#I was struggling for a while on how I wanted to design empanada but this makes it easier because I liked the twin concept

[mangofanarts]

Originally, I was going to make Empanada more older then Sunny but then I thought about them being twins and I liked that idea better, Empanada is still the older one even if it's by a second I like them having a couple of differences between each other though

[cider-est]

The full lineup is almost done!! (just needs some touch ups and a Chunsik design👍) FEEDBACK IS GREATLY APRECIATED!!

Design process under here (whole lot of yapping)

General thoughts: Ive given them in my previous design sheet (you can find it in my blog)(tldr: designs match characters but still childish, 8-12 years old). Only thing different here, is that these eggs were eggs who I had less of a clear idea of what I wanted to do with them (though I still really liked where I ended up!!)

Empanada: Didnt want to go for the full sweet lolita route, mostly because I thought it'd take away the "little kidness" of it all, but something that still resembles the aesthetic. She's wearing "carneirinhos" (idk the name in english) which is very cute little girl to me, and shes also a demon! Her tail resembles a frying pan!! Though I might change her fringe (it was supposed to be baby hairs but now that I think about it, her type of hair probably wouldnt have them) and put some argyle pattern in her sweater vest. I just forgor💀 to do that...I also wish I had made her shorter, but unfortunetely I drew this before the eggs did the height check (YES ITS BEEN THAT LONG).

Sunny: My beautiful baby girl. She means the world to me. I love this minecraft egg with all my heart. Shes wearing Light up sketchers and some fairy wings like Pomme, and shes actually wearing a swimsuit, she just put a tutu over it. The diamonds they're always holding are rings, they have a "terere" in their hair (idk name in english😭😭) and the beads were inspired by an artist on twt (@\BLUETOMATOSODA). Also if you are wondering why her hair looks like tentacles, its because I had originally made it puffy, but changed my mind after doing the lineart, so i had to get creative with me covering it up. Just pretend she has a fan, shes a star after all!

Pepito: Basically, he is very smoll. Chiquito even. He has strawberry hair and MASSIVE glasses that take up his entire face. Hes wearing a swimsuit aswell (dont ask how it works idk either), and has floaties since he cant swim. Hes got crocs, since flip flops hurt his toes, with a spider man charm on them! Also hes got a sunhat, mostly cause I wanted some other accessorie but didnt want to go with gas mask since it'd kinda kill the whole swimming vibe (since his model is wearing a swimsuit). sorry if its not too accurate to his character. Side note: Him, Em and Sunny all have freckles! Him and Sunny all over their bodies while Em just has on her cheeks.

Leo: Cute sporty vibe, love her shorty spiky hair. Wanted to try to make her face spiky aswell, for the whole shark dad thing. Shes got a necklace with a shark tooth (I guess she got it from Foolish??). He changes tshirts randomly, and opens and closes his attack on titan hoodie depending on the tshirt's expression (basically my version of Leo changing her player heads constantly). His trainers have dragon wings and also: whealies!!

Dapper: Im gonna be honest: did not expect to like his design THIS much. The colouring really elevated, with the long blue hair (the same colour as the ghosties!). Wanted to make them, y'know, dapper, so I had to sacrifice some of the "little kid vibes" unfortunetely, but I think it fits her still. The hat has part of the helmet that they used to wear a lot, demon horn to match Pomme, and a suit that is VERY inspired by Death the Kid from Soul Eater (very fitting for a reaper in training imo). Might be my favourite design!

Ramon: Jesus fuck you'd think designing your fav egg would be easy BUT NO. I struggled long and hard. Again, he doesnt have that much "little kid" vibe whatever man😭😭 Im just happy that I even managed to make SOMETHING. Hes got Create googles, his meathead is a massive hat that completely hides his hair. Very simple, very Ramon, though I will probably end up making a version with an ugly sweater just like he likes instead😔. I still like it but. man...

ANYWAYS IF YOU READ ALL THAT MWAH, YOURE A REAL ONE, THANKS FOR ENTERTAINING MY THOUGHTS🫶🫶🫶

[gracefireheart]

Been brainstorming a bit more about what animals to base all the different Eggs' dragon designs after, 'cause I really like how Tallulah and Chayanne's looked in my previous drawing :]

Overall they will all mostly look like dragons, but small things like face structure, body structure, tail, pattern, if they have fur or scales or something else, and/or if they have horns, ears and things like that will be determined by the animals that's gonna be mixed into their design.

