I’ve just finished exams at UT Knoxville and I’ve got an exciting summer coming up. My last exam was May 5, and on May 8 I’m headed to south Florida for a two-week vacation with some friends. We’ll be spending time in Key West, Key Largo, the Everglades, and Miami.
On June 1, I’ll be flying to Washington D.C. for a summer internship from June 1-July 10. I am working 3 days per week in the Department of Outreach and Communication at the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars, and I’m working 2 days per week doing communications at the American Red Cross. I’ll be living at a youth hostel called “Loftstel,” that way I can save money on rent and hopefully meet some cool people. I’m really excited about being in Washington D.C. for the 4th of July.
After my internship ends on July 10, I’m headed back home to Nashville to relax for a bit. Then on July 20, I’m taking off to Buenos Aires, Argentina where I’ll be studying abroad for the fall 2009 semester. I’m participating in a Spanish immersion program at the “Universidad del Salvador,” a 9,000-student, Jesuit school in downtown Buenos Aires. Classes end on November 10 (because southern hemisphere schools have a reversed calendar), and I’ll hopefully get to travel around South America until mid-December.
I’m planning to blog bi-weekly about my internship and study abroad experience on this blog! So, stay tuned for more postings.
If you interested in receiving email notifications when I update this blog, send me an email and I’ll include you on the list.
