Attempt #2

So here is attempt #2 at trying to keep this blog thing going. It has been a year and a half since I started it and gave up after 2 posts.

            Ironically, the last post was a bucket list, a lot of which included traveling. Well, here I am now, preparing for my study abroad trip to Cortona, Italy on a Science Maymester. I will be there for 4 weeks taking a Human Disease & Biochemistry class along with and Italian Art History class. Also, one of my best friends is coming too! I can’t wait!

            I decided to get this blog going again so that way friends and family can read about this trip as they choose. I’m sure I will have lots of stories to tell about my adventures! Also, after seeing friends keep track of  and sharing their study abroad trips on a blog, it seems like a practical and fun way to do so. The kicker on this end of things is that I am actually writing this down in a journal and will type all of it either on the trip when I get Internet or when I get back. Plus, I can upload some pictures with it! J Hopefully, I can figure out of to change the dates on the blog for the days they actually occurred. After the trip, I hope to stay with the blog so that friends and family can continue to stay updated with my life.

            Well, here I am now getting myself ready to leave:

Yes, I fell asleep halfway in, halfway out of my closet on a pile of hangers after getting up at the crack of dawn start packing before I leave. I had a final last night that didn’t get over until 9:30pm okay! Then I had to drive back to Suwanee to a room filled with all my clothes in boxes from moving back home for the summer. It has been a hectic weekend, but now I get to look forward to the next 4 weeks!