For example: Tallulah's got a mix of farm animals (mostly cows tho') into her overall design, and has the pattern (and maybe the back fin and/or tail, idk yet) of an orca, which will hopefully be more noticeable if I do a full body drawing of her lol. Meanwhile, Chayanne's a mix of a goat (the horns + I'm thinking of giving him the tail of a goat qvq it's very cute), and will also be either a mix of both a duck and a crow, or just crow. Unsure yet if I want the duck floatie to be just an accessory, or if I should maybe make his hind legs have webbed feet like a duck while his front legs have crow feet.

For the other Eggs, I still don't have everyone set in stone. Like:

For Dapper, I only got black cat on the list, but I miiight add bat too. Idk yet.

With Ramon, I do want him to have some alligator features, but idk what else. A small part of me wants to add catfish just 'cause it would be funny lol. Or I could go with something "octopus-esque" 'cause of the meature (I know the mob doesn't have egg legs, but it still reminds me of an octopus ajkshfaksh) and let Ramon have either 4 front legs or 4 hind legs, and then two tails instead of one so he has 8 limbs all together. But idk.

As for Leo, she definitely gonna have some shark features (the back fin, probably the tail, and maybe the pattern of a leopard shark? idk yet), and more than likely will have some bull terrier features (mostly the face, ears, and maybe the pattern if I don't go for the leopard shark pattern).

Richarlyson I know I want to have highland bull mixed into his design, 'cause of the mushroom helmet + those bull breeds got so much fur it covers their eyes, which just seemed fitting due to most of people's design of Richas :] As for what else to mix in... idk o(-(

Pomme I'm struggling a bit to figure out. I have put down butterfly, so she could have antennas + her butterfly wings (or at least something like her butterfly wings, idk yet if I'm gonna give any of them full-ish wings), but idk what else to mix her with orz

I knew for Sunny, I wanted at least an animal that represented the sun + give her the pattern of a tiger ('cause of her cat hat she wore). And one animal that represented the sun was a ram, which I immediately chose since Tubbo is the one spending most of the time with her, and I still kinda HC him as either a goat or a ram hybrid.

Besides having the pattern and maybe some features of a calico cat, idk what other animal to mix into Empanada's design o(-( Ayayay

Pepito seemed pretty set in stone for me. Having some mix of axolotl, maybe a hint of duck, and more than likely the pattern of some sort of spider into his dragon design :]

It will probably be a while before I even try to attempt drawing these designs, but hey, gives me plenty of time to find out what other animals to mix into the design of some of these Eggs uvu

Also, I probably won't write down any design ideas for Tilin, Juana Flippa, Trump and Bobby since I just don't know enough about them orz I sadly started watching the QSMP quite a few months after those four passed.

Self Para || What A Man Gotta Do

Location: Lima, Ohio.

Date: May 12th, 2020

Notes: Ryder goes back to Lima to ask a very important question. 

Major thanks to the incredible B (@thesongbirdmarleyrose) for writing Millie’s parts!!! ❤️ 

“How do you do that? I’ve tried so many times, and it’s never as great.” Ryder took another sip of his mother’s Cafecito, the taste of its sweet foam still present in his mouth. He had just arrived in Lima, and happily visited his mom so he could prepare for one of the biggest moments of his life. Telling your significant other’s mother that you’re about to propose to her daughter seemed so surreal when Ryder analyzed it in his head, yet, it was the right thing to do. Marley loved her mother, so he was sure she’d appreciate how much he cared about Millie’s opinion.

He’d got lost in his thoughts for a moment before he noticed his mother sitting in front of him, sipping her cup of coffee. 

“Am I led to believe that you being here while your father’s visiting the UCLA med school is a coincidence?” She spoke, raising her eyebrows a little, a warm smile on her face.

“Uh, yeah, I mean, I need to sort something out in Lima. It’s kinda important, so it had to be done this week”.

“I see. Where’s Marley? I bet she’d love to see her mom. Are you guys, okay?” Maria Lynn shuffled a bit closer to her son, concern in her voice was evident.

