New, New, New!
« on: March 19, 2010, 04:55:53 AM »
Hey guys. :) I love this site. I've been browsing since last night, and still feel like I have a lot to read!

I'm in college in the US, and graduating next year with the hopes of going to the UK for my fiance's grad school (husband by then!) I might continue, but I'm not sure as of yet. He's going for osteoarchaeology, though, so hopefully he'll get in somewhere and we'll be able to get visas!

Anddd. I'm 21 and in the anthropology/archaeology program at my university. I have an adorrraaable border collie named Alonzo (we call him Oz ;) ) that I love. I have a few friends in the UK thanks to another forum I frequent, so hopefully I won't be too alone over there.

Yeah. I'm not very good at this whole 'introduction' thing; I haven't done it in years! Thanks for making your way through this.

We met in high school, and have been together about 4 and a half years.

Anddd....we're not sure where we'll be moving yet. It depends on where he gets in. Right now, I think Bournesmouth looks good, but there are a lot of good schools in London with the program too. I should be finding out in about 10 months, depending on where he gets in and funding provided. :P

Hi!  I work in Bournemouth, it's a nice city and a lovely area. 
On s'envolera du même quai
Les yeux dans les mêmes reflets,
Pour cette vie et celle d'après
Tu seras mon unique projet.

Je t'aimais, je t'aime, et je t'aimerai.
