Tell Me What You Think

Okay my friends, time to weigh in.  Don't be shy.  I need opinions and advice and I'm looking to you to hook it up.

It's decision time for Ames.  I have had the honor of being accepted to two amazing schools: Westminster College in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Prescott, Arizona. 

This is on a schedule though.  When I got my acceptance letter from Embry-Riddle, I have until May 20th to send a tuition deposit in order to hold my place.  So I've got to figure this all out in about a week and a half.

Embry-Riddle is a respected name in aviation, that's for sure.  I would love to go there.  This will require moving, of course.  I don't know anything about Arizona.  I know it would be nice to venture outside of Utah for a minute.  I've checked into a few apartment complexes, looked at some of the restaurants in the area for employment opportunities, but there is only so much a two-dimensional map can tell you.

I've been to Westminster before.  It's been about ten years, but I know how to get there, I have a pretty good idea of what to expect.  There's something to be said for that.  I tend to be an anxious kid when it comes to change and things I'm unsure about.

Either school would give me an education I could be proud of.  I just don't know which one to commit to. 

So if you have any thoughts or advice, don't hesitate to comment.  I've also got a poll going if you want to vote.  I'd love to hear what you have to say!