“She’s fine, yeah. We’re perfectly okay. I just...I need to do this thing on my own, and I told her I was here for work which isn’t exactly the truth, unfortunately, I couldn’t tell her why I’m visiting so yeah…” Ryder spoke very quickly, he didn’t like lying to his girlfriend, but he couldn’t share the reason for his short Lima trip. It’d ruin the surprise. He put the cup of coffee to his mouth, trying to take a sip, not realizing that it was empty.

“Mom, can I have one more cup of coffee?” 

“You’ve already had two, that’s enough.”

Ryder bounced a little bit on his chair. He was so nervous, “If you say so…” He grumbled, before lifting himself and crossing his legs over each other. His mother knew something was up, so she kept quiet as she was drinking her coffee.

“I have a question.” Ryder finally spoke up after a moment of silence, “Imagine a very hypothetical situation. Very hypothetical.” He stated philosophically, looking over to his mother. He took his empty mug and started staring at its Spiderman design, trying to distract himself for a moment.

“So if Freya was dating a guy who wanted to marry her...which I’m sure will happen sooner or later.” Ryder said, knowing that his mom and his sister talked to each other every day, “And he would decide to visit you to ask for your permission...Hypothetically.” Ryder emphasized the last word, “What would you want him to say? What would you wanna hear?”

His mother scrunched her nose up as she listened to his question, “Well, I’m sure he’d rather talk to your dad.” She replied casually, before crossing her arms and leaning back on the chair, a small smirk present on her face.

“Yeah, but what if dad wasn’t here? Like...it’s a hypothetical situation.” Ryder realized that he was now staring at the ceiling, “What if dad had to go on a year-long conference or something. And you’d be here on your own. I know it won’t happen since you’re a kickass pediatrician and an awesome doctor, and you do lectures as well; it’s just...a situation. A possible scenario.” He rambled on as he ruffled his hair, still avoiding eye contact.

Maria Lynn chuckled as she listened carefully to her son’s words, clearly amused by most of them, “Oh, Ry.” She said with a smile, finally meeting her boy’s eyes, “Go and talk to Millie. She loves you, she’s known you for years, I’m sure she’ll be so happy to hear that you two are ready for the next step.” 

“MOM, IT’S A HYPOTHETICAL SITUATION,” Ryder said utterly seriously. He started playing with his fingers for a moment, before he stood up, “Uh, I gotta go.” 

“If it is a hypothetical situation…” His mother started, which caused Ryder to immediately take a seat once again, “If I had known the guy for years, I would happily give him my blessing and it wouldn’t matter what he’d tell me. I would know that he loves my daughter more than anything; it’s everything I could’ve ever wanted for her.” She said with a genuine smile on her face, knowing that it was precisely what her son needed.

Ryder nodded slowly, “Thanks, mom. And remember - it’s a hypothetical situation. So, ugh…” He bit on his lower lip nervously, “Can we keep this conversation between us?” He asked quietly, rubbing his right cheek, not really sure what to do with his hands. 

“Absolutely, honey.”

“Awesome.” Ryder replied, “Awesome. Awesome.” He repeated, before standing up and heading towards the hallway. He knew he was ready, “Uhm, I’ll be back soon. I need to, you know…” He pointed awkwardly at the door after putting his jacket on.

“I’ll make dinner. I was thinking of doing some of your favorites…” His mother said with a massive smile on her face. Food usually perked him up.

“Empanadas!” Ryder almost jumped, bringing up one of his favorite dishes.

“Actually, I wanted to make double cheese arepas. They’ll be ready when you get back.” 

“Oh my, yes, please! Thanks, mom!” His eyes widened as he quickly ran towards the door, “I’ll be back soon! Can’t miss those arepas.” He said excitedly, before storming out of his parents’ house, ready for one of the most important conversations of his life.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Okay, you got this. You got this.” Ryder walked back and forth, making sure that he wouldn’t get too close to the Rose household. He took a deep breath and almost approached the front door before turning back, “No, I can’t. I suck, I don’t know what to say.”

He realized he was talking to himself. Never in a million years, he would’ve thought he’d be so stressed. He closed his eyes for a moment and let himself breathe for a couple of minutes. If someone saw him right now, they’d think he was an idiot. Ryder took his phone and glanced at his lock screen. A small smile curled at the corners of his mouth as he saw himself with his girlfriend, their love so apparent in the picture, “Okay, babe. I’m so gonna nail this”. He said, still staring at the photo, somehow seeing Marley gave him confidence.

