I´m all better and everything´s going really well! I miss home quite a lot. I think it´s because of the holidays. I´m so excited to be down here for Christmas though!
So, I´ve been thinking a lot about what´s coming up for me after Ecuador, because a lot of the things, I need to decide about and get set up soon. I really want to know what my family thinks, so give me suggestions please! These are a few of the things I´ve been thinking about:
I can graduate with my B.A. in Communications in July, with some finangling. Not a lot of finangling, just a little. The advisor of the Scroll said I could be Editor-in-Chief of the paper when I come back to, or Managing Editor, and one of my best friends, Chris Kirkham, would be the other. So that would be really fun. I really dread going back to Rexburg right now, but I don´t want to transfer because it would take longer to graduate. Summer semester starts in the middle of April and ends at the beginning of July. So not too painful.
I have an internship lined up with Utah Valley Magazine in Provo, which I could either do this summer or in the fall. I could graduate with a B.A. in University Studies just by doing online classes and not going back to Rexburg. In that case, I could do the internship in the summer and still graduate in July. But then I wouldn´t get to do Scroll.
If I don´t do that internship in the fall (or even if I do), I was thinking about applying to BYU as a new freshman (since I´d already have my degree) and then applying to the film program. The dad of one of the girls here is in charge of who gets into the program, so she said she could get me in. Which might be cheating. But I don´t care. If I did film, which is an awesome program at BYU I´ve heard, I would do a minor in Photography or something. I wouldn´t get a degree probably, because if I did, I´d have to redo generals. Anyway...
Also, I could go teach English for a semester or a year in Taiwan, which is a paid position. Or I did an interview with a program in India and I could go there for free and teach journalism.
I don´t know what to do. Mostly, do you guys think I should go back to BYU-I in the summer, the fall, or not at all?

I say, be done with Rexburg. You can get a good editing job wherever you go. Go to BYU!!
I say, finish up at BYUI this summer, do the Scroll,graduate, go to BYU in the fall or winter, whichever coincides with getting your degree at BYUI,as a freshman. Get the degree you started out to get. Don't give up what you have gained.
