Okay, okay. I guess I'm finally going to talk about it but I'm not going to go into great detail right now. Sorry.
I'm moving to Vermont to go to SIT after all. After a lot of thought and hand-ringing this year, I've decided to get my MA in Sustainable Development at the same school I had deferred at a year ago. Ro's come to visit before I fly to Vermont Sept. 1st. We drove my stuff down last night from LA.
Here's a description of my program even though I'm sure you're perfectly clear on what Sustainable Development is-right? haha
SIT's Master of Arts in Sustainable Development prepares graduates for positions as consultants, project managers, and administrators in international and community based organizations whose efforts achieve a more equitable and sustainable use of the world's wealth and natural resources. The program provides a comprehensive education in issues of development, including competing theories and alternative approaches to practice, as it develops competencies in program planning, proposal writing, policy advocacy and training. Special attention is given to the role of nonprofits, nongovernmental organizations, and other civil society institutions as catalysts and providers of people-centered development programs and as actors influencing the formulation of public and corporate policies that affect the lives of their constituencies. As the graduate school of World Learning, a leading international development organization, SIT is uniquely qualified to prepare professionals with the capacity to help communities around the globe meet their needs and ensure their future.

Woah, this seems like a BIG change (or at least I had no idea about it until now, which doesn't mean much, obviously)! Wow! And I thought you were going to be in LA for a while. Guess not. Good luck with the move!
fighting!
good to see you and say bye to you... (and meeting your friends) but i'm still sad that you'll be so far away... (cheng)
ALL ADVERTISING COMMENTORS MUST DIE!!!
On a less violent note, congrats on stepping out in a new direction! To be honest, part of me was like, 'no, don't move so far away!' But then I remembered, I don't think I've ever actually seen you, especially since we've become blog buddies, so I guess there's no real loss there, for me anyway. As long as you keep on blogging...
have a great time in vermont! the program sounds interesting. come visit LA once in a while.
