SOAR


Hi, everyone. And by everyone, I mean my avid readers. (YOU.)


So today was ISC-SOAR (Summer Orientation to Academia and Registration) for students attending the International Study Centre at Herstmonceux Castle Fall 2007. It was pretty fab. It was really nice to meet people, finally. Really, though, there weren't that many people there. Like, 40 out of the 130 who'll be at the castle. So not a lot. But Liz Steel (one of the people in charge of making sure we're taken care of next year) was there, and it was nice to hear what she had to say about things. There were other people, too. It was basically a day full of lectures and talks and conversing with new people, and so on. It was kind of nice. The most exciting part? Signing up for classes!!


So...


You're excited, I know...



Wait for it...

Summertime (pre-blog...)

So I'm figuring out how to make this work. People have been asking me since I announced that I was going to Herstmonceux Castle next year for University how they could contact me while I was there. Apparently some of you want to hear tales of my adventures and such. And so, a blog.

What I hope to do is to update this with important information, what amazing trips I've just gone on, schedules (aka when you can come visit me) etc. I'm not going to put my mailing address up, but if you email me (onimonilia@aol.com), I can send it to you once I get it in September. I'm gonna want letters and packages. Seriously. I'm at home this summer, and I want letters and packages, so just imagine how much I'm gonna want them when I leave! (a lot. please send me things.) Um... I'm trying to decide if there is anything else that I should say here. I don't think there is, there isn't anything interesting going on.

I'm leaving for school on 4 September. Classes start 10 September. I can't wait.
If this website doesn't work out, I'll find somewhere else to say things.
Come visit me at Sweet Pea's Ice Cream in Highwood this summer!
