congrats Robin. so that's why you haven't been around in such a long time?

More or less. Honestly, I probably could have found the time, just didn't find the courage to pop back in after so long, which only got longer. =(

By the way, congrats on your 3113rd post!

In the Delta of little ol' Arkansas.
Where the the cotton grows .
Two hundred pounds by hands a day.
Out in the sun his seven kids to play.
Great grand daddy Smithee picking away.
Where the cotton grows.

This is a dream come true, I have been waiting all my life for that!! Ah!!

Yes it is a programme with Oregon Universities. I have applied for Southern Oregon University, in a little city called Ashland. This is so strange to me that I am going to walk in the US streets!!! I think I might kneel down and kiss the ground.:D
Thanks for your congratulations!:)

I'm thinking Mechanical Engineering. My college has the best MechE program in the country, if I do say so my-biased-self.

By the way, congratulations, Sweets - there's an awful lot of BEAUTIFUL country up thereabouts.

Yes, my beloved, stick it to your wall, to the base of your computer monitor, to your fridge, your microwave... and remember this wouldn't be SO scary if you had not dreamt of it for so long and so ardently!
