It's good to be back

Reunions have been going smashingly (seeing as none of the people have arrived yet).
It falls so normal to be back at the castle and with these people again, besides the jet lag is was a though I never left.
The food is still miserbale, the people are still wonderful, and the campus is right out of a fairytale book.
I already know that I will be leaving a little piece of myself here in Wales (not literally). Something about being back is so comfortable and it really makes me smile.
Needless to say, I am happy. The reunion folks arrive in a few hours, and we are going to get very busy very quickly. I can't wait to meet these people, hear how their lives have changed, and hopefully have a good laugh.

Ready for Round Two

Although I got pretty bad with updating this blog, It's a new year and I plan to start afresh.
Tomorrow I board the plane which signifies the start of my second year at Atlantic College. Woah.
When I first arrive I will be helping out with reunions for old AC grads. I hope to meet some pretty interesting people and hear about how this college used to be. I am always up for a good story
After that, I get the chance to visit an Aunt who lives near London and work on the inevitable: US University Applications.

Thoughts on returning to AC:
-I'm not ready in the smallest sense of the word
-Summer has been too short (once again)
-I can't wait to see all of the strange yet incredible friends I made last year
-Will everything be so different?
-I sure hope it is beautiful in the summer
-Goodbyes aren't as hard this time
-No one can cook quite like my mother..


Goodbye Oregon, I will miss you..
