I'm in Europe?

Hey Hey. 

So, I am notoriously bad at updating this thing. Its a love/hate relationship here.

I'm in Salzburg for the fall 2008 semester. 

I have been posting photos here.

Enjoy. More photos up every Monday (ish).

Austria

Yawn...

It has been a great summer. Things in my life have changed quite drastically since last I wrote here. I worked at Starbucks up the road from Judson for the summer and tried to save as much money as possible. That included me biking to work, taking the bus, and begging my co-workers for rides. I made it a whole year without a car! Currently, I have been 13 months without a car, car payment, insurance or gas... I think I chose the right year for that.

I made the Dean's List this last semester. An achivement that my mother is quite proud of - I gave her the certificate. Right now I am in West Virginia gearing up for a semester abroad in Austria. There are 12 of us in total (including the professor who is going with us), and we come from four different colleges throughout this region of the U.S.

I'm taking two history classes (a WWI, and a post WWII), elementary German, and digital photography as part of the program. The other main component of this study is a large travel element. We have 11 free weekends to travel anywhere in Europe that we can get and get back by rail. The program includes an unlimited EURail pass.

I hope to post pictures and regular updates here. I depart the US tomorrow morning. Cheers.
