I recently traveled to Italy and studied there for spring semester. I lived in Arezzo and studied through OU, which kept me on track to graduate and still allowed me to travel around Europe. I am graduating this December, which is really exciting. At the same time it is hard as well. I need to decide whether I will be continuing on to graduate school or entering the work force full time. If I continue my education, I will hopefully be able to remain at OU for another few years. Either way, it is hard to believe that it is already time to graduate!
This semester I am taking 4 other classes. I am taking one English course to finish my minor requirements. The other three classes are through the International Area Studies department in Hester Hall. I am looking forward to meeting new people through my classes and hopefully doing well, while at the same time maintaining a social life. One of the things that I have recently begun doing is volunteering at the Second Chance Animal Sanctuary on 24th Avenue. It is a lot of fun, and I am able to work solely with the cats. Right now there are actually a few kittens there. They are adorable and they are so much fun to play with.
