Study Abroad Blog

Hello everyone! I have decided that since some people don't have Facebook (*cough* Ashley *cough*) that creating a blog will be the easiest way to keep in touch with everybody. I will leave for Galway, Ireland, on January 3rd - that's 2 weeks and 2 days from now!!! I'll be studying history at the National University of Ireland, Galway until May 23rd. On May 25th, my parents will be bringing a group over for a tour of Ireland that will last 12 days! (If anyone is interested in coming on this trip, let me know, and I will have my mom send you some information!)
I am so excited to go to Ireland! I went with Baker's band, choir, and orchestra last January for a 2 week tour of Ireland and England. I had been planning on studying in London, but I fell in love with Ireland! Galway's also a better fit for me than London because it's not as big and I don't think I would freak out as much over moving to Galway for almost five months. I'm coming up with quite the 'to do' list for before I leave - so much to do so little time!

  2. YAY! I'm so glad you have a blog, although I do have Facebook too!! :) I'm so excited for you! Ireland's a place I've ALWAYS wanted to visit. That is on Todd's and my list for "someday". Wish we could afford to go on the tour with all of you! Have a very Merry Christmas and good luck getting ready to go! The date will be here before you know it! :)

  4. I know you'll have a great time and I will bet that you have a "wee" Irish accent by the time you get back.
    Drink a Guinness for me.
