So the
countdown begins! For two years I have planned, waited, and watched as my
dream of traveling abroad to another country has finally come true. Yes, 11 days from now I will pack up the rest of my belongings, say good bye to my mom and board a plane
for the Emerald Isle.
It’s
bittersweet, over the past couple of days I’ve felt a sinking pain in the pit
of my stomach growing with each passing day. I don’t want to say goodbye to my
mom I don't want to leave my cat or my friends. But I know after that goodbye and when I land the adventure will begin!!!!
I guess I should
tell you a little more about myself; more than that---> little blurb over there. It’s been
my mom and I for the past 14 years, and I wouldn’t have it any other way, she
put me through high school and got me off the college two years ago. And now, here
I am, 11 days from traveling to Ireland for an entire year.
So where
will I be studying? I’m glad you asked.
The University
of Limerick was established in 1972 as a National Institute for Higher
Education. They serve over 12,000 students and have 1,400 dedicated staff
members. It is quote “A young, energetic and enterprising university with a
proud record of innovation in education and excellence in research and
scholarship.” Limerick has a wide range of courses and the campus is set
alongside the Shannon River.
While away,
I’m studying English which includes: Studies in Irish Poetry, Studies of a
Major Irish Author, Intro to Literary Theory, Intro to Irish Music and Dance
and much more.
That’s all
