Thanks everso to everyone who gave me advice on the study abroad thing! I am pretty sure that I have decided that I'm going for a year to... drum roll please.... Trinity College in Dublin!

I'm really excited guys. Also paralyzingly terrified because I have to find an apartment in Dublin and live on my own outside of a comfy dorm atmosphere and find/make my own food and generally be far FAR more independent than I ever have had to be in my whole life. Obviously that's fantastic and I'm going to learn so much and grow as a person, but still SCARY. *meep!*

Sas just pointed out an AWESOME THING - if I'm in the UK next year, I'll be able to go to WinconUK!!!!! *SQUEALS* How exciting is that?!? Steff and Neb and Sas and Bec and hopefully Rachel and all these crazy awesome people and EEEE! *dances around*

Oh fandom, you bring me joy :D

O flist! O magnificent, multi-national, diverse-perspectived flist!

I am trying to decide where I want to study abroad.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to do this program called TASSEP (Trans-Atlantic Science Student Exchange Program) because it costs SO MUCH LESS than normal Study Abroad programs, and it's exactly what I want in that you're just enrolled in a foreign school as a normal student.

So the choices are rather limited, both by schools that participate in this program and ones where they speak, y'know, English ;)

In a nutshell, it comes down to these three choices:

Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland
Lancaster University in Lancaster, England
University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland

Now, my lovely European friends (and anyone else that happens to know anything!), tell me what you know about these schools - reputations, strengths, anything about the cities they're in... anything that will help me to make a more informed decision. They all HAVE Biochemistry programs (that's my major) so that isn't really a concern, but if you know anything about how strong they are in the sciences that would help too!

Aaaaaand... go! :D
