How to Decide where to go for a semester?

For the past few months, I've been pretty dead set that I would do my study abroad in the Middle East, maybe Jordan maybe Turkey.
But Jordan is only a month trip and then Turkey....I wouldn't be using my Arabic. (which still seems pretty worthless, like oh I just managed to learn a whole new language and I'm just going to act like that was easy and just for some weird sense of "accomplishment")
I keep thinking maybe I should be looking elsewhere to. Go to another country I've never been to like India or revisit an old one like Ireland. (yes the I's have been good to me so far)

I just want to experience something new and be forced into that situation of familiar uncomfortable-ness. Meet new people, learn new things, blah blah blah

I don't want to miss this chance in my life that I can just pickup some of my junk and board a plane; just go and not have to worry about bills, kids...............and have time for myself. and be kind of selfish.

politics.

Im beginning to identify as something less than liberal, which is scary for someone who formed every politic opinion on a liberal identity and has maintained such for the last 5 years.

Back in 2008 when Obama was campaigning hope and change, I begged my sister to get up, go out and vote, for him

Now for 2012, lets just say I have no idea WHO I will be voting for. It was Obama for the last 3 years, and now....Im listening to the Republican nominees.

A few things Im lost on:
are how can a Republican candidate be "Prolife" but be FOR the death penalty, FOR war and aggressive military actions,
THEN Obama a liberal....someone I think is a decent guy and family man, is for the killing of babies in the womb but against the death penalty....

A major problem I have with the Republican Party as a whole....is how you CANNOT criticize within the party. sure the nominees can have cat fights on national TV but on a regular basis its just all the republicans defending/supporting each other, even when they disagree (you can tell because the republican just keeps his/hers mouth shut) constructive criticism= growth.

then theres the scandals. people like newt Gingrich and bill o Reilly, cheat on their wives, and divorce regularly and they get awards for being so "moral" and you dont see conservatives throwing them under the bus.

Fun fact: newt gingrich was cheating on his current wife with his future and current 3rd wife when he heading the oust bill clinton BS.

its almost better to support liberals, because atleast they dont pretend to be extremely religious/moral creatures like their conservative counterparts who are wolves in sheeps clothing.....

i do however like Buddy Roemer, and I admire the fact Rick Santorum sticks to his beliefs and i fairly open about them. (see no surprises Romney?) even though a chunk of his positions do not align with Catholic Church teaching like evolution, death penalty...(and then his hatred for gay people is really.....displeasing)

oh Obama why cant you just be Prolife? and you shouldve just vetoed that last lil bill.....

Im seriously beginning to question love. Ive only been in a relationship for 2 and a half years, and sometimes I just look at him like, "I used to blush when you looked at me, and now.....where is THAT feeling?!"
How can marriages even last 50 years?
How do you retain that feeling for one individual for a lifetime?

so Im a 20 years old 21st century girl and I cannot for the life of me figure how to find blogs I'd like on blogger.......

I'm not sure when a person should give up on their church, but I am.
For one they've been focused on "The end of the world" discussion based on Revelation since my birthday, which is Feb. 20th....and I think their going to keep going for a weeks more even.....
And than now their launching this HUGE evangelization effort on the muslim community, which makes me uncomfortable. I'm not sure HOW to evangelize but....it seems really bad when their going 30 minutes out of their way to target a muslim community....and than church followers are posting these "news" articles from racist/ anti-islam websites there are even less credible than FOX news...
AND THIS shouldnt even come as a surprise to me, because the preacher guy last Easter preached a ton about how Jews were pretty cool, but muslims are just.........................................awful.
Why target ONLY muslims?!!?!?!?!? and how would YOU feel if crazy muslim extremists kept knocking on your door throwing the Qur'an at you?!?!?!?!?!?

on good news i think i found a new church, in the grand rapids/ west michigan area that i am currently residing in. ((i hate to brag, but i think i found HOME. I'm in complete love with west michigan)))
im still crossing my fingers and just hoping that me staying at GVSU pays off and Im not turning down a great opportunity for nothing.
