Hello, all!
I decided that creating a blog would be the best communicative outlet while I'm out of the country. Feel free to visit daily, leave comments, etc.
Here's the scoop:
From 1/2/2010-1/22/2010 I'll be parading around the UK with fellow classmates and a couple of Elmhurst's finest professors. We'll spend the first two weeks in London, where I'll be teaching at All Saints Catholic School. On 1/10 I'll be in Paris. 1/17-1/18 Bath and Stonehenge. 1/19 Stratford. 1/20 Oxford. While we're gone, I'll also have the fabulous opportunity of seeing: Lion King, Les Mis, Arabian Nights, and one Shakespearian play.
I have no doubt that I'll be echoing the words of Samuel Johnson upon my return to Chicago:
“You find no man, at all intellectual, who is willing to leave London. No, Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford.”
Until then, please visit frequently!
Immensely looking forward to Heaven on Earth for any English-writing major,
Carla
P.S. I'll be staying at Citadines Apartments. I'll post an exact mailing address as soon as I arrive in case anyone is interested in sending snail mail :-)
