A Semester in Athens
A Semester in Athens. A Journal of Study Abroad at College Year in Athens, Spring Term 2015. Friday, May 15, 2015. Time to Say Goodbye. I hate them so much that I didn't attend the farewell dinner - it just is too much for me. I have a hard time with transitions, anyway.but saying goodbye knowing I will never be in this place again with these beautiful souls is emotional overload. I will miss so much.

A Semester in Berlin
A Semester in Berlin. Tuesday, January 7, 2014. A year ago today I boarded the first airplane of many and started out into what would become one of the greatest adventures of my life. When I left I had no idea what was in store for me. A year ago today I could have never imagined what it was like to live with an amazing host family, or to become so familiar with the trains, buses, trams, and even airports in Berlin that they would become second nature to me. I could have never imagined that I would.

BRING YOUR OWN SUNSCREEN. Watch movies in Spanish. People are extr...

A Semester in Rennes
Sunday, May 30, 2010. Germany. Saying goodbyes. Packing and cleaning my little room. I honestly can't believe I leave to go back to the USA tomorrow. These past four months although they went by incredibly quickly also seemed to last a very long time. I've been so lucky to have all the experiences that I've had. I have so many stories to tell now. My trip to Germany was wonderful! I did fahrrad tours with my opa all around Enniger and saw the Bodies Exhibit in Bremen with my cousin (second cousin? I can ...

Advanced Health & Medical Journalism: An education in review | What I've learned and how I've used it
Advanced Health and Medical Journalism: An education in review. What I've learned and how I've used it. If at first you don’t succeed…. For example, I found a lot of material suggesting that no one knows about or is prepared for the implementation of the SHOP exchanges. But this was difficult to communicate even with substantial data until I had two characters: Peter, the sympathetic small business owner, and Jimmy, the soon to be uninsured bar manager. By incorporating their stories, I wrote wha...These...

Sevilla Señorita
Martes, 23 de junio de 2009. I wasn't necessarily depressed being home, i just felt (and still sometimes feel) antisocial almost, and reserved. The question "How was Spain? Still stumps me - it's either a one word answer, as enthusiastically as I can manage, or it's a month-long story. How can I possibly sum up so many events and feelings in one sentence? Glad to be home? Is also a tough question. Happy to see Bennett, my family, my friends? Viernes, 22 de mayo de 2009. Jueves, 21 de mayo de 2009. Our la...
