I finally got in contact with my aunt in St. Croix. Her offer is still standing and I'm still welcome to stay with her in St. Croix for a couple weeks. She thinks that there isn't much to do in St. Croix and that I should develop my proposal a bit more. Apparently alot of historical sites and museums are closed during the off season (anytime that's not winter). She also suggested going to New York as an alternative. Alot of Cruzans move to New York and she thinks that I could maybe get some informative interviews. If it hadn't taken so long for my first proposal to fall through I may have considered going to both places getting first hand accounts from family members and having my own first hand experiences. Plus I have alot of family in New York with whom I could stay with and if I took the Greyhound to New York and had taken my flight out of Kennedy it probably would have been less expensive over all... Oh well.
It's getting down to the wire and I really need to get things rolling so I don't want to think about the possibility of New York. Although I'm uncertain about my walkabout I have to suck it up and go through with it or else I may end up someplace that I really wouldn't benefit from. I have a feeling that because what I plan on doing isn't a set program (like Morocco) and will be depending greatly on myself, I'm not going to be certain about much from here on out. Uncertainty seems to be the theme of my Senior Year.
Well, until next time...

I believe that "uncertainty" could also be labeled as "risk." :) You'll create a great experience wherever you go and however long you are there.
