Fall swiftly approaches

I am so excited for Smith I can hardly contain myself. I am not leaving until the first (or the second? why can't housing make up its mind about when I am allowed to move in) and already I have started packing, planning... convocation should be fantastic (oh those wild and crazy kids.. I miss old school nickelodeon) and this school year will be a busy one.

I was thinking about all of the great opportunities Smith has given me and here is what I have thus far (please add... conversation starter!):
- Pond. Enough said.
- Fantastic classes with teachers, connections, relationships.
- Traveling Europe for a semester*
- Multiple lectures, conferences (I saw Julia Styles last semester.. did youuu?)
- parlez vous francais?
- Jordan House, the greatest house on campus notorious for its parties and awesome people.
- Jordan House study groups
- Jordan House movie nights
- Jordan House ice cream nights
- Senior banquets
-First year/Senior night (be prepared firsties)
- Amherst/ Umass campuses
- Haymarket
- Thornes
- a lot.

Anyways I am kind of babbling.. I just wanted to share my excitement and love for smith college.

* My host dad from Denmark called me yesterday to check up on me... he wants me to visit him next summer. Also, my roomate from Denmark, Sue, is watching the olympic games right now in Beijing. She told me if I ever need a place to stay in China there is always a room available. Neat!
