So mid-terms are this week, meaning we are in the middle of our time here.  I haven't noticed I was very homesick lately which was nice, except randomly the other night after Laura and I watched Spanglish.  I don't know what provoked it really.  Homesickness abroad is different from homesickness when I'm at State I've found, too.  I guess because ( Read more... )

1.) I love Italy ( Read more... )

Valencia is a beautiful city and Spain is a very interesting country but I am not sad to say I am not staying for the entire academic year.  Studying abroad brings several conflicting feelings that are impossible to explain.  Love it here, but I won't be sad to come home in December for good.  If you want to go abroad, go on vacation, not for ( Read more... )

I leave for Spain tomorrow.  I don't want to go, but I do at the same time.  This has been such a huge disaster leading up to leaving, so I hope so much that things go smoothly and that it's worth the drama.  I will miss all of you and e-mail me (nielse65@msu.edu)!  <3

i am writing this during my 7th hour of being at newark airport.  this really has been the business trip from hell...but it was actually an awesome experience at the same time.  i worked really hard and it was great to see all of my hard work actually materialize.  it was great and the event went awesome, even though it was super rough ( Read more... )

I'm leaving tomorrow for San Francisco to get my Visa to go to Spain.  I'm really nervous about flying tomorrow since it's the 4th of July.  I'm sure things will be fine, but I get really anxious about silly things.  It also makes me think about how much of our "independence" we've lost due to happenings in the past.  The fact that I have to fear ( Read more... )

The sun listened.  Yay ( Read more... )

Dear Sun,

Please come out.  It's June 18 and I can't remember the last time I saw you.  This is becoming absurd.  I miss you.  What happened to summer?  You have 3 more days to come back.

Love,
Megann

P.S.  I got 2 hours of sleep last night but it was so worth E! trash tv and girl talk <3  I don't want to be at work anymore.  My friends are not ( Read more... )
