"I've been in France for a little over a month now, so I just wanted
to check in and say hello. It's still difficult to be here so far away
from my home and family, but I'm sure now that I absolutely made the
right choice in coming here. In just this short time, I've already been
lucky enough to make some friends, travel a little, and learn a lot.
It's incredible to think about how far I've come and how much has
happened in such a short time here, so I can't wait to see what will
happen in the next 6 months. I'm also in luck that Sean has decided to
spend another year in France, so we plan to meet up in Paris some time
soon. A little Adelphi reunion!
I also really
want to thank you all again. Without your letters of recommendation,
emotional support, and words of encouragement, I wouldn't be here. And
that would have been a terrible mistake. So thank you for convincing me
that I could handle this when I was so unsure about my decision. It
really means a lot to me, and I'll always be appreciative of your help. I
hope all is well with all of you and the department, and I very much
look forward to coming to visit when I return home."