He knocked at the door and rocked back and forth on his heels waiting for Marley’s mom to open. When she finally did, Ryder felt speechless. Damn it. While he’d spent so much time with Millie over the past years, he had no idea what to say at that particular moment.

“Hi, Ms. Rose!” He gave her an awkward wave, “I was just in town, and I thought I’d come by and visit.” Ryder babbled, “Just in case, Marley’s fine, she’s in New York, she’s doing great, we’re cool…” He trailed off for a second, trying to find suitable words to describe the situation, “She doesn’t know I’m here, and please, please don’t tell her you saw me. I can explain, I just wanna keep it between us. It’s not what you think.” He lowered his voice as he rambled on, knowing that he probably sounded like a fool. It was clear that he was very nervous.

As Millie opened her door, she was a bit surprised to see Ryder standing there especially without her daughter. Once the young man had insured her that her daughter was okay, she relaxed a bit. As he talked, she nodded in understanding. The poor boy seemed nervous, so it must be he had something important to say or ask. She had some idea what it could be, but regardless reminded herself to keep an open mind. After Ryder explained himself, she invited him in.

He thanked Ms. Rose as he was invited inside. Ryder left his jacket and his shoes in the hallway and followed the woman inside the house. He smiled at some of the memories that involved this place; he remembered the times when he used to visit Marley every day during summer vacation, and they’d just make out in her room hoping that her mom wouldn’t walk in on them. Good, old college times.

Millie continued to watch him as they moved to the kitchen. If it was something important he wanted to talk to her about, then she figured it would be best they were comfortable and sitting. After they were both seated, she asked if he needed anything to drink or eat. After he decline, she sat back and waited for him to start talking about what he wanted to discuss with her.

Ryder took a seat on the couch in the living room, his hands shaking a little bit. After being asked if he’d have anything to drink, he declined. He definitely didn’t need more coffee or tea.

“Uhm, so you’re probably wondering why I’m here…” He started out chewing on his lip a little. It’s now or never.

As the boy spoke, a smile crossed Millie’s face. “It had crossed my mind why you are here.” She hoped that her smile would put him at ease some.

Ryder looked over at Marley’s mom, trying to remember to keep eye contact with her all the time, something he usually struggled with during some crucial conversations.

“I’m sorry, I know I’m acting weird, but I just wanted to talk about something pretty important.” He spoke, remembering his mom’s words. His feelings were the dealbreakers here, “I’m thrilled that Marls and I have made it to New York. It’s been really great so far, we’re healthy, we’re doing okay, and she’s also about to release some new music. It’s kind of like a dream come true.”

“I’m very glad you are  healthy and okay. You two both deserve nothing, but good things and I’m glad you are getting them even if it’s in another state,” she said while mostly teasing about that last statement.

“I love Marley with all my heart; she’s my home, she’s my dream. I believe I can’t be fully happy if I don’t have her in my life. You know how she is…smart, talented, cute…it’s kinda hard to live without all of this in your life.” He grinned, his eyes sparkling as was talking, “I know her, and I know how close you two are, and I just thought she’d want me to talk to you first…it seems like the right thing to do.”

Even though part of her wanted to speak, she knew that it must be hard for Ryder to get out what he was trying to say judging on how nervous he appeared. So, she sat quietly and nodded appropriately.

Ryder took a deep breath for a moment before he continued, “Which is why I’m here, and that’s the reason why I haven’t told her about this trip.” He explained with a small shrug, “Ms. Rose, I would like to ask Marley to marry me, and I would love your permission and blessing. If you say ‘no,’ I’ll wait. You’ve known me for years, and you know how I feel about your daughter. I’ll do my best to make her happy for the rest of my life.”

He still kept his eyes focused on Marley’s mom, hoping that she saw how genuine he was being. Even if his girlfriend’s parents had never made it to marriage, he knew that Millie wanted the best for her child, so he sincerely hoped the woman saw his best intentions. All he had to do was wait for the woman’s response.

His question only came as somewhat of a surprise. Millie knew that the two of them were getting more serious and the next step seemed to be heading towards a marriage. It touched her that Ryder would think to ask her permission. Usually this kind of thing was saved for the father, but since Marley’s dad hadn’t been around for years, she was happy he had thought to ask her. Millie knew how happy Ryder made her daughter. Millie could remember back when they weren’t even dating yet acted like a couple. Marley had been in denial back then, but now she was not shy to say how in love she was. Marriage may not have been in the cards for her, but Millie was glad that wasn’t turning her daughter away from marriage or love. After a few minutes of thinking, she knew that Ryder was expecting an answer.

