I am really hoping that we are able to make this trip. For me this is probably one of the best opportunities I have ever had, because this trip would satisfy all of my remaining requirements for my Spanish Minor (which would take me another full semester to finish otherwise), as well as give me a very important resume builder (since I am hoping to go into bi-lingual web design with some software translation on the side). The biggest downside however, is being away from my puppies, and possibly even my wife. I feel that it is best though, because it enables me (and if Angie goes it will also have major benefits in her profession) to someday get a job which will allow us to buy a house (with plenty of room for our Yorkie-butts to run and play) and live life to the fullest. I hope no one thinks that we would just leave our babies so we can run off and play... this is a huge decision for us.
