Lemming

I have resisted creating a blog for some time now.  But,  as Queen would say "another one bites the dust".  And although I am not sure whether or not they intended that to be a reference to death, to me it means the same thing as "just bite the bullet and get it over with" but in a past tense, third person kind of way :)  As to the association with dying, creating this blog will probably kill any misconstrued, but much appreciated reputation I might have of being normal, interesting, or coherent :)  So there you go.  And if not, it will at least reveal my obsessive over-use of smiley faces and commas :)

I gave in to creating a blog for the sole purpose of documenting my upcoming trip to europe, which should help make my posts at least slightly interesting by nature of the subject matter alone, and if not, at least there should be some amazing pictures!

I am leaving on April 30th at 6:00 am from Las Vegas, and I am so excited!!! I won't be back home until June 24th, which is marvelous :)  The program I am going with is the Spring Art History Study Abroad officially.  We are going to five countries in the following order: Greece, Italy, Spain, France and England.  We will be visiting tons of museums and historical sites during the trip, but we do have many half-days to ourselves.  So if anyone has any suggestions as to how I should spend that time, I would love to hear it!

Now, I need to get studying, as I am in the middle of finals, but as the creation of this blog makes obvious, I am having a really hard time keeping the daydreams at bay.  Wish me luck! :)
