One week to go....

As many of you all know, I will be studying abroad in Cork, Ireland this coming fall semester! I officially leave in exactly one week, and I could not be more excited! (still a little nervous though and a little overwhelmed by thinking about packing however...) One of my close friends, Spenser, had a blog while she lived over in Europe for 3 months, and I just loved reading up on her adventures and seeing her pictures, that I thought I would TRY to do the same while I'm away. I thought this would be a great way to substitute for sending out weekly emails so that you can still know what I'm up to over in Ireland. Also, it would be a great keepsake for myself! 

So I have never done any blogging before, but I hope I'll be able to figure it out and keep up with it!
