These last 4 months have been some of the best and worsts of my life. The worst parts have been, stressing out over midterms, being away from my family, missing my friends, not being able to understand my teaches, etc. The hardest thing I have ever experienced is being put in a new country andContinue reading “iCharleston Rome”

The College of Charleston has a lot of resources that help students out. There are some that are for safety or for student help. The ones I am going to utilize the most are the Center for Disabilities and Public Safety. It is really cool to me that if I ever got locked out ofContinue reading “C of C Resources”

This picture is from when I spent Fall Break in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Liz, Sally, Thomas, and I rented out a boat so that we could go cave diving. This was by far the best weekend I have spend here in my time in Rome. The water in Dubrovnik is insanely crystal blue as you canContinue reading “Dubrovnik”

Thinking about having a job is very daunting to me, to be honest. I have never had one (other than babysitting) and never want to get one. Only because you are only young once and I am trying to live my years to the fullest before life starts to get real interesting. I am going intoContinue reading “Dream Job”

The academics are said to be a lot harder at the College of Charleston than here at the American University of Rome. At AUR, it is very hard because of the language barrier. I honestly think I would be doing better at C of C than I am doing here. Although, as of right nowContinue reading “Student Life”

This is the delicious lasagna from Mimi & Coco. Not only did I clear my plate but I think I could eat this lasagna for the rest of my life and be perfectly happy. I got to spend the evening with one of my dear friends, Julia. We laughed the night away talking about childhoodContinue reading “Dinner”

During the last 3 months I have been here, I’ve learned that “life is a roller coaster” is the truest statement ever said. I have made the best memories with some of the most incredible people I have ever met. I have gotten to travel all around the world with people that I now considerContinue reading “Study Abroad Experience”

I am probably the worst public speaker known to man. My voice starts to shake, I start to shake, my face gets red, and worst of all, I start sweating like a pig! I hate public speaking, and I can’t ever see myself enjoying doing it. I think my strongest suits academically are my note-takingContinue reading “School Strengths”

This is a photo of caprese salad. It is a mixture of tomato slices, fresh mozzarella, and basil (sometimes with olive oil drizzled on top). This is my favorite appetizer along with bruschetta. The tomatoes and mozzarella is so fresh here and is always in season, it could never be bad! I could go onContinue reading “A Day in the Life”

This semester abroad has put a lot in prospective and has made me challenge myself more than I ever thought I would. I do have a lot of goals for this semester and this year. One personal goal of mine would be to grow as a person and to expand my horizons. I do notContinue reading “Goals for the Semester”
