We are in the final strech of this amazing adventure. Tomorrow we head to Auckland from Queenstown and then home in 3 days!
As I look back on this semester I cannot help but think that study abroad should be required for all students! While I know that is impossible with the economy and other factors, as I have said before, it is an experience that cannot be overlooked.
However, I am super excited to get back to Chicago and then on to DC to finish up my junior year. I have a planned list of things to do once I get back to GW. If you are heading there too you should check out at least a few of them...
1) Take a midnight monument tour to the Lincoln, WWII, Washington Monument, and the White House- This is my normal route for a mounment tour at any time of day. Sometimes I like to switch it up and add the Korean or Vietnam memorials and if I am up to walking a lot more I will go to the Jefferson and FDR memorials.
2) Order a chicken ceasar pita at Pita Pit- This is some of the best food on campus. Made to order with almost any add-on you can imagine.
3) Read a paper copy of the GW Hatchet- for 5 months I have been trying to keep in touch with happenings at GW by reading the online Hatchet. I must say it is not the same as holding a newspaper in class. Plus the crosswords aren't as fun.
4) Spend time on the 4th floor of the Marvin Center- I have missed my student organizations so much since going abroad. I cannot wait to get caught up with Student Global AIDS Campaign, Voices for Choices, and the Student Association.
5) (last but certainly not least) Visit with friends I have not seen since May!- I have so many stories to tell everyone and I can't wait to get a chai at Starbucks and explain my adventures!
Thanks for reading guys! Again, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to email me at kwollner@gwmail.gwu.edu.
Next time I blog I will be in the States!
