First of all, I've gotta say I'm psyched about this idea. You Bontrager cousins are some of my favorite people ever and I'm excited that we get to start keeping in touch better. Hooray for cousins!
And now, about me:
For 8ish more weeks I'm going to UCCS. Then I'm graduating with a degree in Spanish. I'm pretty psyched about being finished, but also a little terrified about having to be a grown-up and get a real job and all. But for now the plan is to try and get a job teaching high school Spanish. I didn't go for my teaching license, though, so I'll have to see if a charter school or private school will take a chance on me. If not, I might just move to Mexico and teach English there.
For now, though, I'm working at the Language Technology Center at school. It sounds a lot more important than it really is, because although I'm being paid lots of money to basically be a Spanish tutor, I mostly sit at my gigantic desk pretending to do homework, but really just wasting all my time online. Occasionally, though, I actually get to help people with their Spanish or lead a Spanish conversation table that we do each week. And I actually like it a lot. It's nice to have a job that relates to my major.
I think that's about all. School and work don't leave me much time for a life, so those are all the juicy details for now.
Hearts!

When's your graduation date? Maybe we could make a trip up there. I'd love to see you, harlot. Miss you.
My graduation is May 23. It would be great to see you and meet Abby!
Congrats on being almost done!! And it's totally normal to be scared of having to grow up. I still am sometimes!! Ah, those wondrous college days of working at jobs like you describe. Treasure it while it's still there!
