Myka Bland
University of Worcester
England

Although I am not officially at the University of Worcester yet, I am currently in Paris for a layover and, to be honest, it's close enough to Worcester for me. The last couple of days have been a whrilwind of emotions for myself as well as my family. You know how you think that the people that's closest to you won't take it hard because you think they understand why you're doing this? Well, that's what I convinced myself to think these last couple of weeks. However, this experience means the world to me so I can't mess this up so I need to suck it up and continue to try and provide the best life for my family as well as myself.
