Send Me On My Way

Channeling my high school self...you know when I was in AM in love with Rusted Root. 'Send Me On My Way' was the song played in the background of our graduation slideshow..and it was a song in Matilda if I'm not mistaken. I'd be lying if I said I didn't almost cry during our senior slideshow, and this song is definitely one of my favorites ever. Now that I've justified the title...somewhat...I'm being sent on my way to EUROPE! It's weird, in high school I always wanted to study abroad, but now that I'm literally on my way to travel by myself, it's unreal. Looking back at when I was kid, Matilda was one of my favorite movies because I related to Matilda. No, I didn't have vain, self-centered parents...or even another sibling, but I've always had this really awkward love for learning about things, reading, and feeling smart. I love feeling smart. Now that I'm older, I want to be a lot more like Ms. Honey...I want to be that teacher that inspires someone to be the grown up that I wanted to be when I was younger. So, in sum, I am SO glad that I had all the teachers I had, all the good ones and especially the bad ones.


Wait, what?


Yeah, I said it. The bad teachers, too. I hate using the term 'bad' teacher, because who knows, they could have been someone else's favorite..they just did not teach the way I needed them to. Those teachers have helped me realize that it's crucial to be versatile for every student because you never know what impact you could have on their acquisition of related subjects in the future.


Yes, I know this is a travel blog, so I'll get on about that. I'm leaving for London with Jessica and Ebony on Thursday, and we will be spending a few days in London and then a couple in Brighton before we head back into Leeds. After that, I plan on sticking around my dorm for a while before I leave for Liverpool and then..ROME! It's going to be quite the adventure considering I will be camping in Rome, and then head off on my trip of the eastern bit of Western Europe. When I get back expect pictures and fun stories from...
Italy, Croatia, Slovenia, Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium!




Signing off until my return...