Millie took a deep breath and looked at the young man seriously. “So you are asking me for my daughter’s hand in marriage? I don’t know,” she paused for a moment before smiling, “How I couldn’t say yes. You make my daughter so happy and I can tell that you really care for her. I know you will do right by her because you have for the past few years. I’m happy that you will be the man she marries. She deserves her happily ever after and I’m glad that it will be with you.  So just in case there was any confusion, I absolutely give you my blessing and I promise not to tell Marley. Welcome to the family Ryder,” she told him with a smile and stood up to give him a hug.

5 Study Abroad Interview Questions You Need to Know

After weeks of finding every excuse in the book to procrastinate, you finally made an appointment with your study abroad advisor. Kudos! But now what? It’s overwhelming, am i right? Thinking about all of the details at once – application, classes, money, flights, and on and on – is enough to make you want to curl up in the fetal position and give up on this venture before you even start.

However, there’s good news. Learning how to prepare to study abroad and knowing these essential study abroad interview questions will help you dominate your advising appointment and be one step closer to stamping your passport.

You can likely anticipate these five main questions from your advisor. If you think about these study abroad interview questions and answers ahead of time, you’ll maximize the appointment time and leave knowing what steps to take next. Plus, you’ll totally impress your study abroad advisor. And hey, study abroad advisors often have input on admission decisions (and ...ahem...scholarships).

Follow these study abroad interview questions to help you move forward with confidence:

1. Where do you want to study abroad?

Wrong Answer: I don’t know. Right Answer: I’d like to study in a Spanish-speaking country.

This may seem like an obvious one, but it’s a big world out there! You don’t have to know exactly where you want to go, but the more you can share about your interests (or where you definitely don’t want to go), the better. If you want to study Spanish, for example, even stating that you want to study in the Spanish-speaking world is a place to start.

It’s important to enter your meeting with a shortlist of destinations that are attractive to you— either different countries or different cities within the same country. Having a strong answer to this study abroad question shows you’re invested in the experience.

If you’re really struggling and feeling equally pulled to Japan and England, or still on the fence if you should go at all, ask for your study abroad advisor’s input. They’re a treasure trove of information and have your best interests in mind.

Still don’t feel like you have a good answer?

If you’re trying to prepare but are still really not sure, that’s OK. Start by thinking in general terms. Read a variety of articles on locations that interest you. What do you like about where you live now, or what do you not like? Did you one time watch a movie about India, and it was super mind blowing? Often, students are drawn to a location, but they are not sure why. Listen to that (and tell your study abroad advisor)!

Maybe you know someone who studied in Sweden, and they rave about it. Or, maybe you know you’re a city person, or cities make you cringe. Either way, let it be known. Out loud. Study abroad advisors are many things, but they are not mind readers.

2. What do you want or need to study?

Wrong Answer: I don’t know. Right Answer: I need to take Spanish 300. And I’d love to take a History class.

If you have already met with your academic advisor prior to your study abroad meeting, you win a gold star. And a cookie. This inquiry will probably end up being the first of the study abroad questions you are asked, as your eligibility for earning credits (if this is your goal) will vary widely based on location, length, and focus of your program.

Many schools match students and advisors based on subject rather than location, so you might need to zero-in on your program focus prior to scheduling your interview (and subsequent prepping for study abroad interview questions). Keep in mind that academic systems around the world vary, so your study abroad advisor will be helpful in determining the equivalent of Spanish 300 on that program in Argentina.

Some students take the opportunity to study abroad to take classes in something totally different than their major. This isn’t as common as the first scenario, but hey, if you go to school in a land-locked locale, when else can you study Marine Biology? If you go this route, make sure you have enough flexibility in your schedule to handle it. It might mean you need to take summer school, or load up on hours next semester, or (gasp) take an extra semester. That’s cool — it’s your life to design! But, make sure you talk to your parents about this decision. In fact, that’s some pretty key study abroad advice. Talk to your parents about the decision in general. Pretty please?

Still drawing a blank?

