all my presents have been opened.
I spent last night at a house party with old friends from high school. Needless to say it was a fun time but it was also very depressing to see all the happy married couples and people getting engaged. I still find it strange to see people my age living in nice homes, working good jobs, and spending their life with someone. Hopefully after my studies in France are concluded I can find a great job and begin paying off loans and saving for a new car and a home.
Although I have enjoyed my time spent living around the country, working, and going back to school, I feel very unaccomplished in my life. I guess the realization that I am entering my late twenties (27) in a few weeks has got me thinking about wanting something more for myself and my life. I have a feeling that my second master's degree in Paris will be the most important step in beginning this process. It is definitely the time to focus on my goals and work as hard as possible in order to have options when I move back stateside.
