I wish my university provided some sort of an ombudsman, because I had one hell of a job trying to get the school to understand that I planned to study abroad for a semester.


Hi there, I'm still here, and the above is true, I am studying abroad and leaving in two days. I should have regular access to a computer, so posting shouldn't be a problem, but if I miss a Tuesday, please don't fret, I'll be back the next week with an extra word. Good to see us up and running again!

Edit: Heavens, nouns are difficult! I'll start going for multiple sources from now on! Thanks, everyone!

(OT, but is your subject header a Diana Wynne Jones ref? Because if so, that's awesome.)
