So...for the last couple of months I've been working on an application for an exchange program to Russia. It was ridiculously involved...2 essays (1 in Russian), doctor's examination, reference letters, phone interview, etc., etc. Well, today I had the phone interview and about an hour later I was informed that I was accepted into the program! (we weren't supposed to find that out until the 15th of June, but apparently my interview went well).

So yeah, next winter I'll be living in St. Petersburg for 4 months, taking Russian language courses and hopefully doing a little travelling!

I can't wait to do some photography when I get over there too!
