If you brought your economics book on holiday, you must be a girly swot.
Me:
a what? A squat?
Colleague:
a girly swot. It means you study all of the time.* A male who does this is called a beastly swot.
*Hm. I'm not in the position to confirm or deny this label.
On August 15, 2009 I interviewed for and received a Rotary International Ambassadorial scholarship. Rotary International is sending me to study abroad in New Zealand for an academic year and there I will act as a goodwill ambassador on behalf of Rotary and the USA. I am so thrilled to have this opportunity and will use this blog to share my before-during-and after experiences.
