Bleh, I never know how to feel when going through an emotional roller coaster. It's like... I'm being tugged back and forth between logic and pure happiness. The simple truth that makes me want to smile like a baby with a toy, and then the ugly reality that makes me want to scream and through a tantrum- like said baby when the toy is taken away. I feel like my entire future depends on the choices I make in the next year and half (or so) and I don't know what my decisions are going to be.
Stupid decisions u.u
So, lets take a vote here! :D Help decide my future FOR ME!!! WOOOOO!
A) UdG- Skip four years of premed, practically free, close to home (I can't decide if this is a pro or a con)
B) Dalhousie (Halifax)- Great medical faculty, I'd be with Chris, beautiful town... something new.
C) Harvard- Mom would be happy.
Okay, that just gave me an idea. I'm gonna make a Pro-Con list right here, right now. Even though Chris wants to play Starcraft.

*Throw a tantrum.
I'm liking Halifax after reading your pro-con list. You're bilingual, and you can take placement tests to prove your proficiency in a second language. You shouldn't have any trouble with international advantages in terms of getting a job abroad. Remember that a degree from Canada means a whole lot in other countries as opposed to a degree in Mexico internationally.
You can handle this, Lil. Just hold it together.
I know we were talking about this just a few hours go, but really, Halifax is a pretty nice place, no matter how you look at it. At the very least, a single year there might make a path clearer for you.
