Meh...
So my advisor decided that 1. she was going to present the paper (mind you, I was first author) and 2. she would only give me $1000 for the trip, which going to Europe (and having a $300 fee just to get into the conference!) didn't seem worth it to me. I also don't really know any relatives there, meaning I'd get a hotel. It also was scheduled for during the last week of classes when I would have some big assignments due, so I decided it wasn't worth it. I could go to Europe and visit relatives and not pay for a hotel and end up spending a similar amount of money, except I could have it be pure vacation, so...
I found out later I could've gotten money from the department as well that might've covered most of my remaining expenses, but oh well.
