*big crocodile tears* OMG you guys, you are so awesome!! Thank you!!!!

OMG thank you!!! You are too sweet!!!

I don't even. What? How? I got it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS CAN'T BE REAL!! I'M DREAMING!!!!

No, I didn't, but if you look at the spreadsheet, you will see that some years, ETAs were notified as much as month after the Full Grants. That has been a couple of years ago, but it's not outside the realm of possibility. Last year it was two weeks after Full Grants, so now I'm not going to expect it before then.

It might still be another month before German ETA's are emailed. Rah, rah!

I'm so sorry to hear that!! Hang in there

It's still possible, but unlikely. People have received emails as late as 6 pm est.

or next week. Or never. or tomorrow. Or never, probably.

OMG! Those are my moves!!!

Probably. Or, it's just the most excruciating thing I can think of at the moment.

I'm pretty sure this is one of the most excruciating things I have experienced thus far.

It's awesome.. but if you suck, like I do, it can get a little frustrating having to start over. I'm trying to take a hiatus from video games right now anyway, so that's ok

Hahaha. Awww, nice zombie! Good zombie! I wish I would have more zombie dreams! The last one was really cool, but I barely remember anything about it other than not being able to stab through the skulls.. I've started playing this Ipad game called Dead Trigger (it's in the Android store as well, and it's free) and I have Zombie U(Wii U game), so maybe if I start playing them more frequently, I will have cooler zombie dreams. Zombie U is an amazing game (although it always makes me think it's Zombie University instead of just using the WiiU title) and is really intense. I can't play it at night, before I go to bed, because it gets me so anxious!! It's not one of those "run and gun" type games, that I usually don't play. Every time you die, you have to start over as a new survivor (you don't restart the entire game, just whatever mission you were on). The visuals and sounds are amazing!! With your character, you will be creeping around doors, because you never know when a zombie will be hiding behind the door and come after you. There will be motionless corpses laying around, too , that suddenly come to life as you walk by them! The most freaked out I have gotten from that darn game was when the scene takes you into a poorly lit meat cooler, and then a few rats scuttle out of the corner. I jumped about a FOOT! Damn rats.. I haven't watched the finale yet either! I was on my way home from my grandparents last night and didn't get to catch it. I'm watching it tonight, though!!! It's such an awesome show

I actually avoid most horror movies. I don't really mind gore so much, more psychological thriller type movies. It's not the nightmares that bother me, it's the falling asleep part!! I lay awake listening to every little sound in the house!!

Baahahahha. hilarious! Unrelated but, whatever. I had a zombie dream over the weekend, that somehow wasn't scary. In my dream, I was trying to kill all the zombies that were after me, but I could never find a decent weapon. I didn't have a gun, and all the knives I kept finding were like.. steak knives, or prison shank quality. At first my strategy was to stab them in the brain, but it was too difficult to stab through the skull with a steak knife. Ok.. I was going to continue but then I realized that this is probably getting a little too graphic, and not everyone watches the Walking Dead and has been exposed to this kind of stuff. Eh. Anyway, cheers!

Or maybe in another week and a half. or more. or never.

I think it's possible to have the best of both worlds, really! A lot of German towns are so quaint, that it feels like being in a small town, anyway! I spent a semester in Bayern, in a town an hour from Munich. I recently looked up the population and was surprised to find out it's higher than the city I live in now! It sure didn't feel like it! It was small enough to not feel overwhelming, but still big enough to have lots to do; art museums, theatre, symphony, bars, clubs, you name it. I loved that city!! And it was just a short bahn ride to Munich, so I went shopping and checked out Oktoberfest (Overrated, but worth seeing). I think even if you are in a big city, it will still be quite easy to get around by foot, which is one of my favorite things about Germany! I would recommend getting a bike, really, it's the best way to see the town(and a great way to stay in shape!)! Sometimes riding by bike is actually faster than driving. I remember going out for dinner with my host family one night. Host dad, host siblings, and I went by car, but host mom rode her bike from work. When we got home, my host mom was pulling up to the house at the same time we were! Going by bike is where it's at!! .. I had a lot of really lovely bike rides along the Donau. I would LOVE to do it again!!

1. Niedersachsen 2. Nordrhein-Westfalen 3.Bayern But I actually WANT to be put in Bayern. I put the other two first because I've already spent some time in Bayern, and really, I SHOULD branch out!! I can't help but want to go back though!!

Haha, glad I could brighten your day!!

Girl at the end of the second gif, in purple, is all "I WHIP MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH , I WHIP MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH!!"

I wish I were the Oprah of Fulbrights. Because then YOU would get a Fulbright, and YOU would get a FULBRIGHT, and EVERYBODY GETS A FULBRIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And ya'll would be all..
