Well Hi...

Hi friends,

Most of you who I see still posting are old friends from way back in the Alt Reality days and I thought it's a good idea to give an update on how my life is considering I'd like to stay here awhile I honestly do not remember when I last was on ORGPlanet (I remember being here instead of AltReality so it must be somewhat recent?)

Well my life is crazy. I'm currently finishing my junior year of college, majoring in Political Science and triple minoring in Psychology, Criminal Justice, and GLBT Studies. Why? Oh because I want to go into Student Affairs and work in University Housing or Leadership Development at a university. I'm planning on getting my masters in Higher Ed. Administration after I graduate in two years (five years because I didn't switch majors until the beginning of this year). I've gotten really involved with my school as well. I was just elected Treasurer for Student Government Association, promoted to Senior Resident Assistant after being an RA for two years, and work for my campus' Pride Center.

I guess the most significant thing that's happened in my life is that I am currently studying abroad in Manchester, England. I've been fortunate enough to be able to travel the past four months throughout Europe (I'm currently on a small Spanish island in the Mediterranean called Ibiza) and see the world like I've always wanted. I move back to Massachusetts in thirteen days. Then two weeks after that, I move to Maryland for the summer, working at Frostburg State University as an intern in their camps and conferences program.

I hope everyone here is doing well. I'm excited to catch up with ya'll (:

welcome back, not sure if we ever talked previously, but always happy to see people return!

HI BEN!!!! IM so totally jealous of you because you are in Ibiza! That's like, OMG. Have you been to any of the clubs there? I hear the nightlife there is THE BOMB!!! I would LOVE to travel to Ibiza someday. Not only is the nightlife amazing but it's just so totally beautiful there. awwww, Im so happy for you. Sound's like you have been super busy too. Welcome back to OP. We are glad to have another here to post along with us.

I haven't been to any night clubs because it's still off season, unfortunately. It makes sense seeing it was only twenty pounds round trip from Manchester, so I'm not complaining. But I have been able to take in so much of the beauty of the island. The beaches are to die for and everyone here is so kind!

Soak up every minute of it.

OMG, I remember you!!! Hi Ben!!! It's so nice to see people coming back here!!

Wow, you are amazing with all the majors/minors you have taken on.. sounds like a lot of hard work. You should def be proud!! It was hard enough for me just to major in biology lol. And studying abroad? Wow.. that's pretty damn cool! I'm jealous lol!!

Do you still watch Survivor?

Hi Niki! It is definitely a lot of work with school and my involvement but I like to stay busy rather than have much free time. Especially after this semester being in the UK, I am ready to be busy 24/7.

I stopped watching Survivor at Gabon and got back into it with HvV. I am about six weeks behind on One World because I just got back from over a month straight of traveling so I will be doing catch up over the next week or so.

Well it def. sounds like fun and like you will be a busy bee!

Enjoy Survivor... there's some interesting stuff that goes down this season..
