Hi!

Are there any Americans on here that have gone to/are going to college in a different country? Like, not just for a semester or year. I’ve seriously been thinking about doing this because 1. It’s cheaper, 2. I want to improve my French, 3. I am very interested in other cultures & I want to major in Global Studies or something

I was thinking Quebec, like Concordia or McGill because I don’t know of any other English-speaking colleges there, and then doing a year or so in France. But I know that college works differently in other countries, like, people go to a two-year school after high school and only 3 years of college or something, and nobody lives on campus... And my college counselor doesn’t seem to know anything about going to college abroad so she’s no help. 

It would be very helpful if you could tell me about your experiences, especially if you transferred from a US school to one in a foreign country. I’m not in college yet but there is a lack of info out there about this specific topic; I guess it’s very uncommon for Americans to enroll in a school in another country. Thanks!

I want to scream, cry because of me being cupioromantic asexual

I feel like im betraying the aro community by wanting a romantic relationship, and god certainly knows some parts of the e community aren’t helping that

The asexual community’s focus on reaffirming their ability to love makes me feel isolated from there

I just feel so tired

I feel isolated from all sides

The feminine urge to just say fuck it and become an au pair on the other side of the world

sometimes i think about how constellations are an entirely man-made construct and don’t actually exhist inherently in nature. i mean, the universe just gave us stars, and we saw art and myths and stories in them. the capacity that humans have for seeing purpose in the incidental makes me realize just how lonely we are on this planet, desperately searching for meaning elsewhere in the universe.

Happy 1 year of Pride Deck! On this day this project started and so many people supported it to make it possible, and it all started with the asexual card. Thank you guys so much from all of my heart💜
