IN IRELAND! hopefully. I've started looking at programs from St. Kate's website and figuring out expenses. Once school starts up I'm going to start going to meetings and figuring out what I really need to do in order to go. I want to sooooooooooooooooooo freaking bad though!
Who knows, maybe I'll meet a hot irish man and end up living over in Ireland for the rest of my life. I'd be ok with that :) (coming back to visit the family often though I suppose =P)
But seriously, I have always wanted to study abroad and I had thought it would be in Australia. But lately my heart is set on Ireland and I think it'll be more beneficial for me to go somewhere that isn't so close to the American culture like Australia is.
so, the program I'm looking at I'd be taking 2 classes, for a total of 6 credits. Each class would be 2 hours long, 4 days a week. so 4 hours a day of classes total. One is an Irish History/Politics class and the other is an Irish Literature class. Both of them sound extremely interesting to me. It lasts 6 weeks, and from what I've seen it would be somewhere around end of June until early August. so not too long, but long enough :)
AGH the more I look at info about it, the more it seems perfect for me.
Here's to hoping things pull through and I can actually go. My mom said she'll do whatever she can to get me there, so there's an extremely good chance. I have a friend who goes to Milwaukee, and will also be able to go on this program through her school and she's really looking at it too, so I wouldn't be completely out of my element if she went with me!
so, there's my good news. is it next summer yet?!
Sounds exciting! If I were to have ever studied abroad it would have been Ireland fo sho. I hope you get to go!
ReplyDeletehaha thanks i hope so too! i just got an email from someone who works through the program who would be helping me, since it's not directly through my school. she said she's worked with a few students from st kates and stuff. i hope it all works out because the more i read about it the more excited i get and the more i really really really want to go!!
