Yes, I gave in and created my very own blog.

Hello!
I know I told some of my friends that I would NOT be blogging, but I caved.  I saw a friend's blog and got a little jealous.  I realized that I should utilize this cool technological tool while I study abroad this semester in the U.K. Europe.  I was originally going to stick to just facebook, but some of my family who want to keep up with my travels don't have facebook!  Hence, I created this very awesome blog.
At the moment, nothing extremely exciting is happening to me.  I am just packing and readying myself to go to Brighton, England.  Mom and I have even been looking up some British slang.  For example, do you really know what wanker means?  I didn't realize it was so vulgar, and have decided to not use the word in the future.  So this last week I will spend my time packing, sleeping, and learning about what British words NOT to say so I don't look like a dumb American.
You will hear more from me when I am actually in the exciting country of ENGLAND.
Cheerio! (Not the cereal- it means goodbye in British slang)