Make a point to meet with your academic advisor before you meet with your study abroad advisor. Your academic advisor can give you a general overview of how on track you are for graduating, and help you identify key classes that might be easier to take abroad that will still count for course credits.

3. How long do you want to (or can you) study abroad?

Wrong Answer: I don’t know. However long is fine. Right Answer: I’d love to go for a year, but I’m open to a semester if needed.

As you can probably imagine, the longer you study abroad, the more you’ll gain in language skills and cultural competency. You’ll build stronger relationships with those you meet and the more empanadas you’ll get to eat! So, you should go for as long as you can. Because empanadas. But, there are also some factors at play that prevent everyone from being able to go abroad for a year.

Budget plays a big role here. Of course, the longer you study abroad, the more expensive the overall cost will be. That’s a given, but you also get a better value for a longer venture abroad. Although a summer study abroad program may be less expensive on the whole than a semester, if you don’t typically go to summer school, that’s an extra term you’re paying for. Don’t forget about lost income from jobs, since it’s not always possible to work while you’re studying abroad— especially for a short amount of time.

And consider your commitments – sports, clubs, family obligations, jobs – and how long you can reasonably put them on hold. On the other hand, don’t let your commitments or budget concerns hold you back! Even a week or two studying abroad can dramatically change your life. Don’t miss your chance.

Still searching for the answer?

Ask your study abroad advisor what she recommends based on your situation. Study abroad advisors talk to hundreds of students and have a lot of experience to share based on feedback from those students (and personal experience). Be sure to share your concerns so the two of you can discuss them together.

4. Why do you want to study abroad?

Wrong Answer: I don’t know. Or, I want to go to Australia for the beaches. Right Answer: I want to study marine biology and see the Great Barrier Reef up close.

No, really, why do you want to study abroad versus travel, or intern, or volunteer abroad? You can hang on the Gold Coast anytime, but the opportunity to study abroad may not always be there.

Too few students think about this question ahead of time (or at all). What are your goals? Do you hope to learn a language, study your discipline from a new perspective, or meet new people? This may evolve over time. No biggie. But, step one is to actually think about your study abroad goals. And to tell your advisor what they are.

Still grasping at straws?

Reflect, reflect, reflect. If you’re a journaler, get out that pen because writing down your thoughts and goals can work wonders here. If your page is coming up blank, try talking to other students who have studied abroad. See if your school’s study abroad office has a peer advisor or student worker to talk to. Past study abroad students have amazing stories that may spark something you didn’t know was there before.

5. How will study abroad affect your future career path?

Wrong Answer: I haven’t really thought about. Right Answer: It’s hard to know for sure, but at this point I want to be a lawyer, so I hope studying abroad will give me a greater understanding of how law works in a different country.

It’s true. It is hard to know exactly how studying abroad will affect your future. Plenty of students go abroad with one major and return home with another. Or, their entire career trajectory changes course because of a class or even a small interaction that occurs while studying abroad. Once your eyes are opened to the rest of the world, who knows what you’ll decide to do with it?

But, if you do have a clear path in mind, connecting study abroad to your career plans will enhance your academic experience and take you a step closer to getting on that path you are seeking.

Still having a bit of an existential crisis?

Don’t fret. Or, at least, try not to. Just as it is with the other study abroad interview questions, it’s important to think about your answer to this one, but it comes with a caveat. Whatever your answer is, know that it may change anyway.

Be Sure to Ask Your Own Study Abroad Questions

As with any interview, you should come armoured with your own questions as you are preparing to study abroad. Ask questions that you are genuinely curious about. Here are a few to get you started:

What is the day-to-day like on the program you are considering?

How much does it cost? Are there scholarships available?

Is the location/school/program accessible to your disability or health/dietary needs?

What are the next steps and deadlines?

You’ve probably picked up on the theme that I don’t know doesn’t cut it when you meet with your study abroad advisor. All this being said, despite the benefit of reflecting on what’s important to you, approaching the process of how to prepare to study abroad with an open mind and flexibility is just as important as knowing what you want or need. Reflect, communicate, and be honest, and it will all work out beautifully.

What’s Next?

Well, go to your appointment, of course. And prep for it using Vatslya to help you research and track program options, and save relevant articles that might prompt questions. You will be so completely prepared, your study abroad advisor won’t know what to do! How the tables have turned! Plus, you’ll be one step ahead and well on you way to studying abroad. Who knew it could be so easy?
