Fraze/Hunty shipthread thingy

[Fraze]

Dear Frazier Carsten,

On behalf of the University of Tartu, I am happy to inform you that you have been admitted to the University of Tartu, Master’s curriculum in Financial and Actuarial Mathematics.
You have been selected to a self-funded study place.

*Jumps around squealing*

...*Pauses to compose self a bit*

So now that the tripthread has been archived, we need a proper update.

Hunty and I have been talking about what to do after the trip was over since around November of last year. We liked the idea of going back to get Master's degrees, and hoped to do so together. We each applied to three US grad schools. I got accepted to two of them...and Hunty got turned down from all three.

We didn't let that keep us down, of course. We kept looking around, and found that Hunty's old university actually has a very good program for what I'm trying to study. The problem was, by the time I got around to applying, I was 5 days past the deadline.

Once again, we pressed on undaunted. I emailed the university with my credentials, and Hunty's mom pulled some sort of arcane magic and spoke to the head of the department. They held a meeting, and decided to let me apply late. And now, just a matter of minutes ago, I got an acceptance email from them.

This is especially good, because I already had a flight booked. And Hunty has been looking into apartments. Long story short: I'll be going to the same university that Hunty got her bachelor's degree from. She'll work while I study. The program should be 1 year, but it might be longer since I need to take a few prerequisites as well. Once I get the degree, we'll both head to Denmark, and Hunty will go to a university there (for free!), while I work.


Things are looking pretty good right now.

SDFAJSDFHGjhgs!!!

I very much approve of this! Even if you -weren't- going to Denmark... this is as awesome as it gets!

Will you apply for residenceship in Estonia or how will that work out?

[Huntress]

I need to get an MA at some point anyway and Denmark is the best option I've found over recent years. So we may be eligible to get roped off for babysitting duties and the like.

And I did phone-fu for him a while back. We don't do visas, foreign students just apply for a permit of residence, yep. Which he gets to do either at the Estonian embassy (in Washington) or at any local police-and-border-guard-office here, which means he needs to fly here for it.

Good thing he's coming in July xD

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!

I can't wait to hear how this plan will progress.
Do let me know if there's anything I can do to help... in terms of rope pulling and whatnot.

We also has a flat now. It's a good flat. I kinda struck gold with that flat there, which of course means that it'll have a nasty flaw that only appears when we're already moved in. Probably full of vengeful ghosts.

Which generally means that we're shacking up sometime in July. Together with vengeful ghosts if need be. Shouldn't get boring, at least.
