Last tuesday I submitted my applications for Seattle and Warwick, hopefully I'll be selected for Seattle. Anyhow, I'm fairly confident that I will be selected for one of those two and won't loose out completly in the exchange trip application game.

I think that the Seattle exchange programme doesn't have quite as many applications as the ERASMUS ones, so hopefully I can expect a positive e-mail in the first or so week of february, as the application process finishes on January 31st 2008.

If I get selected I need to get a J1 visa for the United States, book flights, probably with British Airways via London (which is good as I'll be able to check out the new Terminal in Heathrow), agree with LMU officials what courses I'll take (so I get the maximum of 14 Credit Points) and so on. :-)

I think I'd also like to buy a new camera for Seattle, to get the best possible pics from the trip. A triband cellphone would be good too, so I can actually phone people in the USA.
