The Erasmus Mundus scholarship will cover all her college tuition. It will also cover one thousand Euros per month living expenses. In addition, it will also cover a stipend of eight thousand Euros for her traveling between the United States and Europe. Alexandra is beside herself with joy. I told her this is the universe recognizing and acknowledging the woman she creates herself to be. It's truly awesome. We both cried when we got the news. I'll be visiting her at least four times during her tenure in Europe, and have already eagerly started planning my travel. To those of you who've sent congratulations, Alexandra and I are blown away by your support. I'd like to respond to each and every one of you individually. I really would. That would require about five hundred responses so far: to e-mails, phone calls, voicemails, likes, comments, and messages. This is a big celebration party. Please accept this, my generalized thanks and appreciation to all of you and to each of you - individually and personally. I would like to say in honor of my daughter and best friend Alexandra that the Erasmus Mundus scholarship didn't just drop out of the sky onto her lap. It didn't just "happen" to her. This is the result of years (at least a decade and more) of hard work which she made look easy and fun. |
