I was starting to think they forgot about me...

I spoke too soon, I finally got emails from Lee, and since the last time I've talked to him (FEB), I've had thoughts of not going, I graduated college in May and I got my statement about what I owe in student loans, I was set, 'Im not going'. The Money, the MONEY. So much money, I cant afford it, but im young, that's what people are telling me. So maybe I should go, I have to respond to him, he is telling me about some companies (not specific ones though) About what they want of me, one has to do with documentaries, I LOVE docs, but what if it's unpaid that would SUCK! but it would be awesome experience.

But I think paid should be my top priority, should I still go in sept? That was the date they gave me, what if I gotta change it.

IDK what to do you guys, i want to go, but literally the only reason keeping me in the state is the money, not the traveling, not the flying, not being alone, it's just the money.

I want to travel, I want to explore, I want to not worry about money,

ugh American money problems...

Question for bunacers?

Im coming from America to London for a couple months for Intern in London  Ive "found" a company that would give me an internship, do I HAVE to go through Bunac to get a Visa? or can I get it myself to save some dough?

I kind of want to save some money by sharing a room

I mean, it's affordable where I can have my own room in a shared apartment, but whatevs I dont want to just be sitting in my room for 8 weeks, and only come out when I want to eat and go to work!

Also I wonder if after my internship is over, can I change my visa to visitor and then stay like another week or so, I kind of want to be there for my birthday and new years! but thats an extra month, which is $500 a week! whoa, no thanks dude!

But the guy said I can live there for 2 months, find my own place to stay and continue to intern for another couple of months no problem! I want to do that, but I also need to find a place to stay!

*sad face* Please UK let me stay?!?!?

Typo. The American dollar sucks, compared TO the British pound.

Why does the pound have to be worth so much more than American dollars?!

Huff huff,

Thanking the American education system for allowing me to get grants and loans where if I dont spend it all they give me the rest.

Still have to pay them back, but Ill get on that 6 months after I graduate... meh.

I have 14 days to turn in my deposit

788 USD

My credit card was stolen last tuesday and its been over a week since they said I would have it. You never know how much you need or use your Debit/Credit card until someone steals it.

It's only been about 4 days since I got my acceptance email, but before I get to spend all my money, I would just really like to put in my deposit. 

Oh and buy concert tickets! thats all I want! Ugh.

More on my internship

I dont know why I was even saying that I wasnt going to get into the program.

I was pretty sure that I was, so today while I was drooling over one of my lab partners, I got a phone call that I was in the program! aw yeah, but I didnt really jump for joy because now here comes the hard part and the waiting part. I wish sept was soon.

Now I just have to wait for the conformation email that I can give them my money. Then they will look for the internship, then I have to talk to the internship, and then I have to get the visa, and the plane ticket, and all the stuff.

Whoa! Let me just get the internship first, but I won't lie im excited and nervous.

Holy hell

That was fun and awk at the same time!

He was the cutest thing Ive ever seen, but he's all the way in Chile! rude. My initial internship was fun and only 20 mins! He laughed alot and told me I had a great personality.

Holy expensive, but whatev's im young! Maybe he'll come out and be my friend while Im in London!

Get ready United Kingdom, another American is coming your way!
