It's been almost a full month since I was officially accepted to the study abroad program.
Since then, I've allowed several people to know about this big news.

Things I think about
I love the idea of living in London for three months
but I see the summer A-term program for Rome: Creative Writing
and immediately I remember:
thiS MOVIE IS MY CHILDHOOd
Ugh, how I'd love to go to Rome, but alas, I can only choose one program for now.
But I'm a Writing Studies major...
but I can do the things it does in the program in London on my own...right?
Right.
I'm making my own story.

The day it happened
That tiny ringtone chime startled me, the afternoon of November 25th, but I was grateful that it did.
"Spring in London" appeared at the top of the screen. My eyes lit up, I grimaced, and braced for the worst.

Welcome to my blog!
I'M GOING TO LONDON!!!
I've always wanted to share a personal blog with my family, friends, peers, mentors, etc. :)
So, the fact that I am starting this blog for the purpose of recording my study abroad experience makes it even more exciting!
To start off, I'll answer a few unasked questions. More Q/A will be done more in the future as I get more processed:
I found out that I'm officially accepted into the program on November 25th, 2013, to which I shared this wonderful news to my immediate family and a select few people, including some faculty that helped me in the process.
Thanks to Merna Hecht, Mary Hanneman, Jim Liner, UWT Academic Advising, UW International Programs and Exchanges department, and UW English department.
In the coming weeks and months, I'll be queueing/posting more of my personal thoughts and experiences of the pre-departure process with the tag Journey to London. If you're seeing my blog for the first time, thanks for reading! Hope you enjoy my words. :D
Much Love, Stay Classy,
Jillian
