School’s Not Out For the Summer

School’s Not Out For the Summer

It’s official– roughly one month until I return to America.

Fall is quickly turning into winter, exams are approaching within the next two weeks, souvenir shopping is becoming a norm and the more my program winds down I realize how much I am going to miss this place. It’s a bittersweet feeling though, as my other half can’t wait to see my family, friends, pets and Loyola. I want to congratulate all of my friends and coworkers of the Class of 2012! I wish I could have been there to celebrate on campus with my Loyola family.

Although I am sad, I know many good experiences lie ahead in starting the third year of my college career and taking up my new position as Closer Look Editor at the University’s Student-Run Newspaper, The Phoenix. Despite the busy work and school days of a Loyola student, I will always remember the memories and friends I made in Australia. Thank you to everyone at home who supported me in doing this study abroad, as well as everyone I will leave here that helped make this place feel a little more like home.

“One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.”
