Thanks James...The most condensed version would be...if I want a roof over my head the next three years while I'm trying to work my way through undergrad and grad school...I really need to stay on my parents' good side (meaning, if I need cash and I'm out...I need to be able to go to them!). One reason I can't wait to have my own place...but except for being in grad school (and who knows about housing at that point) I most likely won't have a place to call my own until I'm about 23...POO! I'm barely earning enough to pay tuition costs right now! So asking to make TWO trips...more likely than not, it's out of the question!
And Mango, I'd love to come see you if I make it to London...I was told that we'll have two long weekends and if I only take one class instead of two, I'll have even more free time!
