Mmm, Finals, End of Year, all that Stuff

Alas. I have arrived at the end of another beautiful academic year. Yes, dear reader, next year, I will officially be a JUNIOR and proud of it! Things I am looking forward to:

• Studying abroad in Bath, England
• Traveling a lot while abroad
• Living in an apartment with two of my favorite people: KJo and Sadie
• Junior Ring Week (we'll see how this one turns out...)
• Rings!
• Being done with almost all my Gen Eds (argh French, one more semester)
• New freshman, not that I'm tired of the old ones but it is time for some fresh ones
• Seeing what happens with the BCM and hopefully being instrumental in the changes that are coming
• Opportunities for future classes with Rafferty, Lorentzen, Harding, and McAllister (yes, I am an English geek)
• Autumn in Bath
• Spring at UMW
• Writing many letters and sending many postcards to friends back home (I'm so going to be broke from postage costs!)
• Receiving letters from friends back home!
• Going to see live soccer matches in England
• Exploring the places where J.R.R Tolkien and C.S. Lewis and J.K. Rowling and Shakespeare and Jane Austen walked and...wrote (the geek has reappeared)
• Talking to friends on skype
• Growing in my relationship with Christ and learning more about Him and how He pervades my life.

So I guess this post hasn't really been about finals-- I got distracted. Instead of spending this time to reflect on the past few months, I look forward to the futures and all the possibilities therein.

My address in Bath is...
