Summer 2013

I haven't been posting recently due to the storm of finals and moving and such as the "spring" semester came to a close. I say "spring" because I've been without snow for 6 days now...it's May 9th. Anyways, now I'm at home in MN, making dinner and crossing things off my to-do list, and one of them was this blogging business.

With the start of summer 2013, I'm anticipating one heck of a summer. To start, I'm about to move into our new house in Hancock this weekend with some lovely ladies, including 2 of my roomies from last year. Then summer classes start Monday, which is when my study abroad program will officially start. 3 weeks from yesterday is when our flight leaves Hancock for Chicago, then Frankfurt and eventually on to Tallinn, Estonia. I will then spend all of June in Eastern Europe, Russia and Finland.

Upon my arrival back to the states, I will meet my friend, Camille, who is coming to Minneapolis from France for a summer job, and we will venture off to Duluth together that very night to meet some of my good friends from school for a concert. Yes, the jet lag could be bad, but I am already way excited.

All of July will be spent getting things together, spending time with my friend and getting some relaxing time finally. After this time flies by, I am needed back in Houghton in August to be an Orientation Team Leader once again.

Because all these activities will keep me busier than ever, I'm deciding to start a separate blog just for my adventures in Houghton, Europe and such. I will try to post as much as possible, and perhaps include photos for every week or so.

Oh, speaking of photos, I just treated myself to a new Nikon DSLR -  hopefully that will motivate me to take and post more pictures of the happenings. I'm already obsessed.

I shall post a link to the new blog once I get on that, but now, off to eat some dinner!
