So, over the next week, I'm going to be visiting colleges again. At the end, hopefully it will be easier to decide where I'm going next year.

Tomorrow and Sunday I'm going to Vassar and its glorious library, then Sunday evening and Monday I'll be at Brown. I'm actually having lunch with one of the Classics professors at Brown, who is familiar with my Latin/Greek teacher; that should be extremely interesting. And just seeing the colleges again will be, well, interesting, especially because I've only been to these two in the summer when there were barely any students around.

Then I'm back for a couple of days, might get some Little Shop work done, and then I'm off to Chicago.

I'm actually taking the train out there with one of my best friends, and then spending two days there and sleeping in one of the dorms. It should be fun, especially because I'll be with one of my other best friends, the one who actually goes to Chicago, for almost the whole time. I can't wait to see her again – and to see the place! And I've never visited the University of Chicago before, period, so I'm hoping it lives up to my expectations. But gods, I've heard so much about it.

Hopefully, this will be not only helpful, but fun. I know Chicago will be fun, at least.
