For those who have been following my last two blog posts on the subject, I am pleased to announce that my shift from an animal science major to a journalism major with an animal science minor has gone relatively smoothly, after the initial blow-out with my dad. We sat down and talked it out, really talked it out like we probably should have years ago, and he's willing to let me give this a shot and try my own way, now that he knows I truly want to do it and won't take the easy way out.

So it turns out my dad isn't quite as okay with my thought of changing my major as I initially thought he was yesterday, as he made rather obvious over breakfast this morning. By shouting.

Dunno if any other BL members will be attending but hey, if you are, give me a holler! Maybe we can find each other.

Not entirely sure what to expect, since this is my first time attending a con. I ...
